Midnight awaits

It's been raining. It's been dark for a few hours now. It's been a late start to my day. I worked 30 hours at minimum wage in three days to try and make some type of paper. I have been prepping for a video interview tomorrow with a charter school in Austin to become a teacher. I didn't go to school to be a teacher, but to be a journalist and a writer. I believe I would be a good teacher. I would give it my all to make sure these kids received the appropriate education they truly deserve. Everyone deserves to feel loved and cared about while trying to learn and progress with their education. I am beyond ecstatic that I decided to leave to southeast Michigan to get my bachelor's degree. It took me six years to satisfy all my credits and officially become an alumni of Eastern Michigan University. However, I did it. I accomplished it. I have to work my ass off again to get myself on the swing of working and creating an income to pay off all my debt to pursue this education. It was and will forever be worth it. I have the satisfaction of knowing that if I put my mind and energy towards anything in this world that I am capable of seeing progress, results, and quite possibly success. That is an undeniably grateful perspective to have of myself in this world. I can do it if I give it my all. That is such a beautiful gift to have and be able to share with the friends and people I love. I think about this possible position in Austin working at IDEA Academy as a teacher. This is such an incredible opportunity and I can already see myself doing the work and figuring it out. I am excited, nervous, scared, and heartbroken. Maybe, the timing isn't right. Maybe, I took too long. Maybe, I started too quickly. Back to organizing, I go.
