So, I think I'm still in relative shock that I'm graduated, a Masters student, and going to be teaching full time.
I think I'm mostly in shock that a school chose me over someone else. I mean, don't they know that I'm not prepared to do this sort of job? Don't they know that I'm not experienced and that I'm completely unprepared to take on 150 children? That I'm disorganized and scatter-minded, and that half the time I have to bounce ideas off people in order to get a decent idea of what I'm doing? That I have no clue as to what names go along with what pedagogy strategies, and that I'm still lost when it comes to names of teaching strategists?
And yet... I came off as competent and smart enough to lead a classroom?
What in the hell was I thinking becoming a teacher? And what were they thinking when they took me in?
Writing is such a nice way to relive--I MEAN, RELIEVE stress...

They were thinking...What a great teacher she'll be. She loves the kids, the school, and the job itself. She's humble and extremely open-minded. What a perfect fit! I know you'll be GREAT!
