Jun. 3rd, 2010 06:50 pmSo I have a job! \o?
It's low-pay and fr srs my LEAST FAVORITE age group to work with--not because the children are any less delightful, but because planning lessons that will appeal to both a five-yo and a twelve-yo is stressful and more or less possimpible. BUT IT IS FULL TIME WORK SO YAY.
They can't formally employ me until I find my Social Security card, which my mother may have lost; in which case, until I get a new one. I am using this time productively to apply for jobs which would pay me more and/or not be a wide-age-range gig.
Also, they have not assigned me a roommate for next semester AT ALL. They might, still, if someone puts in a late application or whatever, but for right now I HAVE A WHOLE APARTMENT TO MYSELF.
I can't even imagine the luxury that would be. A freezer! All to myself! Space to let my clothes dry and to study! A television I actually have access to occasionally! A kitchen that can be COMPLETELY, TOTALLY, UTTERLY gluten-free!
I'm trying not to be TOO excited about it because it could be snatched away from me at any time, but it is SO WONDERFUL to imagine.
So in other words, yesterday was a day of Good News, and I am trying not to wait for the anvils. \o/\o/\o/\o/\o/\o/\o/
