I'm normally a student but this year I'm working as an English assistant here in*Austria.* Since October....well, I had to apply through this company which organizes*assistants in lots of different countries...well, Europe at least.
I had to specify*which country I wanted to work in...why I would be good at it.* I took it*because...well...I applied for it.* Because earning money is a good way to pay for a*year abroad which is compulsory for my C course.* I was very lucky because I have a*pen friend who lives here who said come and meet my old school.
It's allright...I don't want to be a teacher and lots of the teachers say to
me...like...do whatever you want with them...but it gets a bit like what am I going to do*with them now.* I have to do something with my pupils and there are only so many fun*things you can do with them....I'm here to help them so I can't just like say, let's talk*about boys....and I don't like the early mornings.
It's good because I'm not a teacher....but people listen to me.* I can help people*with their school course and hopefully make their English lessons more exciting instead of*just reading from a textbook and just doing this and that grammar.
I don't think of quiting my job....because I can't really.* The people will think
really shit of me and its not that bad...I just sometimes think, oh shit, it's like 6
oclock and I have to get up or I have to do something with them.
In 5 years...I don't know....there is a possibility of studying more.* I just want
to do something where I can use my language....and also something using my own brain...not*translating like a machine.* Like what's this word in German?* I'd rather have*some kind of job thats a proper job, where I can use my language.
In 30 years, god how old will I be then....50.* I don't know...I really don't
know.* I'm not a particularly homely or housewifey person.* I don't know if I'm*going to get married...or have kids...my mom doesn't think I'm going to have children.***She's relying on my brother...so...I don't know.* Hopefully, I'll be doing*something I enjoy.
