end of august!! @ Tuesday, August 31, 2010
Today is the last day of August, and I'm taking a month leave from my part-time teaching job.I plan to concentrate more on job-hunting in the month of September, while also attending UN University's global seminar, and going on an onsen trip with my mum.
One great thing about my job is that, it didn't make me feel like i was 'working'.
I don't know whether thats a good or a bad thing because I'm actually paid for it, but teaching my students was simply a pleasure. My colleague said my students would definitely want me back, but I will see how job-hunting goes.
By the way, I received the results from Ministry of Defence(Japan) regarding the examination I took earlier this year in June. And I am glad to say that I am...QUALIFIED. But the strange thing is, QUALIFIED is different from ACCEPTED. Let's say there are 10 people who are QUALIFIED, and among them 5 people with the best scores would be ACCEPTED. So apparently, I have to hope and wait for the 5 people to reject the offer.
Anyway, I would still proceed on with my job-hunting because I still don't know whether going to the Ministry of Defence would be the best choice for me. But I'm simply relieved that I've passed the civil exam of Japan, which was said to be specially tough this year because of the recession.
Now I've proven myself that even a overseas-educated student like me could pass a Japanese civil exam.
Here's a mug cup given to me by my student whom I adore so much, Yuka!!!
SHe is a Disney fan, and we talk about Disney almost every week :p
Yuka, I may not be able to teach you again but I'm sure you'll continue to do well because you're such a hardworking girl <3
