Teaching practice

Now, teaching practice is a difficult topic for me. When I started KJO I didn't have any plans to be a teacher. I was open to that possibility, though not sure. There was a moment when I thought that being a teacher was not so bad. I even thought that I might do it in the future. But when I started teaching during my teaching practice I changed my mind. I came to realise that I am not equipped with the qualities of a good teacher. I am too introvert and shy. I don't have this inner energy that some have. I find the situation of teaching quite unnatural. This is the most important reason why I don't want to be a teacher. Of course, the question of money plays an important role as well. I want to earn enough so that I could buy myself a washing machine, car, TV, or other things people usually have. I don't want to think about surviving a month with the amount of money I have. I want to be able to save some money so as to go for a trip, buy something nice, or help my future children the way my parents help me now. So, I guess that teaching won't be my future job, unless I'll have no idea for life and I'll be too afraid to do something unusal, something I really want. I hope it will not happen...

Childhood

One thing I remember very clearly from my Christmas when I was a child - my grandfather who had this terrible and frightening mask of Santa Clause. All of us (I mean children then) were afraid of this mask. I don't know why. It was so pale so that it looked like a dead man's face:D And to make the matter worse it had a small whole in the cheek. But still, the Christmas was always wonderful. We always spent it with the whole family at my grandparent's house, aet delicious food, and got fantastic toys. I remember the atmosphere, magic and full of happiness. It was really nice. Now my Christmas is great as well, though different. I hope that my future children will have this opportunity to have such a wonderful Christmas.
I am going to put a photo from my childhood, but right now I'm not at home and won't be for a couple of weeks, and I don't have any photo-albums in Poznań. I'll put a photo when I'm at home:)
