Starting my old/new life


I title this post old/new because of where I am right now.  I am back to where I started, where I grew up.  This is not at all a bad thing.  There have been many things in my life, may adventures that have brought me back here.  I lived in London for two months and fell in love with the people and the city.  I then packed up my life, packed it all in my Xterra, and moved to Arizona.  I only knew one person there and really had no idea where my school was.  I just knew that I wanted to experience something new and different.  Different then the life I had known in Jamison.  New, where no one knew me, where I started over.  Two years went by.  I met some pretty amazing people that I will cherish forever.  I got the experience I needed to succeed here in my teaching career.  I honestly had so much fun.

But a part of me was still back east, back at home.  Any one who knows me knows that my family and I are extremely close.  The ease that I feel at my parents’ house is like none other.  No matter where I have lived I have always felt like this was home, this was where I have always belonged.

So here I am back in Jamison, living at home and working for my Dad.  Don’t get me wrong I love working for my Dad, I know all the ins and outs of his office.  We work well together.  But I know I need to be teaching, I want to be teaching.

So my mission now is to find a job.  I have applied to as many places as I can.  I’m working my butt off.  This is just a very horrible time to be looking for a job.  People ask me why I moved here if I had a job in Arizona.  My answer is because I missed the east coast, family and friends.  Everyone out there reading this throw out good vibes for me.  I need all the help I can get.
