The World According to Leslie

Today, it is mandatory for all UNCC student teachers to attend the Education Job Fair on campus. We have known about this day for awhile. However, just a couple days ago, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools announced they are cutting almost 900 jobs and might have to close some schools because of budget issues for next year! I'm really in need of a full-time paid teaching job for next year! Pray that God will open doors for the job I need. Until next time........

Right now, I'm trying not to get nervous. I hate going to job fairs. I really need a job, but I just wish that someone would call me and say "Hello? Leslie? I have a job for you. Come Monday and fill out all the paperwork." I can stand in front of churches and groups of people and sing and talk, but I hate talking to people one-on-one. That's probably why I haven't gotten a job yet. I hate interviews and they can tell it. (It's like a dog smelling fear. I'm afraid of all dogs, and they know it!)

Chasity finally calmed down once we actually got to church. Then last night we had a blast at Crossover Kannapolis. I wish everyone could have been there! It was great! I'm still using Lisa's computer! She is so super nice...when she wants to be. :) This Friday, I'm going to be attending a job fair for teachers only. I'm really in need of a job. All of the local school districts will be there, so I will get to interview and talk to them then! (I need to go shopping again to get that outfit I really wanted when I went shopping last Thursday! lol It would be AWESOME for that job fair! Since I think I need to get other things done, I won't be going to the store again this week. I will have to find something else cute to wear to the job fair! :) I...
