I am sure you have all been anxiously awaiting details of my cross country trip and updates in life in Portland. I search for jobs incessantly most days, usually take a bike ride and walk around a lot, read, and maybe go to the gym if I am feeling especially energetic.
I had my first job interview in Oregon yesterday and I think I impressed the folks. The one interview I scored and it is with an alternative school for expelled middle and high school students. So I sold all of my working with at-rick youth and severely emotionally disturbed children, refraining to tell them that one of the above caused an injury that I'm still dealing with three years later. I've decided not to take it if they offer it to me, despite my desire to work as a school counselor, and you know, make some freakin money. As much fun as it is to hang out by myself in a new city while most people work, I'm ready.
Last weekend I indulged in the Portland International Beer Festival. Although my favorite beer festival, the Oregon Brewers Festival, starts Thursday, the International Beer fest was surely enjoyable.
I hope to follow this with a series of short posts detailing the trip from Maryland to Oregon. I also plan to post pics from the journey so keep look out
