Manic Monday

Nothing much to write about Classes were ok. I had 6 in a row.
Its the last week of February.


I am trying to brace myself for a nice month in March.

Right now I am making many mistakes and I dont know what I can do about them. I am going to bed right now because I feel horrible. I wish I knew what the answer was.

Work isn't supposed to be as stressful as it apparently is. I want to make work more enjoyable but I dont know how.

This is Manic Monday Part II

I went to bed last night feeling horrible. Maybe its a Monday thing. I think everyone in the world can agree Monday is the worst day of the week. Its just back to the grind. Working at Yale poses many challenges.

I think Life abroad has been difficult for me at times but thats how life goes.
This week represents no particular events that stand out at the Academy. However, this is the final week of February and the closure of what could be called the semester. There will be huge changes in March.

I will have more kids. There will be no Ma2 class. Carrie will be gone. The school is essentiall being restructured.I am looking forward to the changes.

Yesterday, my darling was super busy on the phone. WE went to work early in order to get some extra work done.

I am trying to compile a book for my boss for a couple classes. I am trying because its going to be necessary to have things done in March but its still a slow process.

I know work is OTL and also things are happening beyond our control but I wish we could find a way to relax. I listen to Korean all the time. I have kids screaming in our office, I have kids who will not listen to simple instructions like please go away, be quiet, get out of my chair, things like this and yet I put up with it.

I learned a long time ago that its best not to complain. I am just wanting to enjoy the time I have and not worry about ridiculous things. I do like going to work and I like being a teacher. I think Yale has some huge problems but unfortunately I can't do anything about it.
Earlier this week I wanted to work more but I can't because I have to wait for my boss or whatever to finish something. I dont have a problem with working hard but no one seems to talk to me so I feel in the dark. I am living and learning but all I want is to find a way that's all.


Nothing is more important to me than just enjoying the time I have. I am dedicated to being the best I can be in work, my personal life etc. I feel shame when I fail at anything. I dont understand why my effort is not good enough.

As I said maybe its just a Monday thing but I felt very bad last night for not being able to understand the situation. ITs now Tuesday and I am hping to work harder on my endeavors and forget the happening of yesterday.
