I wasn't much on yesterday FH got really sick I was taking care of him I ended up staying at his house last night and I just got back home...trying to rush it so I can get ready to go to work. Another thing is that yesterday was just not a good day for me....I had applied for Teach for America and i didn't get in the program I was soo soo sad all day. FH was soo nice even when he was sick he came and picked me up from work and was there for me all the time. I am really really crushed that I got rejected. I really really want to be a teacher. I also applied for NYC teaching fellows but I am still waiting on a decision probably won't find out til Nov. I am very nervous. I have thought already if I don't get in I will get a full time job after I finish schoo. I am getting my BA in May. My job has offered me a better position with my BA. But I still wanna teach so I would like to go to grad school for this if in in fact i don't make it..... I am sorry ladies I wasn't on too much quite frankly I feel horrible. I hope you are all staying dry in this horrible rainy day

So sorry to hear that. However there are other programs if you want to be a teacher. (I personally dont like the fellows program because of the schools they send you to) What is your specialty area. I went through this same thing 2 yrs ago trying to get grad school money to become a teacher. Let me know your specialty and maybe I can tell you about the programs I know for that area. FM me and I am def willing to help

I want to teach elementary but my major is sociology....when i tried to get into the teaching program for undergrad at my school they asked for other requirements and it was going to take me 2 more years to graduate.... I just wanted to finish with my degree this is why I was applying to those programs :(

I'm so sorry. I am a strong believer in fate, if its meant to be it will happen. If you really want to teach don't worry it will happen. I'm sure this weather is not making you feel any better either. Go out this weekend and cheer up!

Re: sorry girls....
a friend of mine had applied for Teach for America and got rejected.....which was nuts because she was very qualified (it seems to be a bit political at times). BUT then she applied for NYC teaching fellows and got in! so there's still hope.
keep ur chin up.

Sorry to hear how bad your day was. I hope the Teaching Fellows works out. If not, I know theres a career change program for teaching in St Johns, which is just 1 year full time ( I think) of school to become a teacher. My friend did it and had a great experience

I'm so sorry about your day. Don't worry, things will look up...it's hard to get a teaching job but it will come! (I know cuz I finally am one! lol). NYC is always in need of teachers so I bet you will have no problem getting into the fellows program which i've heard is great. Plus teaching NYC kids is hard but it's a very very very rewarding experience! Good luck with everything and keep us posted!
