Excitement...

In the tedious process of getting my medical tests and visa requirements, I have definitely found some things to be excited about! For one... a 3D ActivBoard!! WHAT?? Seriously Kuwait?? Y'all got technology like that?? Ok, you got me there! Next, SMALL CLASS SIZES! You don't know how much that excites me to no end! Especially when here, every year the class sizes are increased by 2, or 3, or 6 kids. Oh! Another thing that excites me is camel rides! Yes, I am looking forward to riding camels. (Don't look at me like that!) O'an let's not forget the fact that I got to fill out all these spread sheets for ANY and EVERYthing I can think of that I need in my classroom! Since the school is new, we are starting from scratch. The wrong thing to do is tell me to spend some money! You know I went ham...

Now one thing that doesn't excite me too much is having to be hemmed up in clothes in a place that feels like Hell's Foyer in the summer. Yeah, I don't even like clothes in the summer here! Pray for me. I'aint trying to go to NOBODY'S jail for indecent exposure, especially in a place like Kuwait! Sigh, So... bring on the shoulder and knee covers.Who knows, it may not be as bad as I'm thinking...

Crunch Time

Now that I am on Spring Break, I can actually sit down and sort through the laundry list of things I have to get completed! Omg its so much! 1st thing is get my documents together that I have to have legalized. I have a copy of my teaching certificate (Thank you GAPSC for being able to print "Official" copies from my own printer!!). I have to call UWG to get an official copy of my degree. I *hope* the fingerprint and background check I already did is good enough and I can just print that off too. As I learn how to do stuff and get it done, I will post it on here because hopefully I can help somebody else with the process... Because I am SO going to be "encouraging" others to come along for the ride!  <3
