So yesterday was my birthday. It was pretty low key, but fun and relaxing. I went to my stretch class in the morning like I do every saturday. It's such a great way to start off a day. Except for the fact that I'm least flexible in the morning. Luckily my modern dance class is at night and so is the ballet class I occasionally take. After stretch class I had cake with my family. Then I got dressed up and met up with my friends and sister at my sis's boyfriend's house. He was nice enough to offer his house as a meeting up place for everyone. We had a couple glasses of wine and went to a nice restaurant for dinner. After dinner we went back to my sis's bf's house and chatted and drank another glass of wine, then called it a night. All in all it was a pretty good bday. I will be scheduling a massage and facial as a little gift to myself after I get my work schedule for the week.
To make things even better I had heard from the placement assistant the week before. She just wanted an updated resume. I sent that to her a few days later. I had a minor freak out thinking I was not qualified since I had no work experience in the biology field. But I have a degree in biology, and that alone qualifies me to teach science and english. I was freaking out for nothing. And I have some pretty good volunteer experience on my resume too. I'm not too worried anymore. So I finally finished tweaking my resume and sent it back to her. I can always apply to grad school or the master international program if PC doesn't work out now. Although I would really like to do the Fellows program after PC. I haven't heard anything from my actual Placement Specialist yet, but I am patiently waiting. Hopefully it will only be a few more weeks at most. At least I know whoever he/she is, they have my file on their desk (probably at the bottom of a mountain of other applicant's files).
Happy belated birthday! Like all of us waiting, I hope you hear something soon.
