What they don't tell you about being a Teacher:

 

 

• When you graduate after 4-5 years of college, you'll think you're ready to take on a classroom full of small humans, but you are not ready.
• Your wardobe will probably consist of 10+ shirts from the school you work at, because who doesn't need another t-shirt?
• You will meet some of the best friends of your life working in a school; including some of the students.
• Sometimes you will just feel the need to snap a selfie in the work bathroom.
• Graduating with your Master's while teaching is an amazingly accomplished feeling.
• Saying goodbye to your maiden name after getting married is hard for both you and the students.
• You will cry over students. Many times.
• More than once, a lesson will bomb and you won't realize it's bombing until you are right in the middle of it with nowhere to go.
• Even if you think the students hate you, they still want you to be the teacher in the classroom.
• You can't fix parents who don't give a hoot.
• You will fall totally, completely in love with what you do if you let yourself.
