The bad days just keep rolling in...
Today I found out that I did not make the 22 people cut for the second interview at the school district I applied for. Ouch. That was most likely my ONLY chance at getting a full-time job for the fall. I was so pleased when the interview was over...I guess I should be proud that I gave it my all...
Of course that did not stop me from crying on and off for nearly 2 hours. I never should have checked my voicemail while I was at Sylvan-I was totally no help to Michael the last hour of instruction. A couple of other co-workers of mine also didn't get offered a second interview...kind of weird...we are all really good teachers...
I really wished I could have shared my disappointment with Michael tonight...he would have completely understood. But, before the first interview, he told me that no matter what happened, "things would come, things would come, things would come". Those words mean a lot right now.
I have a 20 dollar bet with a friend: if I don't talk, text, or email Michael for a week, I get money. This person knows how hard it is for me to let someone go....especially someone who didn't necessarily do anything wrong to me.
I'm definitely throwing in the towel on this week. What a disaster. My only consolation is that tomorrow night I get to see the one and only Captain Jack Sparrow on the big screen!
Until next time,
