Good News!

Yeah, so I started writing this like 4 days ago. I am sure I had more to say, but in order to get it posted, it is as is.

 

I have been meaning to write this post all week – but I continue to feel literarily (?) uninspired, and was awaiting grand inspiration of some sort to add to my news. Hasn’t happened yet, so I will share the news anyway. I am going to teach! Yes, thats right, I got the job at a community college and will be teaching psychiatric nursing this fall. I feel a little awed about it myself. Its funny, I have been in the medical field for some time now, but this feels like a ‘grown-up’ job.  So does that mean I have to grow up? Hmm., I don ‘t think so – or maybe I will just pretend to.

So I am excited. I wonder what kind of teacher I will be, how I will interact with my students. Will I be strict and firm? or laid-back and mellow? Probably a combination of the two.
