Work, Work, Work, School?

Yes. It's only 2 weeks away now. WHOA. That came fast. It feels like just yesterday was my last final of the spring semester where I spent the wee hours of the morning kissing the bf goodbye. He has been gone now since the middle of May. Officially since June 1st and it is almost September! That means, deployment is moving along quickly. And just as a personal reminder I love him more and more every single day even though we are apart. =)
I am a little nervous to start school. While I am sure I will enjoy it, I am not sure I'll be able to immediately crack down on homework. I also have not discussed my latest temptation: a teaching position. I spontaneously applied to something I saw in an email from the Spanish department at school. Did not spend too much time thinking about it although I had been thinking of finding something in the near future. So when this presented itself I thought, hey why not? So I sent my resume, which does have some teaching experience on it along with teaching classes I have taken. I scheduled an interview and was on my way about 3 days later. Faster than I expected. Okay. While getting ready I decided "What would I wear in a classroom?" Not some stiff suit-like ensemble that's for sure. Even though that is the typical interview attire I just didn't want to seem too anxious. So instead I wore, khaki pants (I need to find a new pair ASAP), flats, a floral print top, a white cardigan and put a cute braid in my hair. I thought that was teacher-like.
It went fantastically. The interviewer and conveniently the owner of the Academy and myself totally clicked. She admired my passion for foreign language and commended my understand for both students who love them and those who just hate them. I get it. It's not for everyone. She even told me she felt strongly about me as a candidate and I told her I would love to pursue the opportunity.

I could see it. Senorita Millen. Sounds cute. I need to email her now to follow up.


And for other news. Which is definitely not 100% probably not even 50% but nevertheless something to possibly anticipate. The boyfriend has a trip coming up. He's coming stateside! What a relief for maybe 2 weeks? I can't remember. Anyway the important part is that this trip may allow a small window of time for a girlfriend visit! He already promised I could fly to see him if it all worked out and he had some time off! I would DIE and cry. What a nice thing it would be!

Puhlease keep your fingers and toes crossed for me!!! For us!

tata for now
