Twonk! CAKE! Youuuuu jammy mollusc... Musings from a primary school teacher. Who also happens to be a functioning addict, manic depressive oddball with a whimsical grasp on reality. Will that do as an introduction?

What’s it taken…

May 8, 2020May 8, 2020 iseestarsxLeave a comment

New 'return to school' potential guidelines suggest that: due to social distancing and classroom sizes, classes will likely be no bigger than 8 children. Whilst part of me celebrating the fact that will mean the supply network will be roped into full time work for a good few months. The other part of me is… Continue reading What’s it taken… →

Why I’m not…

April 24, 2020April 24, 2020 iseestarsxLeave a comment

Everyone is going through something at the moment. EVERYONE. Even Richard Branson. Ok fair enough if you've got that many millions and your concerns are anything other than about the health of you and your loved ones, maybe you should have made a better choice somewhere. But frequent feelings I hear talked about: dispair, fear,… Continue reading Why I’m not… →

Another new system

March 31, 2020 iseestarsxLeave a comment

I know this essay has no methodology and no reference to anyone else's work, which shows you it's coming from my brain. I hope to one day look further into my ideas academically, but still keep my ideas here for when that day comes.... In the age of technology, why do we send children to… Continue reading Another new system →

Unintentional social media

March 29, 2020 iseestarsxLeave a comment

Ever thought you were so careful about checking what ended up on social media about you? Made sure you went through after party photos and politely asked people to remove the picture or untag you. Most people oblige. They understand. I don't want to be recognized by a well meaning parent or jobsworth at my… Continue reading Unintentional social media →

Unprepared for no choice

March 25, 2020March 25, 2020 iseestarsxLeave a comment

This is one of the gripes I have with the way I was parented. Not in a 'woe is me, I must punish' kinda way. But in a 'huh, I see where that went wrong' kinda way. Don't get me wrong, my parents are my parents and I will always love them for bringing me… Continue reading Unprepared for no choice →

Because it’s all getting a bit real now.

March 24, 2020March 24, 2020 iseestarsxLeave a comment

Has nobody realised yet that the reason so many people are staying out, is because they don't care? Many don't care if they die. Many are more actively than that, hoping if kill enough off, the economy will be kick-started. Happy to sacrifice themselves, too! If they get sick, they get sick. If they die,… Continue reading Because it’s all getting a bit real now. →

Communication

March 14, 2020March 14, 2020 iseestarsxLeave a comment

Technology is apparently the devil. I don't see it. Even with the best will in the world, the devil is on everybody's shoulder some of the time. That's a social construct of humankind. Not a piece of furniture. If technology is causing problems, it's because of the humans that are using it. I don't have… Continue reading Communication →

New Job

March 13, 2020March 13, 2020 iseestarsx

Here's the issue with therapy or mental health support of most kinds that I know of... They can't be there 24/7 unless you're locked up. And half the things you really want someone to be there for is to ground you when your brain malfunctions. Be it a sudden dip in mood, an inability to… Continue reading New Job →

You don’t know.

March 9, 2020 iseestarsxLeave a comment

I got a compliment I wasn't expecting last night. Not one I didn't think of myself. Definitely a compliment I had hoped to receive one day. But it was unexpected last night. My partner told me that he always had a negative view of women before he met me. Said he thought women were all… Continue reading You don’t know. →

Nothing is easy

March 1, 2020March 1, 2020 iseestarsxLeave a comment

What gets me about my job is that im forced to give children rights that they just won't have when they grow up. I'm forced to treat them with out reaction and with utmost respect whatever they do to me, which doesn't happen in real life. If school was meant to prepare children for adulthood… Continue reading Nothing is easy →
