Although I might have figured out what I wanted, I never bothered to actually look at what I want. I keep saying "I know what I want, I know what I want." But then I look at what I want and I have to laugh. What I want doesn't tell me anything! I need to narrow down my search -- Saying "I want a full time, permanent English Teaching Job in England" isn't specific at all. Because how many of those jobs are there? Craploads (especially when you are looking at TES every week and they say "You have 329 new job postings).
So, today I narrowed down that search. I am aiming for Essex. Not just anywhere in Essex. I am aiming for performing arts schools in Essex. I have a certain school in mind, so I am just going to smile and wish -- hopefully I will hear something very soon.
I have also figured out ways of shipping to the UK -- USPS actually has the best deals. I intend on shipping plenty - especially because buying some things there will just make the moving in process on heck of a lot more expensive. But kitchen stuff -- come on - Martha Stewart is at KMart for a fraction of the price. As for my quilt and my books....well, some things you just can't live without. Other things are just going to have to be purchased there -- IKEA is my new best friend.
I only have four more weeks left of school. I even interviewed for the open position this past week. It's exactly the job I want -- but I know if I take it I will never do what I want. I have to go now.
Urinetown remains well. The wall is partially finished. I am looking forward to spending the weekend in the rafters of the barn. I must upload my pictures so I can share this lovely work of art which I have created.
