Have you ever made one of those decisions or commitments where immediately following setting it in stone, you begin to wish you could get in a time machine and undo what you just did?
Yup. My life this week.
Nothing has been confirmed about said commitment yet, but I am just now realizing the repercussions to what I just signed on for. As most of you know, this fall I am student teaching/ interning at WV high school. I love it. I mean I really really love it. At first I was completely unsure and not confident in my choice of profession, but I love my kids/ mini adults. I shouldn't call them kids. Most of them are legal. Anyways, I was approached this week about an opportunity to sub for 3 weeks for another English teacher in my hallway. She had to take a leave of absence for personal reasons and her kids really need someone consistent in their classroom. Voila! Me. I had to interview this morning for the position and should hear back by tomorrow. I am excited about the chance to get experience and GET PAID for it, but I am sad because I will be leaving my wonderful seniors for juniors and sophomores.
Also didn't think about how I would be at WV all day every day and how that would affect Kaleb's mobility in getting to class. I won't get done at WV till 4... Kaleb has a class at 3....I have the only car....we are a 20+ min walk from campus: Problem.
I am not totally regretting volunteering to apply for this position, but I am nervous. I have decided though that if I get the job and for my future classes I am going to make them call me Kim Sunsangnim. (Basically this is Teacher Kim in Korean) I love it!
