Over the Summer

Over the summer I avoided posting on my blog because I was very upset about the labour dispute and I wanted to avoid turning this blog into an anti-Liberal rant. I attended a few Education Rallies, but mostly just tried to enjoy my very first summer off! Woohoo! Time to reap the rewards of being a teacher! When I signed the contract last year they gave me the option of being paid over 10 months or having it stretched out over 12 so that I would still get paid in the summer. I thought, "Yaaaa I want to be paid in the summer so that I can finally enjoy this 'teacher benefit'...I don't trust myself to save that money". It was pretty awesome, but if I'm totally honest, I got bored over the summer. You think it is going to be great, but everyone else you know is working so you don't really have much to do. You go from working long hours every day to suddenly working none. It was kind of weird for me because I wasn't able to pick up any new hobbies in Zeballos. I didn't know what to do with myself! Next year I will work in the summer...

...well actually....I got engaged over the summer!! So next year I will be getting married. I probably won't be as bored...probably...
