going into year three

i signed away another year of my life today.

the past two weeks have been grueling and it's hard to happily sign my contract for the next 12 months (september 2008 to august 2009). but i know, in my right mind, that the school takes great care of me (i got a decent raise), i love my coworkers (with only a few exceptions) and compared to a lot of the office jobs my friends have or other english teaching jobs friends have had, i can't complain about the schedule. and really, i can't complain about the kids either because they are pretty good kids in the whole scope of possible kids.

i don't think i'm a horrible teacher, but i know it's not my true passion. i'm still trying to figure out what i want to do with my life, but until then, i need something to pay the bills. so for another year, i'll be doing what i've been doing.

year three has GOT to be easier than year two, right?
