Word of the Day
Incarnational
After much debate, it has been decided that incarnational relates to incarnate or in human form. As for the rest, you will have to figure it out yourself, though the odds of you needing to use this word or even coming across it, are slim.
Bon chance.

Nothing new
That title certainly makes you want to read this post, doesn't it? Well, I'm at school, working hard on homework all day, which I kind of wish I wasn't because I have so much of it that I feel like I'm not working hard enough when I take breaks (ie goof off) and then just worry about my classes. Also, I still don't have a job, which is going to be a big problem unless I figure out how to cut expenses. I would much rather have a job, frankly, because I already live on very little. The interviews I have had so far have not panned out. Good news is my results from the CBEST are back and once I get the 'official' scores, I can send them in and start substitute teaching, and get my credential. Life is crazy. So working on that, but still broke. The money thing is starting to scare me because I don't like to see myself running out of money and that's what I'm seeing right now.
I took a needed break this past week and drove up to Utah to visit friends. I really couldn't afford it, but I needed it emotionally. Emotional health is something we sometimes don't give enough attention to. It was really neat to visit with everyone there, I saw so many people, I found it slightly amazing. And I got to go dancing, which is always good.
Now I'm back at the grind stone and trying to balance my days with homework and figure out what I need to do with the job search. Pretty much that's my life right now.

Pizza
Yeah! I had pizza for lunch! That makes me so happy!
I had a second interview today for a job. The principle wasn't there this time which was a little surprising to me. Instead I met with the head of the department, a different administrator and a couple other teachers. It was so hard to tell how well I did when there were four people I had to read, so I don't know if I will get the job or not. I think that they might have a couple other people they are seeing as well. They said they would make a decision by the end of the week.
Still, I felt like things were good as I walked out of the school. Whether or not I get this job, things will work out. I just have to have the patience to wait for it plus the determination to keep looking for things.
Anyway, I am still really happy to have had pizza for lunch!!

Interviews
I had an interview on Friday. I thought I really wanted it because it was at a middle school and it takes about nine minutes to get there. But I don't feel like it was a really good interview. Not actually having an English credential makes my life a little difficult. So while I thought it would be a great job, I don't think I'll get that position.
This morning I had an interview at a high school. This time I prayed that I would do a good job and leave a good impression. I had a really good interview there. And, the good new is, the position is actually a literacy/reading program which is exactly what I am studying! And one of the classes is scripted, so it wouldn't be a complete sink or swim. I don't know that I'll get that position, based on my true qualifications, but at least I felt good about the interview. Sometimes that is totally worth it.

The Book Whisperer
I just found this site. I totally am starting to love what I am studying!! That is good because it means there is a passion there, and I want to teach with passion!! This is what I want to do.
