I GOT THE JOB!!!!

good news! i got the job at the school i loved! it's called brooklyn community for media and arts high school. check out the link: http://www.bcamhs.org/home.aspx
i am soooo excited. i found out on friday and i was ecstatic. i went to do the demo lesson on wednesday. the principal called me on friday morning. this is how his message went:

"hey crystal belle. this is the principal at bcam. we want you to work here next year and for the next 25 years! i hope you will accept our offer."

this message truly made my day on friday, especially considering all of the rain!

the weekend turned out to be great. my baby and i took the staten island ferry for fun! he got to see all of the sights since he is still new to this "land of the the free." haha. so yeah, we got a great close up of the statue of liberty. afterwards, we visited ground zero. that was traumatic...as always. finally my husband got a suit for his interview tomorrow at the plaza hotel! he is super excited and i pray to the lord he gets the position. he looked extra hot in the suit (ooh la la!). when he tried it on in the store i kept saying: "wow baby, you look sooo good in that suit." he blushed and shook his head as if he didn't care.....i know he did! haha.

so i guess i have to break the news to my current principal very soon. sigh. that shall be interesting. he really really likes me and is practically eating out of the palm of my hand...but, i need a better school, with a dedicated staff! it's not that much fun being one of few dedicated teachers. that is the position i am in now. that will change soon! so yeah, the principal at the new school just asked me if i would like to teach summer school....i think NOT...that is my time to WRITE, WRITE, WRITE!

well, i am off to read my trashy novel, then off to bed. it's almost 9pm! almost past my bedtime! yes, i'm usually in bed by 10pm. i don't play! esp, since i wake up at 5:15 everyday.

peace & nappiness

p.s. i curled my locs and they look FIERCE!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! This is so exciting! I think you're going to have a great experience your third year, and I'm sure your principal will get over it. :o) I'm so happy and excited for you!

Good luck to your babe on his interview! And isn't the ferry fun? J and I did that once and then we actually walked around in Staten Island. :o)

And, yeah, as for your comment, I do think that ignorance about a topic leads to fear, but all I want is for my family and friends to educate themselves on the topic in the same way that I did because I can't be the spokesperson for home birth, ya know? at least not yet! I think you should totally do it once you two have kids. Aren't you trying soon? :o)
