After sleeping off most of yesterday, I got off to a good start today. Not only did I update my iPhone to iOS7, I actually made it outside! At this very moment, I’m sitting in a coffee shop (drinking a cup of coffee for the free wifi) with Andreas and Bernadette – working on my Portfolio! I know, right?
I’ve decided that my brief episode of narcolepsy was just my body relaxing after two months of stress. I didn’t exactly realize just how much stress I was under until now. That’s something I will have to prepare myself for, and get used to in the near future. Teaching isn’t for sissies. At all.
Before we get to that though, I’m still hoping to do my B.Ed. (Hons) in Language Education next year. I’ve applied for the HB & MJ Thom Bursary, and am working on other applications for scholarships for next year. My application for the actual program has been acknowledged and is currently being processed. Acceptance into the program is 98% in the bag, so everything depends on wether or not I get funding. Without enough of it, there is no way I will be able to study further. (Yes, I have considered part time studies and full time work – but high school teaching just does not allow for postgraduate studies.)
Now it’s back to reflections for the portfolio.
Catch you later!
