I'm very happy/satisfied/overjoyed/ecstatic/content/overwhelmed/perplexed...breath...that finals are next week. I just have a research paper and four summaries to write that I am so procrastinating on finishing. I've been working on and off for the past week on my papers. Classes are over and I say good ridings to a bad semester. I made bad choices in some of the classes that I enrolled in, but I'm never going to have to do that again. I don't have to stress about taking classes that fit around work anymore. I can take classes anytime now. That's one more plus to my job that I still love. Summer hours will start in two weeks and I'll have Friday afternoons off. I'll be tutoring ESL classes on Tuesday and Thursday. I didn't even know that it was a paying gig until I went in to complete my application and she said she needed my dl and ss card for tax purposes. That's a bonus. But a part of me is afraid to take on such a task. I'm not sure I will be a good teacher, but now is the best time to figure that out. Now, before I've invested anymore hours into the graduate program. Before when I thought it was just volunteering my time I was all siked. But a job is a different story. That means I can't just take this as a learning process, but will really have to teach and prepare lessons. These students are paying good money for me to be the all knowing when it comes to the English language and I'm not sure I'm ready for that now. Just look at my Blog its so full of typos and sentence fragments...not quite what an ESL student would want to learn. I'm not even sure if I'll be dealing with college students, adults, or kids. For the first time in my life I am truly scared of the future and what direction this all might take me in.

Good for you. I'm really jealous. I miss my legal assistant classes sometimes.
