I was hired a couple of months ago to be a tour leader for Montreal, Quebec, and Ottawa so I basically have trips every week for 3-4 taking a bunch of grade eights on their end of the year trip. It is a great job and I saw it as my opportunity to finally travel, to finally get out of Meadowvale, and to try something new. That is exactly what it is except what I didn’t see would happen was me missing my family and friends so much even though I am not gone for too long or being behind in what is going on at home because it seems as if so much goes on while I’m on trips! It feels like I have just lost track of everything going on at home with friends, family, and just everything that I used to be on top of

Now I have a week off and trying to get updated and relax feels like it just can’t happen. I find myself forgetting about previous plans I have made, just unable to manage my time wisely. I feel like there isn’t enough time off for me to get back on track with everyone that I need to and actually know what is going on in their lives.
