Rejected!

So I had a shitty day. First I call that school and they might want me to come in but never called me back. I hear that its a terror school, but I shouldn't take it too seriously. Let's face it, most of the schools that I could potentially work at, being that I am a new teacher are dreadfully in disarray.

Next I go to the meeting with the placement people (I demanded that they meet with me 'cause I was having a lot of trouble.) It turned into more of a therapy session, I was fighting the tears. He gave me some good advice and was very honest. He said my resume was very basic and nothing stood out to him. How would I make it stand out? He didn't have anything to say to that, just that it was blahh. So I haven't saved the world yet, or done anything extraordinary, I'm fairly young I have plenty of time for that.

Then I get an e-mail from the other school that claimed they wanted to interview me, but I guess they reconsidered because they threw on the ol' freeze excuse. Yes that district is still frozen, but that never stopped anyone from hiring. So more bullshit and lies. I guess it's better than the truth. It's hard to recover from being rejected so much. It's hard to wake up the next day and be positive and upbeat. That was the main advice the fellows guy gave me, be upbeat and positive. Convince the school that even though it sux and is run horribly, you have the plan to bring positive change. I have to shift my thinking here.

My horoscope today was pretty nice so I'll end on a high and include it below:

Some sort of challenge will come your way around the time of Thursday's lunar eclipse, but you will overcome it with ease. Act fast, act tough, and don't doubt for a moment that you have what it takes to succeed-- it's a talent you were born with.
