no phone no phone

so yesterday i had a job interview and i got the job! yaya! but then i turned down the job this morning... which, in all honesty, was probably a silly move, but the job was going to require me to commit saturdays every weekend until june to working, and i'd also have to go to 12 all day long training sessions in seattle that would take me away from teaching my middle school kids, which i am not a big fan of doing.

so i had a second job and then i didn't! now i need one... whoops

also! i got a phone interview with lewis and clark! it'll be tomorrow at noon so nobody call me unless you don't want me to answer, suckas. i've been reading snippets of all these education books i have so that i can catch up on my critical pedagogy lingo. i'm practicing saying things like "while the complexities of the student and curriculum that we teach are vast and important to understand, perhaps more so is the thorough understanding of the complexities that make up who we are as a teacher - who we are before we enter the classroom and how our classroom changes because of that." wow, i just pulled that out of my ass... i'm not going to lie, i'm kind of impressed with myself. bs-ing essays for the past 6 or 7 years has really helped.

on a final note, henry shorted out a row of trees lit with lights outside of the fairhaven green today by peeing on them.

  1. You're gonna kick those frontiersmen's asses. If you are going for a masters in education, it comes highly recommended by many of my mom's friends. Good luck.
