Ah, I can certainly understand making such a change then, although I've lived in a little camper with my mom that would fit into a small hotel room, so I feel like I could live in almost anything. I wouldn't be able to deal with those sorts of people either... But a teacher? I never would have guessed you'd want to deal with kids, but it seems oddly appropriate. I'm sure your future students will both fear and love you.

It wasn't the lack of space that bothered me...It was the amount of money I was paying to live there. I don't know what rent is like in your neck of the woods, but a 3 bedroom apartment goes for about $450 in my hometown and the surrounding areas, so...yeah.
I've always been passionate about art. My friend/past art teacher is actually the jerk that convinced me to pursue the whole teacher thing. I'm not sure how wild I am about dealing with high school kids every day, but teaching a couple of advanced classes should make it worth while.
