Well since my terrible interview just a few weeks ago, I have been re-evaluating where exactly I am going. For about a year now I've been searching for a job, hoping to find something low-maintenance. I have been unsuccessful. But now, despite the terrible situation at work right now and how annoyed I am with the bosses for getting us here (and yes they currently believe that nothing is their fault), I will stay here a year longer. By then I will have much of my debt paid off, my car paid off and hopefully will be accepted to graduate school. I have resisted graduate school for a long time because I don't really know if teaching is for me. I have no idea if I would really be good at it or if it is any less stressful than what I'm doing now. Teachers constantly tell me (I'm the education reporter so I talk to them all the time) that they are unappreciated and that what they do takes just as many hours as any one else they just don't get paid for it. I am constantly annoyed with the WASL or TAKS or whatever the local test is so I think that high school is probably not for me... also... the politics of universities bug me. I have no desire to go into politics and hate it in the office even more. So to me it seemed like there was no option for teaching. But I think that if I go to graduate school I could teach at a private school or at a junior college level. So, that is where I'm going. I think. :S Anyhow, this changes a lot of the purpose behind my goals and I think that I need to re-evaluate my 100 Day Challenge altogether. So... Tomorrow I"ll begin again and post some new goals and start over.
Here we go!! Thanks for being on the ride!
