January Currently - Oh' Boy 4th Grade Linky Party

Well, on Wednesday night my family and I welcomed in 2015 at the local Bribie Island fireworks. 2014 was a huge year for us. We got married and I 'offically' became step-mum to my 2 teenage boys (slightly difficult for me to wrap my head around this occasionally given that I am only 24 myself! Joys of marrying an older man ;), and saw my sister get engaged to her man. I struggled through a very tough year with a very tough class of Grade 1s only to be told in November that I will be kicking off 2015 by teaching Prep. And my husband and I kissed goodbye to 2014 by going to see 'The Lion King' on stage in Brisbane - a musical I have dreamed of seeing for 10 years! It has been a big one!

So I have decided to kick off 2015 by linking up with Farley over at 'Oh Boy 4th Grade' to join in her January 'Currently' Linky Party.

*Listening - Yes I am in love with Taylor Swift's music at the moment. I might be driving my family nuts listening to it all the time, but hey, it makes me smile :)

*Loving - I love my job, but seriously, who wouldn't be enjoying having 5 weeks to relax, unwind and spend time doing the things you just don't have time to do during school term. I have finally caught up on reading 'Sapphire Skies', the latest book from my favourite author, Belinda Alexandra. I have had a chance to take out the pencils and sketch a bit, and even catch up on some fun resources I have been wanting to create for ages.

*Thinking - I swear I spend every waking minute about my new classroom. I am constantly changing my mind on how to decorate it, arrange it, organise it, the list goes on... I KNOW this one is driving my hubby insane :)

*Wanting - I have sooooooo many resources to print and laminate before the beginning of school, and all I can think is how much it is going to cost in ink and pouches...and how broke I am at the moment *sigh*

*Needing - I stepped on the scales yesterday... Time to get back to the gym!

*Yes - Soooooooooooooooooooooooo need to get myself organised this year. Last year was just exhausting and alot fell by the wayside. Time to get on top of things - starting with my new teacher binder I am creating.  

*Maybe - Need to work out a balance where I can take some personal time every now and then to indulge in my favourite things.

*A Wish - I am not the most confident of people. I definitely need to start believing in myself more. It is definitely scary moving to a new year level, but I really want to make my mark and create a niche for myself with my new year-level team.
