A month later...
Sorry guys, I gotta find a grove with this blogging thing, I always forget.
So some big events went down in this past month: I turned 24 years old, I was involved in a car accident and Andy and I almost moved to Idaho. Crazy!
My birthday was awesome. It was exactly what I wanted in a birthday, good weather, good food, drinks and great company. Thank you so much to everyone that helped with making my birthday celebration so much fun.
My car's axel was messed up, a wheel was bent and the other driver strategically hit three different panels making for a long stay in auto body shop. I still don't have my car back but i should get it this week. I'm thinking of it as a three week rejuvination at the auto spa.
To move on to something more interesting, Andy and I visited Twin Falls, Idaho last weekend. Overall, our idea of living there was "doable." It was what we imagined, not horrible but not somewhere we would try to live. There was beatiful scenery and offordable housing. I have some friends that just moved over there as well and we had a great time hanging out with them.
Andy did very well in his interview and was offered the job by the next Monday. However, he declined the offer by Wednesday morning. So, to releave some of you, we will not be moving to Idaho.
On the other hand, the possibility of moving to Spokane is a little stronger now. Last Monday and Tuesday, two women from the WSU and EWU's SLP grad program (that's the Speech-Language Pathology program I'm waitlisted at) came to my work to observe our program. One woman is the director and supervisor of the preschool that is within this SLP program. The other woman is a teacher in the school. They are thinking about including the little one's, about three years old, into their pre-school program as well. So, they wanted to see how we run our class.
They watched my class for almost two hours and it went pretty well. At snack time, while the kids are quietly stuffing their mouths, I started some small talk about the SLP program in Spokane. I mentioned that I was on the waitlist for each school. The teacher, not the director, said, "Your totally in!" I shrugged off her comment because I know that can't happen so easily but the women continued to inquiry about my application. The director took my name and asked my a few more questions. She told me she was "thoroghly impressed with my work" HOLY CRAP!
Then she went to my coworker that just graduated from this program and she and my boss gave me great reviews. My coworkers are so amazing! The director woman called each school right then and there and had my name moved to the top of the list! AHHH!
The next day she explained that there are no guarentees because someone has to decline for me to get in. However, many of the out of state people decline because the tuition is so expensive. So, she actually told me, "there is a strong likelihood" that I will get in. If there is good news, I should find out by mid-June-ish.
That's the update on my life. Other than the wicked virus/head-chest cold that I have right now, I'm reall happy. I feel like my life has been exiciting with all of these new opportunities arising.
Hey everyone, let's hang out soon, 'K? I love you guys
Take care and don't get sick!
