Hear ye, hear ye:
I've decided (as of TONIGHT) that, for now, I want to...*drum-roll please*....teach gifted.
And by that, I mean teach gifted ASAP--whatever level which speaks to me first (any and all sound fabulous).
To clarify, I may or may not make next year my last year in K-ville, depending on how my instincts are running over the next few weeks or months. And I think I'm okay with that. I think gifted is actually pretty perfect, complex enough to keep me engaged, and simple enough to get me working before I'm 30, but we'll see. Nothing is set in stone, but I like the feeling I had when the lightning bolt hit me tonight. Between getting invited back to FPS Internationals to evaluate, not getting the GTRA as of now (*shrug*), working the FPS State Bowl with more finesse than prior years (aka feeling more at home, in control of time and my work), having a good talk with Fr. Bill today and giving a presentation on gifted tonight...it just...feels right. We'll see how it goes from here. I still want another Masters, but I'm praying about it for the time being if now is the time and place for it. I know it will work out for the best, so long as I keep moving and striving with my all...and keeping my outlook towards life in check.
Rising from the ashes, woo.
