But really, it was awesome. Despite all this common core bullshit, I got to see (most of) my students grow. Some failed, some flew in the middle, and some exceeded my expectations by a landslide, but in the end it's all coming down to their test scores. Kinda sucks. Hopefully enough of my students will pass and I'll still have a job. :unsure:


Quitting Smoking

Has anyone ever quit smoking before? I'm on day 3 and while the cravings are getting less frequent, they feel more intense. I made it through work today without wanting to kill anyone (I'm a teacher), so that must be a good sign, right?

 

Ugh this suuuuuucks but I'm so sick of not being able to breathe. Plus it's pretty embarrassing since I've attempted to quit a few times and having my boyfriend see me fail each time didn't feel good.

 

Any motivational stories maybe?
