Sunday morning going into Week #5!
I caught a cold last week... and my body is still fighting it off as best it can do... I've been sick for 6 days so far! I went to work sick and it was difficult to get through, but I did it! We can't really have a "sick day" because no one can cover our classes. Isn't that crazy?! Last semester I tried to get a day off because of the cast on my ankle and it was difficult to go to work, but they said NO and I had to go to work anyways. They let me leave early, but that didn't make any difference because the issue was trying to get to and from work. Oh, well... So I've been home all weekend trying to get better... I think for the most part I am, but I still feel like BLAH.
This semester has been a rough start, but when I look back time is going by quickly! Soon we'll be in the halfway mark of the semester. I am already looking forward to summer vacation!!! I was thinking a lot lately that I just want to travel and go to various countries to volunteer as a teacher. That would be an amazing experience. How do I do that?? I should look into that. :) I'm a nomad. I can't stay in one place for a long time. I'm always on the move to the next adventure and next place in this life. I feel content with my students and classes this semester and I am looking forward to my last semester in the fall. It will be difficult to leave Japan, and I am ready for what's next...
