the change is good

So, since Monday I've been doing work experience at my primary school.

They're shorter days but I'm more tired than ever.

However, its an amazing experience.

See, I'm working with year 1's, and they are all 5 year olds.

Cute, (snotty) tiny 5 year olds.

5 year olds that really make me feel important, and care whether or not I like their work, and do not stop touching me, whether its a hug or trying to hold my hand.

Obviously, due to the perverted policy, I am not allowed to let them touch me nor touch them back but it's the thought that counts.

It's weird being back at primary school. I had so many good and bad times there and it's nice to see all the teachers again.

So what my job consists of whilst i'm there is:

Basically, I'm like support staff. You know, the type that sit around the edge of the class and give help where it's needed. :D

They all really need my help too.

It's lovely.

But we had a boy wee himself yesterday. Plus they're all full of snot. And there's one kid that has behavioural problems and he lashes out occasionally. He's cute though.

I think I've caught something from them though. I got a bit of a dodgy throat right now. Maybe it's a cold.

Oddly, I'm looking forward to tomorrow. It's sports day, and normally I hate it, but I'm a teacher figure now, a person of importance. They even call me 'Miss. Turner'.

I'm so glad I'm not still at Fishers. I would have actually gone crazy. I heard a lot of the rumours today and it is utterly terrible.

Connel's a drug addict who owes 3 times his wage, Gemma's a crap mother who gets pissed every weekend, Laura who's a control freak, Sophie who's become an attention whore and Adam who's completely hating on french despite him being incredible at it in year 11.

If I were still there, I'd be dead by now.

After the whole Ammmmmelia fiasco, I considered the idea of me maybe not actually being a part time lesbian. I wondered if I was completely broken. However, in more recent times....I have discovered that the lesbian part of me is very much alive and happy right now.

I like this change.

I'm planning on telling my mum sometime next week. I think.

12 days.
