Overheard...
Earlier this week, at a class all of us TFA folk have to take, one of our corps members said something that I think sums up what many of us are feeling...

"I'm not going to quit, but everyday I don't want to be here."

It may sound whiny, and it is certainly easy to criticize. But it's an unwitting place to be, made more strange by sharing it with other corps members slogging through their first year of teaching.

Everyday. Everyday. But we go in.

Even if we're praying for snow days.

Come on snow, come on.

given that i live in texas....you get snow days in baltimore? does it have to snow 12" in an hour for that to happen? hope your luck is better than mine. everytime snow was forecasted when i was child, i would get almost no sleep because i would look out the window every five minutes to see how much snow there was...usually not enough for school to be canceled which made for a sleepy day at school.
