Well, it's been a while since I last wrote anything here. Have been on thoughts.com most days reading and commenting a little, so I feel like I 'know' a lot of you guys a bit now!
I always wanted to use this blog to write out my feelings that I don't necessarily want to share with those in my life. The trivial things, the mundane things, and also the big things that I don't like to talk about. I also set it up when I had first arrived here in Thailand, and I was feeling excited but also pretty lonely so far away from home without any friends, or really knowing anyone at all. So, I blogged a lot as something to do with my evenings I guess!
Now, I am much more settled here, and much busier! The teaching is goind pretty well, I have my hiccups every now and again, days when I feel out of my depth and doubt that I'll ever really be a 'great' teacher. A lot of people who end up English teaching here purely do it as a way to earn enough money to live here, to get a longterm visa and to be able to stay, the teaching aspect isn't that important to them. Well, I'm not like that, I am here mainly to learn to be a good ESL teacher. If this year goes well I will consider continuing my education in this area, and finding a way to make it my longterm career. Now, of course, living in a tropical paradise is a nice bonus, but the job comes first for me!
Well, this is a pretty random one, but just wanted to reintroduce myself to blogging, now I've done that, I aim to use my blog properly again, as an aid for me to keep things organised and good in my head!
Happy weekend everyone!!!
