June

Currently....

Thinking: I really need to put together my teacher portfolio to take to my teacher interviews. 
Hoping: I get some phone calls for new interviews.
Missing: My students I student taught. I will never forget them.
Listening: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse... My daughter Kaeli never gets tired of watching.
Loving: The warm weather, despite the tornado warnings and thunderstorms. I love warm nights and mornings. 
Wanting: A new lap top. I prefer a Mac since every other lap top I have ever owned has failed me. I love my iPad but doesn't quite do everything I need it to do. Besides, I really want to fancy up my blog. 😜
Wishing: This summer will contain many memories and blessings for my future.
Needing: Dinner and laundry to do itself. 😁

Interview

So now that I officially have my teacher certification, I have applied in several school districts. I had an interview with Amarillo ISD personnel; however, now I am waiting to hear from principals for a position. School is over this Friday so I am hoping I will be notified for interviews for my first teaching position. I am really eager to begin my career. I am really nervous and scared about not getting a job this time around but I am willing to do whatever it takes to help me achieve my goals. I have been reading a book to help ease my nerves about any upcoming interview. I don't think my interview I had with AISD was great because I was so nervous and not as confident as I would have liked to have been. The book is called, "Ace your Teacher Interview," by Anthony, Fredrick's. It has been a great read so far, I just need to practice my own answers so I will be well prepared for my own personal interview.
