Last Day (12/7)

No tests, a little cleaning, a party and "Chao!" I was surprised about all the presents, but I won't be back and they know it. I was a little sentimental at times, but I don't feel great loss. I am already transitioning. My one foot is already facing the US. I will miss them, it's true. But I feel ready for the break. Bless their hearts, they probably do too.

You may ask what I will be doing until the last teacher day, December 21st. I am not exactly sure, but I have grades to tally, report cards to complete, the BOOK to fill out (damn thing), and the classroom to clean up. It sure seems that there will be plenty of time to do that. In fact, I have already been playing dominoes and a dice game (a poker face, guess my bluff game called Perudo) during school hours as a "smoke break". Yeah, these early dismissal days have been rough. But, I think I see the light at the end of the tunnel.
