I'm basically a fetus...

Today I got to thinking about where I stand in the world of education. I am basically a fetus when it comes to teaching. I am a brand new, state of the art teacher who still has a lot of growing, adventures, and life lessons ahead of me. I can't wait for those adventures to come! Well I guess I have no choice but to wait.

Most days I am ok with just being a sub but some days are hard. Especially when someone asks me if I have a job yet. I hate that question. I get it a lot. Then I am forced to awkwardly convince you I am happy being a sub when I can't even convince myself that. How about you ask me what kind of cheese I like instead of if I have a job yet. Then I can awkwardly convince you that I like Gouda. lol

Before I forget I need to make a correction about my first blog. It was not the season finale of Project Runway last night, that is next week. Imagine how disappointed I was.

Being a sub does have its perks. Take today for instance. I didn't have to go in. I made the conscious decision to sleep past 6am! It was rather nice not to be awake before the sun.

My interview was today. I walked into the school feeling confident and a little uneasy. I don't know if I can handle another rejection. I walked into the office where there sat one other person. I was like, "Great I get to meet my competition before the race even starts". I'd rather not put a face with failure should I not get the job. She turned around to face me and all my uneasiness, and unfortunately confidence, flew out the window. It was my good friend Wendy Lee! We did our internships together and I absolutely adore her. The fates thought it would be nice to pit two good friends against each other. Just wait fates, Wait till I catch you alone in an alley. After exchanging pleasantries we convinced each other that we would be happy if either one of us got the job. Which knowing Wendy, I would. Overall I thought the interview went really well. There was only one question that I got tongue tied on and fumbled with words. They are suppose to let me know tomorrow afternoon. After the interview Wendy and I joined a close friend for diner at Cheddars. It was a rather nice day.

So, 2 blogs in a row, you have referred to me as a "close friend". I think you should either (a) reveal my true identity and my blog address or (b) keep my identity secret so that it can build more suspense and questions regarding my identity.

I enjoy reading the blog and waiting to see those words, "close friend".
