My mom is a super smart lady. She's been a teacher for 30 some odd years, so I guess it makes sense. I was talking to her an hour ago, and we were discussing my job situation....er....and the predicament that I am in come July 30! We are talking about applications, follow-up emails, in-person deliveries of applications, insurance, and the fact that I still need to write the test that my students are taking TOMORROW! Here is the advice I get from my mom:
"Just pull an all-nighter, like you did in college."
Ha! Funny thing my mom must not have known: I never pulled all-nighers in college! Ha! But I took my mom's advice...headed to school to get the necessary materials, ran to the grocery store for some all-nighter snacks (chocolate chip cookies and applesauce...weird combo, I know!), then I got home and promptly brewed a pot of coffee. All-nighter, here I come!
Thanks for the advice, mom! I know I can count on you to get me through the ups and downs of life.
