Slogged Over Leisures

I knew some of my blogger friends know that I am a teacher. Being a teacher is not an easy job. Just observe a woman working in the office and a woman working as an educator. How can you spot the difference? Precisely by looking her physically. The way she dress up, act, talk and most commonly, she always bring two to three bags. Why? For it contains some papers to be checked, lesson plans, visual aids, other things needed in the class. She’s hoping that she could still work at home. I used to do this when I am still single. I have lots of time checking papers, making my visual aids, doing some research, pursuing my masters degree. But now, it was totally different for I have my own family. Having a family, changes some of my routine. I seldom bring any paper works at home for I wanted to spend the time with my baby. Having a baby is really a great challenge to all teachers. Why do I say this, for sometimes I felt guilty working hard as a teacher teaching students, talking to them almost 8 hours but I only have almost 1 to 2 hours at most being with my own child. Just recently my weekend is also loaded with activities in school, such as dance club, playground demonstration, production meeting for sayawit, production meeting for Sinulog, and group dance practice. However, no matter how busy I am. I always see to it that I could spend time with my love ones especially on Sunday. I am guilty of not acting a 100% wife and mother. In this manner, I wanted to spend time with them this coming semestral break. I wanted to be with Crash and Chloe with out thinking of any school activities and paper works. How I wish that Crash will surprise me to a Branson vacation or any places as long as we are together.

Sometimes, I even think about quitting my job so I could be a full time mom and wife but I can’t also stand staying at home for whole day without mingling and be with other people. As of now, I’m praying that God will give me time for everything, that I may be able to organize my activities without compromising my child, Chloe.
