i think it gets very hard-going when a large part of the time, i'm continuing on with my job because of not wanting to leave the students in a lurch, and because I really have a very good cluster supervisor whom i want to continue to learn from.
other than that, my office environment affects me quite a bit cos of the temperature and the inability to concentrate, not to mention that it kinda discourages me from meeting my students because i'd have to change venue for privacy.
i'm not disgruntled. i think i really do need a job when i can be more hands-on and less paperworky. haha.
