Getting Ready

Well its only a few weeks to go!

My soccer team got beaten in the final of their competition so obviously it is time to go.  I have enjoyed teaching at my present school.  After not having a full time teaching job for 20 years or so it has been a challenge to have a full time job with teaching all day.  I have found it easy compared to the stresses of management and nice to establish relationships with wonderful adolescents.

It is going to be hard to say good-bye.

But poor management around me is frustrating and it is time to get out of this place and look for new horizons.  I love teaching in this school but I find working there a challenge.  More space is needed.

I told some students I was leaving today, it was hard!  So many conversations in the next 7 days.

Bangladesh seems near and far.

Near in that I think about the teaching and have many email conversations with people (I don't know) there; but far in that I don't have a visa, a ticket or any sense of that is going to happen.  Trying to sell stuff and losing money because of that.

Rental of the house to sort out, tax to sort out, visitors coming and still teaching full time!  Whwee!
