In My Element

I'm sitting here wondering how the hell to start this post...There's so much to say, yet so little...It's just one of those things I guess...where sometimes, one just cannot use words to describe...things!!! :-)

I've been teaching English for six months now. And I am absolutely in my element right now. Something that you just feel in your bones :-) I have so much passion for what I do at the moment that it doesn't even feel like a job!!! Heck, earning some dollars for something I love so much?!! It's totally awesome!!! :-)

All the students I've had the pleasure of teaching and even those I have just passed by at school, have been amazing...although sometimes it just doesn't appear to be that way :-) I think about 96% of the time that I have taught, I have enjoyed being there...and the other 4%...I guess I just wasn't present enough to what I could be learning from the situation.

Not only are the students amazing, but my colleagues are even more amazing! :-) They are the other reason why I love my job so much!!! :-) I guess I've never worked in a place where I've been able to have so much fun!!! :-) My work environment in Switzerland was fun once in a blue moon...okay...maybe a tad more than that...but I knew I wasn't there for fun...I always knew that it would be a lot of hard work...not to mention the white hairs which magically grew on both sides of my head (next to my temples) which came as part of my job ;-p

Find your element and just ride with it...cos I know I am! :-)
