So I recently discovered that I'm a complainer. I know, how shocking!

Well I wanted to speak on some of my recent complaints. 
Remember how I said I would discuss those 26 kids...? Well now is the time. 
I've been frustrated from day 1 because I have 26 KINDERGARTENERS. It's not acceptable, to me, at any age below college to have that many students in a class. Kindergarteners can't do much for themselves, which means that prep time takes forever. I didn't find out that I was having more than 18 kids until 3 days before school started. How the hell was I supposed to properly prepare for that many kids in that much time? I bought 18 of everything I had. So I started off my year with a bitter taste in my mouth and it's still not completely gone. 
With that being said, I still love what I do. It's just frustrating to know how hard I work to barely make it through the day and there are people out there who don't do half of what I do in the first 2 hours, making way more than me. Pisses me off. Sometimes my frustration gets misplaced, seems like I hate my job. That's not the case. I hate the circumstances under which I'm expected to do my job. 

Just wanted to clear that up :)

So I haven't blogged in MONTHS!!! I've thought about it, and then my computer screen got cracked and I got 26 kids in my class now and this just fell to the wayside. 

To update you all, I'll do some quick bullets and promise to keep it up. 

• I'm teaching kindergarten again with 10 more kids than I had last year. (we'll talk about that later)
• With the help of my besties, my apartment has been redecorated a  little. I love it
• Just when I thought I was getting a handle on my love life, it took some unpredictable turns.
• I've completed hella goals on my 101 things to do in a 1001 days which I will post soon
• Reading this Malcolm X Autobiography on top of what is going on with my people, sometimes it provokes thoughts about things that make me a little uncomfortable. 
• I've continued to learn that frustration motivates me to change things
• I need the release of my blog to live happily lol
• For a while, I stopped writing because I felt like what I was writing wasn't profound or important enough. Then I decided, fuck that. I'm not a profound person. I'm an everyday person with everyday thoughts and feelings and nobody is obligated to read my blog. it's a choice yall make lol I write it for me and that's ok!
