A couple posts back I mentioned that I had a possible part time job lined up to be a nanny for a family. They ended up not want to pay what I charge for babysitting, so it didn't work out. They pretty much wanted to pay me minimum wage, and I think that child care and my time should be worth more than that.
I also mentioned that I might register to take the teacher certification tests for GA. I talked to Melissa, one of my roommates (for 2 years) and best friends from UGA. She is a teacher, and it was really good to talk to her about it. I really don't have a passion for it, and was only going to do it because it was a job. She encouraged me to pursue things I want to do more, but she also said that she would help me prepare for the tests if I decided to do that. After we talked I thought about it for a few weeks, and as far as teaching goes, I decided to pass on that one. I love kids, but I really have never thought I was cut out for teaching. I think I could probably do it, but I really think you need to desire to do that job, and I just don't. Melissa is an amazing teacher, and it's something she has wanted to do ever since I've known her. That's the kind of teachers that we need in our schools, not the ones who are only there because it's a job.
Anyway, nevermind what I wrote in that post a while back. None of it ended up happening. If something else does happen, I'll be sure to post it.
Love,
Meghan
