When a semester ends, life always seems to go a little topsy-turvy. This semester in particular has been challenging, and how suitable that the end should likewise be a challenge. If my schedule had gone according to plan, I would have finished teaching on Friday and today would solely be a review day for their final exam (which is Wednesday evening; Tuesday afternoon for some). I canceled class once this semester for a very good reason--one of my best friends came to visit on the only day of the week she could before heading back home in North Carolina. Because I canceled class the one time, the rest of my schedule shifted forward a day. So, today is my final day of teaching rather than Friday.
As ever, I'm tired. I have to tutor in about an hour for a three hour stretch, and I am exhausted...I'm afraid I'll fall asleep during the sessions, but I'll try not to.
Saturday was a horrible day--because everything took longer than I wanted it to, I missed out on going up to the lake with Robert and our friends. But, Robert surprised me by coming to visit me when he got back Saturday evening, which I both needed and appreciated.
This semester will be finished at 2:45 this afternoon. Then I can relax a little more until August 17th...the day before fall semester begins. I'm not as anxious about teaching this Fall because I'm simply going to recycle my old lessons from last Spring to make it easier on me. I have exams to study for in addition to teaching, so this one time studying must take priority over teaching. My students would understand if I felt so inclined to divulge that to them...which I'll likely not.
On to the final day of the semester!
