Spring Break!
Spring Break is finally here! I've been needing a break so I can get myself organized. I was going to start filling out teaching applications online for various school districts, but then saw that I need 3 references handy to fill out...and I need to get those. I emailed a couple people today about it, but will probably try to call them tomorrow or choose someone else. We'll see.
I came home yesterday in time for dinner. My family went to some really good bbq place where I got a rib plate. Sooo tasty! Today I went shopping with my mom and then played DDR with my sister tonight. Oh...and my blonde moment for the day...
Katelin and I needed to go to the store to get batteries and we were trying to decide which brand is better: Energizer or Duracell. They were both the same price, so then we were looking for an expiration date on them. Well Energizer had "Use By: 2012" We thought for about 5 minutes about what date 2012 is . . . trying to figure out what month, day and year it was trying to tell us. Then finally Katelin with all her brains figured out it was only the year 2012. We had a good long laugh at ourselves for how long we pondered that. We ended up getting Energizer because Duracell didn't have a date on theirs, so figured we'd be safe and go with a batter that should be good for the next 6 years.
Tomorrow I don't know what I'm doing. Hopefully doing my first online application, or at least typing up my resume for a teaching position. Today I went through and found the website for a few school districts I'd be interested in and then looked up the starting pay. That took a good amount of time 'cause I have about 15 different school districts on my list. Some in the area, and some that are places that I think would be fun to live. My ideal position would be to get hired on where I am student teaching, and if that doesn't happen then that district is nice, but then I started thinking about that I really don't have anything tying me down . . . I can venture off and live somewhere I wouldn't normally. But then again I know I will want people around my first couple years of teaching for when I have my hard days which will be many. But I don't know what will happen. It's in God's hands, and I need to get on the ball and do my part of applying so I do have options that God can work with.
