I know I havent posted in a while. And, thats because I didnt think anyone would be too enthralled by my current twelve hour work-days in dallas, tx. Its good to be home with my friends, but I'm really itching to get back out there. It is for this reason that teaching is the perfect profession for me. I can't think of another job that allows as much time off for travel.
So if you must know, I am currently an elementary science teacher. I work for a company called High Touch High Tech. I go to a different elementary school in the metroplex everyday and teach 3X1.5 hour science classes to k-5th graders. Im like a guest speaker, which sort of makes me a celebrity, after all, a kid did asked for my autograph a few weeks ago! Im still a personal trainer at night as well. These jobs make for long days, but LORD WILLING I will get a regular teaching job in August, and then things should calm down a bit.
Even though I wont update this little gem all the time, I have decided to keep it as my public travel journal for every spring/summer/new years breaks that I plan to fill up with adventure. Also, in the event that YOU hear of a job opening where an adult is needed to travel the world and blog about it...well you'd know where to direct said company. Besides, I'd like to think the blog helps my mom worry less. Or maybe more, who knows?
On the agenda in my head right now is the West Coast Tour this July, where Shast and I will take a month to explore the western half of our own country. Possible Brisbane visit at New Years, and there is talk of visiting the ever popular Ginny in her current country of Laos (which is close to thailand and india). Don't get me started on my list of things to see in this lifetime...which is everything...its just a matter of order really.
Hittin up the great state of Maryland in April and OH MY HAPPY DAY I just found out I get a spring break in march so something will definitely be brewing for that week. You dont think Im just going to lay around my apartment all week and eat cookies do you? I gave up sweets for Lent anyway.
