Friday morning is like:
no sleep
When I’ve been working too much and have barely had any sleep all week
Friday morning is like:
When tomorrow is the first day of school
When a course is starting to wrap up
When it’s the last day of summer school
While I’m driving to work:
While the students are writing their exams:
When all the students leave:
When I’m packing up to leave the school:
When I realize all of the marking I have to do:
While I’m marking:
When I finish marking:
When I enter all report cards and submit exams:
When it’s all over:
When I realize I have to wait a whole year to do it all over again:
When I’ve been marking all night
When I realize how much marking needs to be finished before final grades are due
Reading ISU Essays after I marked the shit out of the last essay
When I realize summer school ends in a week

Then when I realize how much marking I have to do:
When I am stuck marking poorly written essays all weekend
