That time of the (school) year...

... when the seniors hate everything to do with school, don't care about the rules or petty consequences of breaking them (white slips? please...) and never ever miss an opportunity to remind you of what they think.

... when planning for next year's classes - and teaching assignments - begins, and I begin wondering whether to keep doing what I'm doing, and why I decided to do it again for one more year.

... when the enthusiasm and optimism that I had in August begin to fade, and my focus and effort in planning seem to falter.

... when I head to monster.com to remind myself that I really will never go back to what I was doing before I started doing this.
