Oh spring break. So far, so good. Not spectacular, but definitely nothing to complain about. I just spent the entire day with my cutest nephew ever, Isaac. We had way too much fun.

Spring Break?!
So, I was inspired to enter the world of blogging by keeping up with the DailyMacoo and pdelacru. Living on my own, it seems to be a good way to get my "talking" out when I'm all my byself (That's how my cousin G used to talk).
It's late Sunday night, and I don't have work tomorrow because I'm a teacher and this is the week of Spring Break. Usually, I'd be ecstatic. You know, "SPRING BREAK! HELL YEAH! WOOHOO!" but this year, not so much. As soon as the bell rang on Friday, I just took a deep breath, grabbed my keys, hopped in the car, came home, and slept. I don't have any big plans for the week, but that's the beauty of it. I can wake up and decide right then and there what I want to do. No time constraints. It's all up to me. I don't think I'd even have the energy to travel anyway. I'm getting old. Yes, at 26 I feel old and burnt out. I know my drained feeling is a result of teaching. Don't get me wrong, I love my career for sure. These children are so great, but this year is particularly more difficult because my low level learners are the lowest I've ever had. Teaching Kindergarten--it's a high risk, high reward type of gig. As a result, I am quite exhausted and just want to rest for Spring Break. On the other hand, it would've been really great to get away from Seattle for a little bit. Snow during spring break isn't exactly my ideal weather for a week off.
