Couple of days to go...

So there only a couple of days left before I´ll make it into my first summer vacation break as a teacher...well deserved and most definately needed. I´ve had a major bill on my car, something on the engine had to be fixed and I´m quite desperate for chash as of now...with my salary, a close to 400 bucks bill is a punch hard to shake of. As of now, I have thus canceled my holiday trip to France and am gonna sit it out climbing locally, hanging out and getting my due rest. I have a fall break of ten days, which should be enough to wrap up my projects in France, so I guess it´s climbing all my local projects, makeing a couple of Frankenjura trips and so forth...I´m not ruling things out, it´s just that I´m quite psyched on my local stuff as of now and saving some money which I can spend when things get all nasty in here makes sense...why blow it when summer actually seems to have finally arrived? I´ve also ordered a substantial ammount of bolts, actually they have been delivered to me already, so I´m really looking forward to some bolting as well. School was a lot of fun...there´re always minor setbacks and disturbances, some frustration and some anxietey add to the mix as soon as you make it into a new job but on a whole, things were fun! This morning I said goodbye to my 7th graders and I´ll embark on a field trip with my Q 11 senior highs on Monday, sorta to properly finish the term. No photos...no climbing photos...hopefully there´ll be some, I ticked a couple of amazing routes the past weeks and definately need some pics! I also need a ton of sleep...and have a school party to attend in a couple of minutes. I somehow weaseled out of the teachers´ soccer team (smart move I guess) and am actually looking forward to watching the rest of the team get killed ;)

Wrapping up...

So I have to admit I´m tired...the tiredness I´m talking about is the one that makes you fall asleep on the train, drains your energy and generally puts you down...and there´s two ways of reacting: succumb or try to get as much done as possible while not overstraining yourself. I´ve chosen the latter...I have to fix my classes grades, my car´s engine has been ruined to some extent by a ferret (quite a bill coming my way...) and it´s just 3 three weeks before I finally will get some rest...if this is reading somewhat uninspired, I´m tired...I wish I could sleep in tomorrow...but I can´t...
