Thus endeth the lesson

And just like that, my teacher training course is over. It's amazing how fast a month passes. At the beginning, it seemed like it would take forever, and now, suddenly, it's all finished. Wham, bam, thank you, Ma'am.

So what next?

Finding a job. The ol' J-O-B. Can you feel my excitement radiating through the screen? I suppose it will be good, having a job, teaching the English, getting a paycheck again - but it's been over a year since I last worked. A nice, long, work-free vacation. And since my last job was, as most of my jobs have seemed to be, a experience in hellfire and damnation, I'm (understandably, I think) hesitant about reentering the ranks of the proletariat.

But a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do, I guess. So Monday I'll be sending out the resumes, hopefully going to some interviews, and maybe even picking up some teaching hours. One of my friends from the course already has a job starting Monday. It sounds like a pretty good company to work for - with luck, they'll pick me for an interview and then, perhaps even hire me.

This weekend, however, is finally tourist time! We're going to a gallery featuring an exhibition of photos of communist-era store windows, then heading to the Mucha Museum and perhaps the Museum of Communism. Afterwards, we're meeting my friends from the TEFL program for Afghan food. And tomorrow, it's off for a stroll through Vysehrad, an old castle/park area overlooking the Vltava, and quite a pretty sight according to my Polka dot, who claims it as her most favorite place in Prague.
