tesol

thank goodness, tesol is over!

my presentations were ok, caucus is doing well, feet are killing me, i've been up at 5 every morning this week, have talked to several interesting people about work and stuff, the job interview went very well, have seen old friends and teachers, met new friends too, am glad i'm no longer the caucus chair, thought about working for the awards committee now, must write an article for the new tesol journal, will try to get involved with the editorial board of the new tesol journal somehow, will make a reservation for a hotel in seattle for tesol next year asap, am flying home tomorrow, was happy my sister was able to come.

i was very touched that margie came to the last few minutes of my last presentation today to enquire about the job interview yesterday. that was very kind and thoughtful. she's always been wonderful, but something has changed in the last couple of weeks. it feels less like "you can do it, i have faith in you" and more like "i am so proud of you!"

It is that kind of feeling, the sense of pride and satisfaction for the student's spiritual and intellectual achievements, that has sustained the teaching profession since the antiquity.
