I've begun to really think about what my plans are for after grad school. Actually I'm wondering if I'll finish at all. Don't get me wrong, I love school. I love everything that I am learning about teaching and I want to finish my PRAXIS tests and student teaching. I want to be able to teach in the USA eventually; however, the situation I'm in right now isn't the best. There's a reason why I moved out of my mother's house. There's a reason why I sought out a job abroad. Times are tough right now and I just have to keep reminding myself that things could be so much worse.
I actually had a phone interview today with the owner/director of a summer English camp in Korea. I'm really excited and working on getting my paperwork in as soon as possible in hopes that I will be able to participate in the camp this July-August. It is located in Yeoju Korea which is in the southeastern part of Gyeonggi-do. I'm excited to see another part of Korea that I didn't see while I was there the first time. I'm working on getting all of my paperwork sent so that I can find out quickly whether I'm being offered a position or not.
Even though I will only be in Korea for about a month I think it's definitely worth it. I need a break from Nashville to get myself back excited about what's coming in my future. I think it is so easy to feel stuck and stagnant right now. I need to remember why I am back in the U.S. and what I am working for...
Ooo coming back to the land of kimchi. It is super hot here...haha anyways would be nice to see you :)
