A Potential Preschool Teacher in an After-College Crisis

In the midst of all this substitute-teaching anticipation, I have been constantly searching the Internet for job prospects. To my surprise, there are quite a few places in my area in need of people with degrees in ECE to teach preschool. So, since I have a desperate need to be in the classroom, I have applied for a few. One of which would require me to relocate to my best friend's apartment (where one room has conveniently just opened up) about 45 miles from where I live now. The only downside to that would be that I'd have to start paying rent...which I do not do now (thanks mom & dad!) However, I would be living with my BFF, so maybe I should just go for it.

Speaking of paying rent, for Christmas my grandmother (who is one of my favorite people ever) got me this book:


It's a guide to how to deal with life after college. I picked it up to begin reading it last night and I am still astonished by how right-on it is with my life right now. I am really going through my after-college crisis right now. It feels good to know that most people feel this way after college. Beore picking this book up, I seriously thought I was the only one! I am not too far into the book yet, but so far it seems very helpful. Who would have thought that something my grandma randomly (it was probably just on a display somewhere) picked up at Borders could actually be relevant and useful???
