Gimme SMOE

I had my interview with SMOE (Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education) today!

It went really well, and I feel confident with my answers. I was really nervous that my phone wouldn't work again, but lo and behold the phone rang at exactly 6pm. The anticipation was killing me and now I feel calm but excited.

At the end of the interview, my interviewer Rachel told me that she is confident that SMOE would be interested in having me teach for them. She then asked if I would be up to the task. Seriously, my heart pounded and I felt like by saying yes I would change my life forever. I almost got scared and said nothing, then I realized that I just could not pass this up. What felt like a minute in my head was probably less than 3 seconds... and then I just blurted out "yes, I am so excited!"

Alright, so the job is not in the bag... but I am confident. I am excited to do something new and stimulating. I am hoping that my experience as an English teacher will solidify my plans for the future. All I can do is wait and see... and make the best of what comes at me.

Wish me luck!
