Regardless, the feeling's mutual, and it's been a long time coming. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. The only thing that sucks is that I was about to buy a car, and my job and home environment were both stable, but now I'm down to just...</description></item><item rdf:about="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EyezOfAnEducator/630414"><title>Diversity has SO MANY meanings...</title><link>http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EyezOfAnEducator/630414</link><description>...And whether you like it or not, it effects EVERYONE. For my master's classes, I had to attend a seminar today on diversity. It was eye-opening for sure. I was frustrated at first because I know that there are as many kinds of diversity as there are people in the world, but the seminar...</description></item><item rdf:about="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EyezOfAnEducator/629679"><title>Just a snap-of-the-fingers update for my readers.</title><link>http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EyezOfAnEducator/629679</link><description>One month into my first semester in the master's program and all is going smoothly. Still waiting on the financial aid to come in, as for some reason it just has to be difficult; aside from that, all is well. I'm keeping up with the workload without any problems, and I'm surprisingly enjoying the...</description></item><item rdf:about="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EyezOfAnEducator/625677"><title>I go YEARS without being sick enough to take time off work...</title><link>http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EyezOfAnEducator/625677</link><description>...And suddenly I find myself home with a sore throat, cough, and a bit of a runny/stuffy nose. Seriously? Are you kidding me? For someone who's had nearly perfect health for so long, why now? Thankfully it comes at a good time, since I sorted out all the details for my classes today, which I...</description></item><item rdf:about="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EyezOfAnEducator/625283"><title>Job-hunting.</title><link>http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EyezOfAnEducator/625283</link><description>It's tedious hard work, but I know it will be worth it. There have been numerous openings for teachers, group leaders, and instructional assistants, and I've been sending out resumes and cover letters like wildfire, trying to grab something, anything, but not nothing.

My boss has serious issues, and the past week, she's gotten worse. In the past week, we've had six spats, just three in the past three days. They are always - ALWAYS - started by her.
