So, both schools wanted me for science. I chose the one close to home, because the other other one is at least a 40 minute drive. I have one 7th grade class, 3 regular 8th, and one honors 8th. I asked for a book to start planning and the guy brought me one grade and not even the teacher's edition. I'll call them about that tomorrow. I thought I ( Read more... )

I haven't updated in a while because I wanted to spare you guys the up and down of my job search. I had 3 interviews this summer, so far. I think I mentioned two of them. Obviously I didn't get the job at my old high school that I was sooooo excited about. I think I mentioned that one before. Well, then I had an interview at another high school, ( Read more... )

So, I didn't get the Liza Jackson job. I called a Christian school today and they're hiring, and they told me to fill out an application. I think I'm going to take the middle grade integrated curriculum test so I can teach anything 5th-9th. I think I should be able to pass it easily if I could pass the social studies one on 2 days of studying.

Anyone who knows about computers help me out. My sister was online here, and my screen name popped up on her buddy list...while I was standing over her shoulder. Does that mean someone signed onto my screen name? She tried IMing it, but of course no one answered. Then I got online and that screen popped up saying there were 2 of my name on instant ( Read more... )

So, I finally decided to call this charter school here...it's a public prep school, but there's a long waiting list to get in...anyway they have IB for middle school and all that so I figured I didn't stand a chance in hell of being considered for a job...so I called today and asked the person if they had any opennings just like I asked every other ( Read more... )

Sometimes it's the little things you do that make a big impact on others.

So, I don't know if I've mentioned it, but my new job isn't that great...not for me anyway. The former community college now just college offers what they call the Educator Preparation Institute, where you can basically get everything you need to become certified teacher in one year, so I think I'm going to start that in the fall. In the meantime, ( Read more... )

I have been going to church for the past 3 weeks, which is an accomplishment for me. I didn't really grow up going to church, so I always feel kind of uncomfortable there, with all of the people who grew up that way. I have been going to a Baptist church...I had been trying to avoid the whole Southern Baptist thing, but one of my co-workers at my ( Read more... )

All week I had been looking forward to this weekend. Friday went mostly as expected...met some friends at the beach to just chill, and have a sort of picnic...the weekend starting going a littile wrong when no one brought alcohol like they were supposed to. And then I spent most of the night talking to a guy who they brought to hook me up with, but ( Read more... )

I left the freezer door open yesterday...all day. Needless to say, our freezer is now free of food. I felt like an idiot ( Read more... )
