a little like christmas eve

i find that tonight is a little like christmas eve. i'm nervous, yet i'm giddy. i'm tired, yet i want to stay up all night. i'm hopeful, yet i have no idea what tomorrow holds.

tomorrow i get to be a teacher again. i get to wake up, put on my teacher clothes, throw my teacher bag over my shoulder and head to school. i get to walk into a class of 32 grade 8's and be ms.salt again (oh how i love being ms.salt!) . i get to teach p.e. to 120 kids, as well as 2 blocks of science and a block of math... oh and a block of french/capp.

i've planned and planned and planned waiting for tomorrow to come. now tomorrow is almost here and i am somewhat beside myself. i'm so excited to see what the next thirteen weeks of teaching will bring. i love my students, and i love being a teacher, but i don't doubt that the next thirteen weeks will be an interesting test of my skills (and my patience). i can't wait to see what i look like at the end of it all. for now, though, i just have to concentrate on tomorrow. oh, tomorrow! i'm just not quite ready to close my eyes and go to sleep yet....

Hey Jenn,
Hope your first day went well. First day back after spring break was a bit nutty for me... I think everyones brains were still on vacation.
