Just when I think I have it under control...

I've mentioned how hard work is here, haven't I? Well, I guess I can't really say it's hard because I think I was pretty spoiled last year and didn't have a whole lot of outside work to do for school. Anyway, in addition to the four preps that I need to have ready for each lesson, it was brought to my attention today that I need to be grading notebooks regularly, giving homework regularly and basically eat, sleep and breathe school... Ugg!

On a happier note, the French Assistant arrived yesterday. She seems very nice. Her friend from Brittany is working at a school the next town over - she seems nice, too. They are both pretty young, but the other girl says that she is staying with a Geography teacher who is closer to my age, and she mentioned going out and hanging out together. Of course, with the pile of work from school that I will be buried under, I won't have much time for a social life. Forget weekends, or at least both days of the weekend... boy does this suck!
