Wow! Good for you. I hope that you and your children are doing well now... As for smoking, well, I am trying to quit.. I have been teaching since June 2000 and for the past 4-5 years have been very stressful for me. I have always loved my job and my students but not the environment I am in. I really don't like much of the policies implemented because it robs us of our Academic Freedom. I find it difficult to leave my job because I find so much fulfillment. I felt like I was like a robot or a puppet being controlled by strings. So last October, before the first semester ended, I asked my dean to give me fewer units for second semester which started last November. Well, she gave me one for the undergrad and three subjects in the graduate school. Since graduate school subjects are normally scheduled once a week and in the evening, I am practically free the whole day. At the same time, I don't have to be required to do things which I would not otherwise do. It's so good to be free!

when you are not happy on where you are and suddenly had the guts to step out it is a good feeling to be free. to end something that made you what you are not and in a situation where you dont deserve it it is so so good to be free. well about your smoking i hope you quit. it is good for you and for the people around you. thanks for the response
