Update

We have now had almost 200 people look at the house online, but still no calls. We did have one couple come to our open house this weekend, but they were very quiet. We have another open house this weekend, and another realtor is coming on Monday to give us advice. Almost all of the projects are done now, so that's nice, at least.

I am trying to get my NC teaching license. It looks like I am going ot have to take ANOTHER stoopid test. Seriously, I guess I can blame the field I chose, but these stupid tests are never ending: Praxis, GRE, and now ANOTHER Praxis. I'm so over it. This is a really stupid one, where I have to answer three essay questions that are basically lesson plans. Waste of time. Waste of $130. boo.

Don't you also like how you have to pay for each of these tests?

I hope something good happens with the house soon! I know it must be frustrating. I don't look forward to this next year.

Thats about I feel about the stupid VCLA which is basically Praxis I which is basically the SAT. They are charging me three times in five years to make sure I can read, write and do high school math.

Take that Praxis II seriously though... a lot of smart people fail the lesson plan one because they don't put in the "right" words. You really have to do it the way they taught you in your education classes.

when I started working here, VA didn't make you take the praxis I (or VCLA) if you scored high enough on the SAT. that made sense.

I think we all paid enough for school that we shouldn't have to pay for exams in order for us to work in our given field!! North Carolina has gotten about 850$ of my money so I can finally start working!
