We can leave our friends behind...
We can go where we want to...
My time in Maryland is quickly coming to an end. I leave for Michigan in just 3 short days then head out on a 16 hour drive with my mother to Maine on the 13th. This has just go by way to fast, and I know that I am not done with Baltimore. I have been in contact with a school out here that may have some spots opening up in November and are interested in me!
This school is not your typical school, its a private school where students that can not handle public school are sent there. If they can't make it in this school, the next step for some is jail. Its a very intense environment, but one that desperately needs helpful people. I found out about this job from people I worked with this summer. They told me about the job and said that I would be a great fit. The staff is very supportive of each other and there are always at least two teachers in each room. Its something that I really want to do, but it does have a fast burn out rate. This is only if I decide to come back to Baltimore, I may stay in Maine!
The people here have been amazing! I have made some great friends who I know I will keep on contact with no matter where I end up in life. Even though my summer job had its problems, most of the people I worked with made the job that much more fun. If I could figure out how to do this year round, I would! Even though I have only been here for two months, I have set up a network of people who I know I can relay on. I meet a great guy who I have enjoyed spending time with and was able to pass some of my cooking knowledge on to!
The cats have even settled down into Baltimore life. Zipper has spend a few nights out on the streets (and got sick from it!!! But is doing better now) and Elphie has found a love for my room mates black couch....
It will be very sad to leave Baltimore, but exciting to move on to Maine. You never know, Baltimore may get a second chance...
