Listening

I wanted to update this forever ago, I've been so busy... and then Saturday THIS past Saturday, I WAS going to get to sit down and actually blog, but then we lost power! gahh.

We lost power for about 30 hours. We had a very strange October snow storm here in PA. No fun... it was no fun at all.

So lot's has happened since my last post.

I had my interview with LD school district and it went really well! I got the job. I am now a computer aide at an elementary school!

It's just amazing really, how it all worked out and I'm comforted by the fact that I know this is where God wants me. (although I don't know why)

I had applied for it because my friend who works in the district mentioned it to me. Otherwise I wouldn't have thought twice about applying for an aide position.
I didn't here anything for about a week or so, and had started to think nothing would come out of it. Then, one Monday I was subbing in the district (for only like the second time) and the lady who does the sub calls just happened to work at THIS specific elementary school. She came into the room when the students had technology and asked me if I am "good with this stuff" because SH needed a sub to fill in until they found a new computer aide. So I of course, was like Yes! I applied for that! So...that's how I got to be subbing there for about a week-ish.
They called one day and asked me to interview, and the rest is history.

I was very unsure about it all. I prayed about it a lot. Where I once had feelings of uneasiness and frustration, I started to feel peace and excitement about the position. My mind became much more open to it, and that's how I just knew it was God's little push because I had been praying.

I have days where I really like it. (today I just feel all out of sorts for some reason...probably unrelated to the job)
Today I didn't have any classes in the lab so I spent the day decorating and stuff. I feel like I didn't get THAT much accomplished for how much time I put in, which is frustrating.
I'll post pictures once I finish the big bulletin board. I'm hoping it will look as awesome as I'm picturing in my head. I have a bunch of ideas but it takes a lot of time to make stuff from scratch!


Remember how I applied to about a million places at the mall?? Well I finally heard back from one! I was starting to think I wouldn't hear back from anyone since it had been a couple of weeks...but Christmas Tree Hill called, and I had an interview there Tuesday night. It went really well. I think I might get it.. I'm nervous about all the driving b/t school and the mall though, which I didn't really put too much thought into until recently. We'll see.


On another note, I just feel kind of crappy right now. I don't know why... I feel so tired and lethargic, and just a little depressed? weird.. I guess I could be pmsing... sorry TMI hah

Sometimes I think I really have a need/want to be needed... and when I don't feel needed it makes me feel a little sad. I don't know why...I'm just trying to figure myself out. Do you ever do that?

I'm pretty sure I'm chopping my hair this weekend. It's really long. Longer than I've had it since I was like 15. I'm donating it and I'm really excited to get it cut. Long hair is hard to take care of!

Well now that I have successfully rambled... I'll stop. ;)

Hope you've had a grand week friends.
