May Madness

May is the month of MADNESS!! Holy cow, it's been so stressful at work the last few months. I think it's a combination of a few things:

1. Not many days off besides weekends

2. Students are ready for summer vacation

3. Teachers are ready for summer vacation

4. Students are apathetic towards the work

5. Teachers are apathetic but must pretend to care so students don't become more apathetic.

So with this magical combination, you can imagine how fun work is right now!

So I agree with this image below. Students are driving me crazy.

My patience is gone and so is my kind heart. I feel a lot of anger towards my students and I yell at them. This is really bad, people. Who am I becoming? You don't even want to know. But alas, I have a few more weeks to go and then it will be summer. I can survive until then, right?

So in the meantime, this is my mantra:

If I can do this until June 20th it will be an absolute miracle. 

Note: June 20th is still forever away. All of you teachers in the west please don't taunt me with your summer plans yet.
