Back To Work And Row The Boat

21 August 2009 By: Marlene17 Comments

This is it!  It’s back to work since Monday but I’m not yet completely into it.  Although it’s an easy start with career enhancement trainings and coffee breaks, my mind still couldn’t let go of summer holidays and sitting pretty-days.  It takes time to get engaged to the job again after a long break.  It has been a dilemma to me.  The worst part when school starts again is the mind-boggling schedule making.  But it’s part of  the job I can’t get away with.  I know it  doesn’t last long, after a week or so, everything will run smooth like no summer break had taken place.  But the pressure of starting over again is quite a stress.

Anyhow,  the kickoff week ended with a teachers’ trip to Sparreviken summer camp site.  Darn, the bosses planned an outdoor activity for us without foreseeing the weather, lol!  In one event, we had to row the boat in the rain just to find what we were looking for.  Fortunately, four people in my group dared to take the challenge though none of them (or us) could row a boat.  A paperboat maybe.

Row the boat in that direction!

And what we were looking for?

We found them!

We found them!

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

      You’re lucky, you’re free from opening stress. I still have to suffer more years, I think.

      Yes, sure, it is. It’s like a torture to me. After this weekend, maybe, I will be in good shape to start working again.

    You are right its very difficult to reset again yourself into job schedule. But after sometime it all would be smooth.

      Oo, friend, at hopefully next week ay back to normal na life ko, hehee. Itong schedule-making kasi ang matrabaho kapag simula ng klase.

      Yay, parang di ko yata naranasan mag-summer camp nung nandiyan pa ako. 🙁

    You are right, it’s hard to get back again but that is only a few days. It just take time to adjust your new schedule.
