Day 11, Year 2: 4/10/2019

Today was a bit better than yesterday.

Though my day did not start quite right, it was yet a better than yesterday. I got up exactly 22 minutes later than my original plan, dragged myself out of bed, made some coffee and went to the desk. My morning routine started off right then. I had planned to read and work on classroom observation schedule but somehow the samples I got from Jan went missing and thus I spent quite a bit of time panicking of losing them, searching for them and finally found them in my pile of paperworks. At the end, it was a relief but then it was time to get ready for work.

I took off to work and arrived there roughly 10 minutes late, better than yesterday. The work there was a continuation of the task I was previously assigned. After working there for five hours, I got off work and went directly to ReCSS.

It was another type of story today. I was able to stay and maintain my focus for a much longer period of time. I was able to come up with questions for student questionnaire as I referred to my notes and the class notes as well. And yet I can now see it as a rough draft of my questionnaires.

I rushed to work and arrived on time. However, I took some time to have dinner and signed it late. Admittedly, it was a long night and I was pleased that it was over a bit after 10.

Overall, it was a more productive and controllable kind of day for me. I felt and am feeling great!
