Middle School here I come!

I honestly never thought I would be reentering the Dark Ages that I call Middle School, but lo and behold, I am.

I just got a job teaching at Cooper Middle School in Fairfax County, VA. I will be teaching 7th grade U.S. History. Crazy.

(This is the only picture I could find!)

Here's a little factoid...Did you know that Fairfax County is one of the most prestigious school districts in the United States? I can't believe I'm even worthy enough to enter this district, but here I come, nonetheless.

Anyway, so many miracles have occurred with getting this job. I can't even begin to explain. Lets just reiterate this true point of doctrine: GOD IS A GOD OF MIRACLES.

If you want to see a visual of where I live to where I work, this link will provide you with the greater picture:

And if you're interested in the kind of life I will be leading as a teacher, here's the website.

Woot woot! You're a real life teacher. Way to take a leap of faith. You'll be a great teacher for those kids.
