Just call me Ms. Wilson!

I got a teaching job! I'll be starting at St. John the Apostle Catholic School in Oregon City on Monday. I'm teaching two 6th grade health classes (2 hours each week, with 1 hour prep). I'm also a sub for the TA's and teachers. There are also some additional possibilities for more teaching later in the year. We'll see what happens.

For the time being, I'm going to continue working at Staples, but I need to talk to my boss and clarify my schedule and make sure he's ok with the change and all. Nervous for that conversation.

Anyways, my sister and I are watching Ever After right now. I absolutely LOVE this movie. It got me thinking, though. There's that one scene where Henry finds out that Danielle is not Nicole De Lancret, and he discovers that she is infact a servant. The raw emotion that I feel during that time seems to be the emotion I have felt a lot throughout my life, pre-teen years to now. It's that feeling that you're just not good enough for the guy you're interested in. I have that feeling all the time, and I absolutely hate it. I think Cinderella (especially this Ever After version) is a wonderful story that crosses those boundaries of class and societal rules. While we may not have those class distinctions today, there are times I feel that a guy I am interested in is "out of my league". This story is a great reminder that love crosses those "league" boundaries. I just hope my Prince Henry (or Charming in the Disney Cinderella) shows up pretty soon, and he realizes what a catch I am. =)

Ok. That's all for now. I need to do another Scripture Trip. I am too tired tonight, but hopefully I'll do one tomorrow.

  1. Just a brief thought...

    I never thought that Joel would be interested in me whatsoever and 5 years ago had a huge crush on him. Time paid off. :)

    Don't sell yourself too short. You are a beautiful, intelligent soul with a lot of love and kindness to share. God will show you the path when he feels you are ready.
