I have a chance of being hired for a summer position at my former language school where I took French classes. Apparently they are keen on hiring anglophones as teachers even if they aren't certified in teaching English. I think I have a good chance of being hired at least for the summer because I have some experience teaching. I have a friend who worked there as well and she said that they would definitely hire me and according to her, they pay well! I have all of July with absoluetly nothing to do so I pray that I get this job!
In other news, I'm heading to Paris tomorrow to pick up my Certificat de Coutume in order to be Pacsed. Yes it's official! We'll be PACSed on June 12th! I can't wait. I don't know if we are going to have some kind of party or something. We talked about getting some champagne coupes in a bar possibly.
Everything seems to be falling into place. I was soo stressed before about what to do for the future. I didn't know where to live or what to do with my life. As long as I find a decent job for the fall, I'll be satisfied and I won't be too disapointed that we can't go to Paris right away. I know that I don't want to teach English forever, but I think that if I teach adults then I'll be much happier and I'll feel challenged. Plus, I won't have to be acting as "la police" everday in class. That's a French expression they use for disciplining and yelling at the students during class. I think it's pretty accurate.

Yay! I can definitely say that adults are way better to teach. Hopefully it works out for you!
I hope so too, thanks Andromeda!
Ohh, I'll be crossing my fingers for you too!
Oooh that would be fantastic! That is what Im hoping to be able to do in Toulouse in September, fingers crossed! But before all that, I need to learn French! :-) Good luck with your endeavours and it really does sound like everything is working out for you. Life always does somehow!
Thanks everyone!
parlezvouskiwi- yes learning french is a MUST but you'll learn over time. I'm sure that you'll get your job in Toulouse!
