Today I got a call from the school where I student taught to sub in a few weeks for my kindergartners!!! I am beyond excited! I cannot wait to see their little faces again! I miss them! I will also be subbing in another Kindergarten class later that week as well. Employment, Hooray!
Also, sometime this week rockerbro (my 18-year old brother who is very into music) is going to pick up my diploma for me (since the University is about an hour away and he is there)...and then hunterbro (my 20-year old brother who is very into hunting) is going to bring it home this weekend. Yay!
And in more exciting news:
I was happy to see Barack Obama inaugurated as the 44th president today. I like him. He has brought such a sense of hope to our nation. I just hope that he lives up to all of his promises, and that things actually do start to get a little better. Especially in the world of education. I hope that he and Arne Duncan are ready to come up with something to really help children learn...especially those who are underprivileged. I am interested to see what comes of this and how it will effect my career.
I like this picture. For some reason it reminds me of something you would have seen on a Nickelodeon or MTV news special in the 90's. Especially the way they are all sitting. You know. Just the prez and his dudes rappin' with some kids in an inner-city school. (picture taken from a site called daylife.com through google images)
Some good news:
Have you ever been to The Apple? It is a site that I tend to visit on a daily basis. They have all kinds of stuff for teachers...news stories, job info, quizzes...all kinds of interesting stuff.
And in mediocre news:
I have not heard anything from the preschool position I sent my resume for. I am still hopeful, since I only applied less than a week ago. I guess I was just hoping to hear back right away. At least, for now, I have to substitute jobs lined up.
Ah, the life of the unemployed.
