Who knows when I sleep.
This is my usual Mondays through Thursdays.
Translating, studying, researching, stationary designing all falls after 9:00 p.m. or Friday nights, Saturdays, or Sundays.
But this schedule may change for the better. Crazier!
I was just offered a position to teach Japanese and English
at a pretty well known lingual institute in Beverly Hills.
Should I take it or not... It is a big question.
If I do take it, the classes will start at 6:00 p.m. M-Th. I may need to teach two classes per day (each 80 minutes). So I will be done teaching around 9 p.m.
The pay is better than private tutoring.
It is a great opportunity.
But I love my tutees. But it is a great opportunity as a language educator.
The facility also offers translation and interpretation services that they had asked me to help with.
All a great resume builder.
UGH... I don't know what to do. Someone help me. oh please.
So I may need to invest in a white board to display my pros and cons.
I really don't know what to do. It is a a drive. It is beverly hills.
The school is very close to my fav restaurants, Mastro's and Buchon (oh boy, I miss Vegas)!
I will meet new people. I will be teaching adults. Will that next student end up my husband?
Who knows what will happen? Will I be okay juggling the schedule? My schedule is crazy enough.
It will get crazier. Will I be able to handle it?
I still need to finish my Master's eventually. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh. lol
It's a great way to waste time. Contemplating back and forth on "what ifs."
But I think I know what I should do. It is unfortunate to have to decline a few great positions but it will be an opportunity for other people. I can still be apart of their lives.
Life throws lemons at you, like I said before, I make myself a nice cold...
Arnold Palmer!
We shall see what happens.
New work, new people, new relationships. Life only gets better!
LIVE. LAUGH. LOVE.
