The AP in charge of curriculum threw me a bone on Friday when she mentioned that the current Creative Writing teacher was moving to the IB department and that she ‘thought’ I’d be teaching writing next year. I’ve practically been BEGGING for the chance since my employment interview - both overtly and covertly.

I love a Brazilian!

My very-close-to-perfect fiance is from Goiania, Brasil and there’s a good chance we’ll be spending lots of summers there since I am a teacher. His entire immediate family is here in the US, and they all speak English, but I’d like to be a part of the dinner conversations when we eat with other friends and family.
