I woke up early after a fitful night of sleep punctuated with thoughts of bilingual labels and math manipulatives for five year olds. Got dressed in heels (you know I never do that!) and put together all of my professional paperwork together. Showed up to the school and ended up giving my card to one of the other kindergarten teachers who spoke with the principal. He wasn't interested in talking to me, and already had 6 interviews lined up for the day. Oh well.
So that was the end of that venture. What I realized is that I feel good for the attempt. I have no regrets for trying.
Yes, I am disappointed. Is kindergarten my dream job? No. But it would have been an in, an entry towards my dream position. It would have been a challenge, an adventure, and terrific experience.
So the path I need to take is not this one. OK, I can accept that. So I am still looking to find the path that is mine. As long as I keep on trying, I have no regrets.
