Journal Entry; Monday, December 8th
I guess I haven't gotten out of the habit of writing a journal since being a student here. It's super cool having a room to myself, though. Teachers have it pretty sweet here. I got lucky, I guess. I came back here to learn more and to teach my perspective. So far, that hasn't gone so well. It's early days, though. Maybe I can get through to some people.
I figure at this stage, I should probably keep tabs on the people to avoid. I'm only a teacher's assistant, but I can still help. However, some people are beyond help. I'd say Marty is number one on that list. If you can't even accept opinions, then you're in trouble.
Other than him, I've had a pretty good start to this year. Flareon and Growlithe have been racing each other in the yard. They've all chosen where they're sleeping in the room, too. Luckily, only Flareon and Tepig want to share the bed with me. Growlithe wants the chair. I can handle that. I guess I'm going to have to meet some more students. I can't teach them much about training, but I can teach them about care. That's all I grew up learning after all.
I've only met one other TA, but I didn't catch his name. He seemed quiet, but I kind of liked him. I didn't really get enough out of him to know for sure. I've met a couple of other students, too. They were alright. They weren't unbearable, at least. I'll have to see how this week turns out.
