An Opportunity
So where does my confidence lie? I suppose it lies in my capabilities in my job. I know I do my job well, I may not be perfect but I'm committed and will go the distance every time. The returns are 10-fold when I see the looks of the students that I supply teach brighten when they see me or when I hear comments like, "Miss. Grace, you're a great teacher". That knowledge gives me confidence.
If I had a boyfriend/husband, I know I would also find confidence and strength through him. I would feel supported and that emotionally, I'd be stronger when dealing with stressful situations.
I could sure use a boyfriend right now. I'm nervous as hell. I'm starting a potential LTO tomorrow. It's starting off as just supply teaching for 2 weeks straight but on the 11th day it'll turn into an LTO but whether I get the LTO all hinges on the critical fact that the VP and principal like me and the job I do and if they feel I suit the school. Otherwise, at the end of that 2-week period or 1-week even, they can decide to choose somebody else for the job. And legally, they have to interview at least 5 people before deciding on one. Although I do have a leg up on all those interviewees as they will have seen my work, it could go either way. It's a possibility that they could like somebody else.
This is how I came to get this opportunity. Courtney told me about it and said that an LTO teacher is needed who could teach Gr. 8 Science and core subjects at another school. I told him I'm all for it so he asked for my resume and he passed it off to the VP of that school who had requested for a teacher. Then the following evening, I got a call from the VP to ask if I'm interested and that I can start on Monday. He also said to arrange for my other supply teaching assignments at the other schools to be canceled so that I can work at this school for the rest of the week.
I'm confident that he'll like my work ethic. I think after I get through the first day, I'll be just fine. I think this is just first-day nerves.
This evening I took a walk down Port Union by Lake Ontario. What a gorgeous little site it is. The spot where the big rocks are is my favourite. During the day when the sky is blue and the horizon is clear, you could sit on the rocks for hours. It's quite peaceful and serene. I'd like to go back there during the day. This evening was nice too but there aren't many lights to brighten the place. Also, the water was a bit foggy. You couldn't see far out into the lake.
I know who would absolutely love this spot - Tristan. I ought to show him this place.
