Kittens, School, Jobs, and Fear...
I started a new job at an assisted living facility about two weeks go. It's a good gig. I make my own schedule, and my bosses are rarely here. It's basic clerical work...filing, answering phones, doing paperwork...but I also make sure everyone else is doing their jobs (rare) and I'm currently working on marketing and publicity for the facility. Writing newsletters to contact the families, finding out about membership at the Chamber of Commerce...stuff like that.
The week I started, Brandon and I discovered two young kittens running around on the porch and playing in the rocking chairs. Needless to say, I brought them home, out of the 98 degree heat and humidity, and into a house with food and water and places for them to run and play. They're beautiful...
See???
They're a lot of fun...It's been nice to have cats around again. :-)
I was officially accepted to East Carolina last month. I sent my enrollment verification in, and am REALLY looking forward to talking to an advisor to see which of my credits are actually going to count towards my degree. I start classes Aug 22nd. :-)
I was offered a teaching job with a ballet school in Greenville. I want to do it so badly...but I'm scared...and truly, embarrassed. I haven't taught in 2 years...and I'm horribly out of shape. The last thing I want is to make someone think I can't do it because I'm rusty. Besides, what right do I have telling a girl she's doing something incorrectly when I can't show her the proper way to do it?? Just being the teacher isn't an excuse. It never has been for me. A teacher is the teacher for a reason...If he/she can't do it, why should the students be expected to?? *shrug* It just scares me. I haven't taken a class since December. I don't know how much I can even do anymore....and it sucks...guess I'll have to suck it up and figure it out...
