Finally Some Good News

Although it has only been two days and we know better, we were starting to think our phone wasn’t working. We were feeling pretty good about at least working with the pub crawl possibility. As we were getting lunch ready, the phone rang! We were surprised because the phone never rings. On the other end, it was the secretary from the first school we visited on Monday. She asked us both to be at the school on Friday at 15:00 to 20:00 (3:00 til 8:00) and that we would be teaching lessons! I guess it’s like a performance interview. We’ll keep our fingers crossed, put on our best and brightest smiles and hopefully kill them with our personalities. We’re not exactly sure what it’s going to be like but it’s a start and we’re really excited to even get an audition.

It feels like a massive weight has been lifted off our shoulders and we are finally starting to believe that we can make it here and that people weren’t just b.s’ing us about the job opportunities in Rome. We’ll try not to get too excited at this point because the school could be awful or a million other problems could occur but we’ll definitely be riding high during our pub crawl try out this evening.
