No, this isn't the same visit as him dropping the beans off. He just said he dropped in to "see how things are going".

No, I know; I'm thinking maybe he was just working up the courage the first time, or he just took a shine to her and wanted to see her again.
Method of Madness:
Honestly, if I thought I could get a teaching without having to get another degree (I'm finishing up my Masters in December and haven't even offically taught yet, other than as a sub), then there'd really be nothing tying me to the States.
Watched Pot:
madness, i did two and a half years of subbing before getting my first full-time teaching job (summer vacation starts monday, whoo) and I had a good GPA from a respected teaching school, two different teach-abroad experiences, and a bunch of extracurricular possibilities. At the few interviews i got, districts were always honest with me, average of about 500:1 applicant-to-job ratio, and I applied everywhere. The job i have now is at a charter, so i get a punchline instead of a paycheck.

In all honesty, I've had family fight for America.. patriotism runs deep in my family. But over the past decade of events, I'm somewhat ashamed to be an American. I do not like what my government is doing, and it hurts me to see people in other countries make generalizations of Americans based off of what my government does, or what some idiot who makes it onto the media says. Of course I don't have to worry about the people here assuming that we're all the same, but I've seen and heard it in other places.

I live in South Africa and I agree there are a lot of people who hate America, but no educated or rational person has ever made generalisations about Americans based off what the government does. The I know people who make generalisations don't talk about politics much or if they do, they make vague references to Bin Laden being the president of Iraq; it's more of a "WHENEVER THEY COME HERE THEY JUST THINK THERE'S LIONS EVERYWHERE THEY'RE SO FAT" kind of thing. It's because you seem richer/happier than other countries.
