A week from now, I will know whether or not I've been selected as a Teach for America corps member. I'm kind of freaking out...

It's weird how anxious I am about this.  It's not just that I think it would be a great program to be a part of. In fact, I'm actually a bit nervous about the program, because I'm not sure I'd be a good teacher.  Rather, I think the main reason that I really, really want to get into Teach for America is that an acceptance would mean that I would finally know what I'll be doing after I graduate.  For a long time, I've been anxious about my major, and what career I would take.  Right now, life after graduation is this big black space, that could be filled with anything. It's true that I do now have more of an idea of what I want to do, but nothing is definite.  Teach for America would give me a definite plan for the next two years, and could possibly set me on a path that I'll keep following even after my official commitment is up.  So these three weeks between my final interview and my acceptance notification are passing by SO slowly...

In other news, I'm right on track for NaRoWriMo!

I hope you get accepted! They'd be crazy not to pick you, and it would be their loss anyway.

I'm sure you'll get it. I've known some people to make it in that I don't understand how they did so.
