Limbo and Accents!

Well I had a funny story from school but I forgot it because I was too lazy to write in my blog yesterday....drat! Today I realized I am stuck in a limbo. I went out to lunch with a group of teachers in the math department today. Good Thai food but extremely awkward situation! I think the main thing is the other teachers besides my cooperating teacher were not acknowledging my existence. The only time they talked to me was to give me their name when Ms. N introduced me at the beginning. The conversation consisted of talking about the test they just gave out today and about their current significant others. I would try to say something or ask a question, being the not shy person that I am, but someone kept over riding me and so my question or comment couldn't be heard. So as I was sitting there eating my good Thai food and observing these very "modern" (if someone recorded our lunch and gave it a rating it would have been R from their "colorful" language) teachers I had some good time to ponder on my situation. I decided I am stuck in a limbo being almost an adult but not quite there. I felt like I outgrew my University so I was ready to leave but I don't feel like I am ready for the next step and thus I have put myself in a limbo stage where I am trying to figure what the heck I am doing.


 I am not a fan of this because I am the kind of person that likes to have a plan and goals to accomplish. But I don't know what should come next. I know I am going to be a teacher, but where? People have asked me if I want to stay here and get a job. I have been saying that I am keeping that door open but that is just because I don't want to have any doors closed. I feel like I don't not want to teach here, but I don't want to either. Does that make sense? This is the point of where I wish that Heavenly Father would just tell where my path goes and I will follow whatever he would want me to do would be right and I would do it. But alas the Lord knows me well and knows that I need to learn through the struggle of deciding. I just don't like this limbo. But I made a sort of commitment today. Ms. N told me that in order to teach here in Nevada I have to take a certain class on Nevada Law and constitution and then pass a test on it. So I am going to look into it, I haven't committed to anything more than that.... but I will look into it!


Oh I remember the story now! I guess I just needed to get that off of my chest to clear my mind. Yesterday, I was asked to help these girls with their monologues they would do for their midterm exam and so we went into another room to do so. The first monologue was the overdone but good final monologue of Emily in "Our Town". I mainly just helped her to understand what was going on so she could make more solid decisions of how she was going to say things and how she was going to do her blocking. The second monologue though the girl was struggling with I think she said it was from the play "Warnings" I had never heard of it but the scene was a very dramatic one. Her husband just told her that he was going to quit his job. Her scene is an explosion of a southern temper, an outburst of emotion that has been stewing for a while. Well she wasn't letting it free she was holding it back so after trying many different things I showed her how I would do it. After my mini performance she just looked at me and then asked, "How long did it take for you to learn that accent?" The funny thing was I didn't even try to do an accent! I just laughed and told her that I am from Texas and it usually shows more when I am angry. She told me she wanted to do an accent and how she could learn to do it and I told her to watch "The Help". 


Ha ha so ya that was that! If you have any advice for me in my limbo stage be free to comment! Thanks! Come again!
