Decisions...

This past week was our deadline to make a decision about staying another year or moving on to new things.  For those of you who know me, I hate making decisions.  Sometimes I just wish that they were made for me and I just had to find a way to deal with whatever choice had been made.  So this was a very difficult decision and I spent a lot of time thinking about it.  My students here are so great and I enjoy the subject matter.  I must say though I also miss a lot of things and people from home.  The comforts here are just nonexistent.  What ended up winning for me was my family and friends back home.  It also didn’t help that the past week or two had been very challenging and that I had felt like I lost some of the passion for the school.  The way the administration had handled a few things and the demands they put on their teachers swayed me toward looking for something new.  In all of my previous jobs I have believed in their mission and enjoyed the people I was working with and under because everyone cared about the company and it success and it was very evident.  For some reason I felt a disconnect with the administraton in Tegucigalpa and our school.  While I am a bit sad about the decision I am excited to see what new adventures life will take me on.  I will surely miss the great people I have met here and become family with along with all my students and the community that has surrounded me.
