Say hello to the new part-time Admissions Counselor. Hi, urself. :-)
I woke up today and I was so freakin' tired. Didnt want to go in to my internship today, but I sucked it up. As usual, I'm comatose in the morning. Turned on Jaynny (pronounced Jon-nie) Piper (my cellphone) around 9am. Minutes later, he rang. What the? No one usually calls me this early. Answered Piper. It was Laurie Austin, the woman who first interviewed me for the position a couple of weeks back. She offered me the position. Even in my drunken, sleepy slumber, my reaction time was on point! I gladly accepted! Yee hoo! I'm going to be starting in a couple of weeks. Have to go over all of the Administrative and Human Resources crap: get fingerprinted, attend training, and all that other good stuff. What I'm going to say next is so crazy, but what the heck: now, I can find out if the director (who, in essence, is my new boss) is gay or not. Maybe I'll hit on him. Ha, I'm so bad. Not. No, I wont hit on him. I wanna keep my job, dammit.
This job acceptance closed the deal on telling my internship boss that I was leaving Norton. I felt so bad too because, like I had mentioned in a previous journal, I feel like I havent completed a full internship, or better yet, I have a mindset that an average internship is usually from like January to June. Whatever. So I went into Norton with the intention of breaking the bad news. Well, irony bit my ass off and took a nice, juicy chunk. Adele mentioned to me that Norton was hiring summer interns now, and I was like, oh, cool. Then she told me she was wondering when I wanted to conclude my internship. I misunderstood and thought she was going to ask me if I was interested in becoming a summer intern. Oh, contrare. She told me that I have been at Norton for about three and a half months, which is true, and that a standard Norton internship ranges for about that duration. She's letting me go, I finally figured out. She's telling me that my internship days are running out. How ironic is that?! Here I was feeling bad about telling her I was leaving Norton early, and on the exact day I planned to tell her this, she tells me that my internship is coming to an end to make way for summer interns who gladly would like to take my place. I didnt even tell her that I already accepted the job as Admissions Counselor because I was feeling so bad. I'll tell her later on this week. Funny thing is, she seemed so sorry to have to tell me that and told me she appreciated my work. Haahahahaha. I felt so much better. At the same time, she stole my glory. Hehehe. I wanted to break the bad news. It's kind of like planning to tell ur boss ur quitting and then having ur boss tell u he's firing u before u get the chance. Not necessarily my situation, but still.
So we worked out an agreement, and I'm gonna finish this month out at Norton for the next three Tuesdays, and leave them forever. Baaah! Baaah! It'll also even out my paycheck to $100 so that's cool too!
Now, I can proudly thank Evangel Christian High School for demoting me from English teacher to sub teacher, and never calling me to sub since. Thank you, Evangel. U have confirmed the fact that teaching aint for everyone, Christian schools are sometimes shadier than secular ones, and that there are silver linings around dark clouds.
