Things I'd like to accomplish this year

- To obtain my degree: I have six subjects left in order to complete my career and I’m working hard for it. I want to start working hard for it. I want to start working as soon as possible!
- To be a teacher: I have to say that the teaching practices were a great experience for me because they helped me to start having an idea of what follows after graduating. I had the pleasure to work with different groups from EGB 3 and Polimodal and they gave me the confidence I needed to be in front of them. I could manage successfully with situations that were present in class and that also made me realize that no matter how good enough you plan your classes, sometimes instead of trying to focus on them you have to try to focus on the student. That doesn’t make you a bad teacher.
- To start working: I really hope to start working this year. I feel that I need to have my own incomes. I always considered myself an independent person but the fact of not having a job doesn’t let me be as independent as I would like to be.
- To be more tolerant: I am a very patient person (especially with children and adolescents) but I can’t be very patient with adults. That’s why I promised myself to be more tolerant with them. I know some adults’ actions drive me crazy but this year, I’ll work on that because I am supposed to be an adult too. I also make mistakes and I’d like people to be patient with me.
- To modernize my wardrobe: yeah…I know it may sound stupid but I’m the kind of girl who has a terrible mess in her wardrobe. I also keep clothes for years, in good conditions of course, but old clothes anyway. I mean, I don’t want to be fashionable but I’d like to change my clothes. To use more colourful clothes. I tend to use dark colours and I will never forget once when a little girl, who was one of my students asked me if I was sad because of the colour of the clothes I was wearing at that moment. I didn’t know what to answer to her. Besides, last year I spend a lot of money in photocopies for different subjects or for my students while I was doing my teaching practices and I didn’t buy new clothes for me! And no no no, I have to start thinking about myself.
- To be more organized: I’m 25 years old and I have to admit it, I’m not as organized as I would like to be. Shame on you, Carolina!, but it’s true! I don’t know why but I dislike the idea of planning carefully what or how I’m going to do something. It’s so stressful for me!
- To save money: I hate this time of the year when everybody are on holiday and I just stay at home doing nothing but watching TV or reading something
I can’t help it. I can save enough money to afford my own holidays. Hopefully this year I’ll start working and I will be able to save enough money so next year I can have the holidays that I’ve been waiting for a long time.
