This week has been one of revilation for me. I discovered and experienced so many things, it was pretty amazing. Last post was about work and this one will probably end up dealing with that for the most part as well. Thursday, I took the day to myself to relax and prepare for my certification exam that I had on Saturday. In the process of becoming really overwhelmed by studying and the test itself, I didn't really have a chance to post until now. The test was ridiculously hard and I am so not looking forward to getting my scores in the next 4-7 weeks.
Anyway, onto other things. Friday, I had the opportunity to substitute all day as a public speaking/speech teacher. It was so much fun and reitterated that this was really what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. We laughed and cut up but at the same time did it in a manor appropriate for the classroom and got work done. It almost felt like a sneakpeek into my future, except for the fact that I didn't really teach. In all but one of my classes, we watched a movie that I have now seen 7ish times but never seen the ending. If that wasn't enough to solidify my career decision, the rest of the weekend did. Part of my team went to New Orleans for a tournament this weekend and I stayed here for my certification test. Knowing that the team was competing and not knowing what was going on killed me. I missed not being able to look at ballots and give them things to work on, I missed hearing how their rounds went, I missed laughing inbetween rounds, and most of all I missed not being able to congratulate them when they posted breaks. This is what I want to do for the rest of my life and I can't wait until I graduate (in a year and a half) and can do this full time!
