This week has been much better than previous weeks at my job. I feel like I'm getting the hang out it a little bit and am being more stern with the kids. I figure if nothing else I'm getting great experience if I decide not to stay here. But, I really am starting to love the kids...at least most of them, lol. All though I have had two fights in a ( Read more... )

I'm utterly exhausted and stressed out by work. I feel like I can never just leave it at home. I just need to relax and I'm finding it difficult to. Last week I had panic attacks all week, it was awful! And they weren't even about anything. I cannot pinpoint where exactly my stress is coming from. I think its just the lurking in the back of my mind ( Read more... )

I got the job at International Academy of Flint. I'm so excited, its so surreal. I don't even know what to do online right now because I'm so accustomed to job searching all-the-time. So, now I guess I'm going to be getting my classroom and such ready. It's all happening very quickly, but I'm very thankful. I'm in a 3rd grade position as a math/ ( Read more... )

I had my third interview with International Academy of Flint. It wasn't the best interview I've ever had. They interviewed 5 canidates for 2 positions. I'm frustrated with the HOURS of work that I've put into applications with no return. It's just overwhelming knowing that the summer is 2 weeks from being over and I'm still jobless. I feel lost. I  ( Read more... )

I fixed most of my problems that  I was complaining about last post. I went to the mechanic last week and they said it was my rotaters that were grinding and it would be about $360 to fix. I was pissed. I has just had it looked at at the same mechanic less than a month prior and had them specifically look at the brakes which they told me nothing ( Read more... )

I have been having quite a rough week since I've gotten back from up north this week. The weekend was beautiful but ugh after that. My car is making a new grinding noise on the side that I got all that work done two weeks ago! If this is something else its going to take MORE money, I just can't afford it. This stupid car is sucking the money out of ( Read more... )

I was watching Adventures in Babysitting on tv yesterday. I forgot how much I enjoy that movie. Anyway, when it got to the part with the mechanic the little girl thinks is Thor I was thinking he looked really familiar. You may need a tad of background. This actor in his Thor outfit with the grungy mechanic look and his long blond hair is the first ( Read more... )

Slum Dog Millionaire- I loved it! It was not what I thought it was going to be at all, I watched it before all the Grammy hooplah and quite honestly had no idea what it was about. If you haven't seen this movie you totally should. It was endearing and sweet and gave a glimpse into a culture I didn't know a ton about. If you look past the corny ( Read more... )

I had my second interview with the International Academy of Flint yesterday. I had to teach a lesson to the class. It went really well. I've just been applying my ass off lately, which is good I guess. It's just disconcerning sometimes because I put so much work into each application and pretty much all times I don't even get a call back. I still ( Read more... )

Ben got a tattoo today. He just called me about it. I dunno how I feel about it. I guess I'll have to see it when I see him tomorrow. I'm upset about it for no reason! I think it's because maybe I like my guys so innocent and I dunno. So its weird, because I like guys with tattoos, I think it's hot. But Ben just doesn't seem the type is perhaps my ( Read more... )
