My summer vacation is soon about to end, this being the last week of the holidays. I love my holidays but at the same time I don't like staying away from work and school...
I had made a few resolutions for myself for the summer vacation but I haven't kept any of them. I didn't exercise everyday as I had promised, didn't lose a single kilo, didn't start writing exercise with H and didn't sleep a lot which I used to tell myself that I would everyday of my hols.
And I think of school everyday. I wonder how the others are getting along with their vacation. Cl had gone to Tanzania, Mks to US, and Stf to Caribbean Islands.
Miffed with my reduced salary since the January of this year, I had developed a practice of looking into vacancies in other schools in the city. I got calls for interview from two schools but I suddenly didn't want to leave this school at all...
Today again I had to go for an interview but I have just mailed them that I do not want to consider the vacancy anymore. I feel rather happy to be working in a large, spacious, beautiful school with a rather large student population as compared to other schools here which are tiny 2-3 room affair, 6-7 teacher staff and only about 15-20 students all in all. I have really grown fond of all the staff members here and realize that the fact that I and H both are together in this school is a great source of comfort and convenience to me which may not be possible in other schools.
Well, I am waiting for the school to reopen fast. I want to get back to work, business, children, staff, fun, intrigues and storms in teacups. They make life interesting and purposeful. And I have made a few resolutions again for the new session. I had better write them down so as not to forget them at my convenience and recall them with plenty of regret and guilt only on the eve of some other holiday.
1. I shall not eat anything in the school to help maintain my weight at least if not to lose some kilos. I had lately started eating a lot especially cakes owing to b'day parties of children, and also sampling new dishes.
2. I shall use the metro line which is farthest from my home than the one which is nearer so as to encourage more walking exercise for myself.
3. I shall start drinking lemon honey tea twice everyday. ( or at least once a day)
4. I shall try my best to follow a simple exercise regimen at least 3-4 times a week. This one is difficult as my schedule has really no free time and when it does have I am totally worn out by that time.
5. It is futile to say I will ever relinquish coffee because I tried that soooo many times and I always came back to it.
For the present, I have only these. Let's see how much I can stick to them...
Waiting impatiently for the school to reopen again....!!!
