One of the perks to teaching students is that you enjoy all the holiday breaks the children do while still being paid for it. Its wonderful when you get to spend time with your wife and kids during all the important holidays. During Christmas time, we roughly get about two weeks off from work. Its the longest break we get besides our summer vacation. My vacation started on December 19th, and it ends today on January 2nd. I go back to work bright and early tomorrow morning.

What I hate about returning to work is getting back into the routine of things. I have to get up no later than 5:30 am to walk my dog. I get back in at around 6:15, take a shower, eat a bit, and leave the house at around 7:00am. Lately, I haven’t even been out of bed until a little past 9am. haha. Its going to be a huge challenge for me to wake up to that alarm in the morning. Im really considering sleeping early so my body will be alert tomorrow. My only problem is finding a way to get to sleep. I dont know if it will be possible.

I have also have slacked off this holiday season. So many parties and recreational things to do over my break that I left the paperwork stacked pile high. I guess I’ll be burning the midnight oil making up for it. Life goes on. Happy New Year everyone.
