A good song

I really want you of James Blunt

Many prophets preach on bended knee. Many clerics wasted wine.
Do the bloodied sheets on those cobbled streets mean I have wasted time?
Are there silver shores on paradise? Can I come in from the cold?
I killed a man in a far away land, my enemy I'm told.
I really want you to really want me, but I really don't know if you can do that.
I know you want to know what's right but I know it's so hard for you to do that.
And time's running out as often it does, and often dictates that you can't do that.
But fate can't break this feeling inside that's burning up through my veins.
I really want you.
I really want you.
I really want you - now.
No matter what I say or do, the message isn't getting through,
And you're listening to the sound of my breaking heart.
I really want you.
I really want you.
Is a poor man rich in solitude, or will Mother Earth complain?
Did the beggar pray for a sunny day, but Lady Luck for rain?
They say a million people bow and scrape to an effigy of gold.
I saw life begin and the ship we're in and history unfold.
I really want you to really want me but I really don't know if you can do that.
I know you want to know what's right but I know it's so hard for you to do that.
And time's running out as often it does and often dictates that you can't do that.
But fate can't break this feeling inside that's burning up through my veins.
I really want you.
I really want you.
I really want you - now.
No matter what I say or do, the message isn't getting through,
And you're listening to the sound of my breaking heart.
No matter what I say or do, the message isn't getting through,
And you're listening to the sound of my breaking heart.

Trabajo

Hoy escribo sobre lo que ya muchos sabeis, que tengo nuevo trabajo y es de profesor de ingles.
Escribo porque ahora tengo la oportunidad de ver las cosas desde otra perspectiva, desde detras del escritorio y no desde el pupitre.
Es totalmente distinto, no tiene nada que ver con ser alumno, porque tu diriges, guias, moldeas las actividades y las mentes de los alumnos. Es un trabajo que debe hacerse con mucho cuidado porque de realizarse incorrectamente, las consecuencias pueden ser graves para el aprendiz.
Cuando somos estudiantes creemos que el profesor solo tiene el trabajo de estar en clase, seguir el programa y responder a las preguntas de los alumnos, pero hay una cantidad de trabajo "invisible" que tiene que hacer para que las clases sean correctas y que las personas no pierdan el hilo y puedan aprender de la mejor manera.

Es un trabajo duro mentalmente pero muy gratificante al ver que tus alumnos mejoran y se les da mejor ese ejercicio que antes les costaba mucho. Creo que me gusta lo que hago y por eso intentare hacerlo de la mejor manera posible, dado que quedare en sus mentes como aquel profesor de ingles que me ayudo y me hizo gustar el idioma o si no lo hago bien, puede que me recuerden como todo lo contrario y no quiero.
