Back to the real world for me

:cry::cry::cry:
Well i have spent the 6 week holidays this year thinking so much about maybe doing a nail course and doing mobile work that the school holidays have come to an end so quick and the reality of going back my teaching job tomorrow has hit me, i really dont want to go back! i have been crying off and on like a baby! 2 sets of staff and kids have merged so its all going to be different and i know im not going to like it, they other set of staff are alwyas off sick and lazy so its going to be hard work.
My boyfriend tells me to get a grip and its just a job, a little hypocritical considereing he has been "off sick" with post viral fatigue for 5 weeks because he hates his job! he was very unsupportive of the idea of a nail course at first but has come round to it, i am the main earner by a long way and he is being made redundant this month so he thinks i should be happy with what i have but as i said is warming to the idea.
Guess i will just have to think that this job will pay for all my training and materials and who knows the mobile work might mean i could do part time work! i am considering applying to other schools if this term is awful.
I think i am in for a sleepless night tonight guys!
i am sorry for the whinge anyway, at least i have had a moan to someone other than my boyfriend, just please dont tell me to stop being stupid and get a grip too!!
im awaiting my traininng info from sweet squared so hopefully i can dream of that instread of nightmares about school!
thanks for reading x

You are in the perfect job for reaching lots of nail clients when you qualify,
you will have all the teachers and all the parents to be able to give your flyer's to, advertising your new skills,
use your current job to your advantage and you might like it little bit more for the time that you need it hth :hug:

In my opinion if you like it, go for it!
I, myself, finished first an economics course in college but never even looked for a job as i always wanted to be a make up artist.
Now, years later, i realised it was the right decision as i looooove my job!
But be sure that problems will come up no matter what job you like so you really have to be sure about it!
Good luck with everything!

thanks guys! feeling a bit more positive now, someone on the nail forum had the brilliant idea of asking a tutor to come in and do some work with the kids in school so i can learn a bit too. Got my creative training info but i dont think ill be able to manage fitting the days in as school wont let us have days off unless its an emergency what with all the holidays we do get! so may have to do an evening course at college or a lady from manchester has emailed to say she offers 1to1 tuition for 2 days and her course is recognised and i would be able to gain insurance from it so that is also an option. i can always do some training with creative after in school holidays or something, just wont ever be able to fit the 5 days in unless i wait till next summer maybe, dont want to wait that long though!!
thanks again for all the replies x
