So suddenly i have been transported from Christmas Eve to New Years Eve and I'm back at work in four days. ahhhh (five weeks and 1 day then one week off!!!)

So first day back to day and the picture on the kids faces when they ask whats the point in coming back on a Thursday and getting a "Don't ask me this is not my bloody education system, i don't understand GCSE and Year 10 and 11 so fuck off and just behave for the day"

So much for that - i'm in with the new teacher all morning with kids complaining that she is making them do too much cutting and bloody sticking!

Afternoon is my real forte - counting down the hour and a half left before the little buggers go home and my brilliant idea to keep them occupied - dragons den - split into groups think of a product, team name and logo. Couldn't cause any trouble could it?

Bugger - one chair thrown twice one door kicked in 5 kids running in 5 different directions and one cause - WOMEN!

(5 weeks and 1 day to go then one week off!!!)

Everyone tells me this happens to everyone, crisis of confidence, career unfulfillment or general feeling of being lost. I'm not worried about this, i just hate to see potential wasted, maybe its arrogance, or an over-inflated sense of self worth, but since when has that been a bad thing. I have the potential to excell at something, i just don't know what or how to get there.

So my blog will be about my day to day life, hopefully you can point me in some sort of direction. I've tried a number of jobs, one which was my passion for a short time untill my rose tinted glasses wore off and the life was sucked out of that industry for me.

You'll find me trying to find myself, and maybe you've already found me.

Right, as i have now read through and heard myself as the whiny pricks i abhore its time to get off my ass and back date some blogs starting with my current job in education.
