What in the world am I going to do with my life now?

So, in the time since my last post, I've managed to become a teaching internship at a DC public charter school, teaching fifth grade English. It's been an amazing internship experience. I will always have wild and nearly unbelievable stories to tell from my time at the school. I've met amazing people, and I've enjoyed my job.

But now I'm back to the drawing board. I didn't get hired for a full time position at my school next year, and the school is doing away with the full-time internship. I could rant and rave about how this country claims to need teachers but then kicks willing and proven teachers out of the classroom, I could blame myself for all the mistakes I made in classroom management, how I didn't come into my own early enough in the school year that I could be full time, I could say I didn't love my students enough, I could say I never meant to teach fifth grade anyway, I could blame the administration of the school for not ever evaluating my performance or understanding how I'd do in the classroom on a daily basis.

But I won't pass any blame. I feel betrayed and hurt by this experience, of course, but I'm in need of changes in my life, so now's as good a time as any to pursue them. I'm feeling generally restless, but I'm not sure where to direct my energy. This begs the question: What in the world am I going to do with my life now?
