WHAT THE HELL WHO RINGS ME AT 9 ON A SUNDAY NIGHT TO ASK ME TO AN INTERVIEW?

In York. On Tuesday morning. To teach a FIFTY FIVE MINUTE LESSON. Not a short lesson, not something simple, oh no. FIFTY FIVE MINUTES with A/B grade year ten students on a poem of my choice what what I don't know if I have time to even PLAN for this, and I have to plan cover work, and and and WHAT. I SO WANT TO WORK IN YORK BUT THIS IS TERRIFYING!!!

I know you're stressed but that also sounds really fantastic.

That is a really long sample lesson to have to plan at short notice. But, from what I've read in your journal over the last months I'm more than sure you will excel. Good luck. :)

Wow, who works on a Sunday?? They have very dedicated people there obviously.

Good luck! *crosses everything for you*

That is bad etiquette on the part of the interviewers. *frowns at them disapprovingly*

Good luck if you go for it, though!

If you need some poetic inspiration, I've got tags for poetry month (http://winkingstar.livejournal.com/tag/poetry+month) (in which I post a favourite poem for every day of April, so it's kind of a lot to wade through since it's got 4 Aprils worth of poems now), poetry (http://winkingstar.livejournal.com/tag/poetry) (for when I post random poems I like during the rest of the year, which includes some of my own stuff), and stuff what I've written (http://winkingstar.livejournal.com/tag/writing:+by+me). I'm particularly smitten by the Moldovian national anthem (http://winkingstar.livejournal.com/122946.html) (which you can use to talk about all the wondrous things language provides), and I'm also enamoured of Edna St. Vincent Millay and I've got two recordings of her reading her poetry here (http://winkingstar.livejournal.com/146977.html) if that'd be something interesting for a lesson.

Obviously I'm a poetry nut, so I'm happy to help out if you need anything else, but I'm afraid the time difference would likely get in the way since I have to work allllllll day tomorrow. I'm around tonight, though. :)
