TWO WEEKS from today, we will be moving to Ewa Beach!
Turning in all my student teaching lessons and corresponding paperwork today. Huge weight will be off my shoulders. This has been such an incredible experience, being surrounded by amazing teachers. I feel so fortunate for the this experience. :)

Things are falling into place...
First, I passed my screening interview for Hawaii's Department of Education! That means I'm in the "hiring pool." The lady I spoke with said those applicants with a Hawaii Teaching Certification have priority on interviews. Then she said the number of teachers they were planning on hiring will be cut because the tsunami affected their economy greatly. I'm not sure how extreme this cut is, but hopefully I can still get a teaching position. If all else fails I'll work as a sub ($165 a day!!!) until I can get hired on. :)
I can't apply to have a Hawaii teaching certification until I have my california credential; which will be around the time they are finishing hiring.
Second, we GOT A PLACE!!! It's a condo that we will be renting from another coastie! It's a two bedroom one and a half bath, and he allows pets! We are so stinkin excited :) The condo has a pool and bbq area, washer and dryer (in the unit), and a patio. It's in Ewa Beach in the Palm Villas II. The first picture is of "our" patio, the next is what the outside of the condo looks like, and the last is the outside pool/bbq area. We are so excited! Only 3 and a half weeks left...

Almost at the one month mark....
As of today we have 31 days left, almost at that one month mark! We are both getting so excited, not only to go but to see each other. It's been over six weeks since we've seen each other and we have to about four more to go! We've been busy which helps. I'm still waiting to hear from the Hawaii Department of Education. I emailed my recruiter and he said I should be getting a letter in the mail- so hopefully I have good news regarding that to post soon.
Ben has been talking to his mentor (they call them sponsors in the Coast Guard) and he will be moving out of his condo right as we're moving over there. It sounds like a nice place in Ewa Beach. This is only 10 minutes from Ben's base and we've been told is a nice area, so we're hoping we take his place. The owner is also in the Coast Guard so we're hoping he might given Ben priority on the place. And it's TWO bedrooms so everyone can come visit! :)
That's all the news I have for now.
Until next time, Aloha!
