Holy nerves!
I started downloading job applications today for Syracuse school districts. It didn't really start to hit me until today. All of a sudden I started getting really nervous. Not even about moving down there to be with Jon, that part I'm SUPER excited for. It's the thought of going through the application process again and having to impress someone enough in an interview to convince them to hire me. It was scary enough going through the process in Maine. New York is so much bigger. There are going to be so many other people up for the same jobs I'll be up for. And just the application process itself is more involved than the schools in Maine I applied to. I wish I could just have a great teaching job handed to me on a silver platter. Too bad that can't happen and I'll have to work at this. The other thing is that I'm going to have to learn my way around a new city. I'm not very good at that stuff.
This is a HUGE change to my life and I'm ready for it, but I want it to be next year already. I'm ready to be settled with the job and the apartment. I want to skip the nerve racking application-interview-first day at a new school stuff. I'm confident that I'm making the right choice. It's just a matter of getting through the initial move and change.
