Beautiful people cancel out ignorant ones!

Today 3 seperate occaisions have shown me how rude and ignorant people can be, you offer to do something in addition to your usual mad life and you are criticised for the amount of time it takes for you to do it, someone else thinks they have the right to question something you have created (and something that you are very proud of) and another person (who starts off the discussion as don't take this the wrong way - which generally means they are about to insult you!) questions something that you are working hard to achieve.

So to say today meant that I had had enough and was ready for ripping someone apart would be an understatement!

And then I opened a parcel from Sue, which contained a Student Survival Kit, there were lots of bits and pieces to get me through my studies. All of which made me cry! Especially the last bit cos I felt like a piece of s**t and Sue made me realise that I wasn't one!

So I packed my satchel (as DH calls it!) with my Em special notebook and pencil case and Sue's Survival Kit and skipped off to school.

Then I realised how much hard work this is going to take and at one point I had decided I was out of my league. The majority of the class are already teaching and lecturing so they were all giving examples etc. It then transpired that I wasn't employed as a lecturer and I worked within business and I wanted to be a teacher. So at this point one of my classmates pointed out that he thought this was a course for teacher qualifications not for just trainers. So the confidence dived big time...................then the tutor pointed out yes it was a course for teacher training and that I had got on the course on my own merit and she just wanted to point out that a) I was the highest educated person in the room, b) I had chosen to take this course whereas they were being forced to and c) I had more real life experience because I work in a senior management position and I am responsible for teaching thousands of people my specialist subject! So I am now the most hated person on the course and do you know what - I am going to prove to every one of those stuck up gits that I can do this course and teaching and training is the same thing!

And then I came out of the lesson and had 2 texts from Sue and Em both asking about the quality of the men on the course - I think Em questioned the 'fodder'! Funny they both focused on the snogability!

So I learnt alot today. One making a decision that I made last week to resign from something incredibly special to me was so the right thing to do (mainly due to the ignorance of a select few people), I am not going to put up with unecessary criticism from people who don't even know me and MOST IMPORTANTLY I have the best family and friends ever who I know will support me to the end and I will get this done!

I am about to join in with a special CJ and I am so looking forward to it because they are the best circle of friends EVER!

And my DH, parents and baby are so behind me - how can I not do it!
