Ok, so I'm not going to Santa Fe, and I've not resorted to selling "papes" on the street, but at this point almost anything is on the table :)
I didn't get the job at the Christian school and still haven't heard from the Italian Immersion school but I don't think I'm qualified for it. I applied to schools in Ethiopia and Italy (Milan), but nothing has come of it. I will spend the summer searching, but my new plan is to finish my masters at Biola if I don't have a job by August. This could be beneficial for me overseas and also allow me to research further into international education systems. Unfortunately, the project I was working on with the Biola Education Dept. fell through, but I trust God will show me a way to fulfill my vision for overseas education networking. I would also love to take Italian and get my TEFL certificate with Oxford Seminar sometime in the year, while volunteering at schools I've worked in before to stay connected.
For now, I'm off to Italy May 31-June 20. I would appreciate your prayers as I will be with non-Christians almost exclusively and without internet access. Pray that God directs me further with His plans for me regarding that country and that I can see my friends in Roma.
Thank you for taking the time to catch up on my life. This is a big week for me as I say goodbye to a lot of my dear friends who are moving back "home," finish student teaching, move house, and leave for Italy. I would love prayer for health, clarity, efficiency, and rest.
