I’ve been officially
accepted into graduate school—working towards my MA in Language &
Literacy—and if you have any idea of what that means, you know I ain’t gonna
have the time…
Honestly, 2014 was
probably one of the toughest years of my life, burning me out to the core of my
soul, messing with my health, emptying my bank account and essentially ruining
me financially.
But WOW, I learned a
lot about myself and the “System.”
Like I will never
teach in a public school. Not because the kids are monsters (and many of them
are), but because the pedagogical bureaucrats and creeps run the show—and their
one desire is a classroom full of obedient zombies. Teaching students how to be
quiet and sit up straight was more important that engaging them intellectually.
Sad, really, and I want no part of it.
Wow, this month, I
really caught up (sort of) with my movie viewing and “for fun” reading (not
that any reading these days doesn’t have an ulterior motive).
