Renovacion // Updating

Wao .. hace demasiado tiempo que no me metia a mi blogger .. tantas cosas han pasado .. ya llevo 5 años en Estados Unidos, ya tengo mi primera VISA de trabajo - solo la OPT , pero igual wena - he pasado por un monton de cosas .. desde rendirme y querer devolverme a Chile, hasta quedar sin tener donde vivir. Lo que son las cosas de la vida loko !!!
Contare toda la historia:
Para obtener mi licencia para ser profesora en Massachusetts tuve que dar unos examenes que se llaman MTEL - Massachusetts Tests for the Educator Licensure. Examenes demasiados desafiantes !! El mas facil es Communication & Literacy , este consta de 2 examenes : Writing & Reading. Fue el primero que pase !! Que orgullo !! Luego tuve que dar General Curriculum , consta de todo el curriculum de Elementary School (1ro a 8vo) .. que examen mas terrible !! Lo di casi 3 veces , hasta que hable con la directora de la escuela de educacion de mi universidad y me dijo que podia dar otro : Subject Matter .. asi que di el Español :) Obviamente lo pase !! duh !! Me hubiera pasado si no lo pasaba !! jajajaja !! El 3ro y ultimo es : Foundations of Reading .. un examen de temer !! yo le puse "The Evil Test" OMG !! que me costo pasarlo !! lo di 5 veces !!! al fin lo pase !! que orgullo mas grande !!! Casi me pongo a llorar , de hecho me puse a llorar je je Asi que por fin podre hacer mi practica, aplicar para mi licencia y encontrar un trabajo :) Dios quiera que todo salga bien !!

Whoa .. it's been forever since I signed in my blogger .. loads of things have happened .. I've been in the US for 5 years now , I already have my very 1st work permit - the OPT - loads of things have happened .. since almost quitting and wanting to go back to Chile to being homeless. This is life , right ?
I'll tell part of the story:
In order to obtain mi license to teach in Massachusetts
I had to take a bunch of tests called MTEL - Massachusetts Tests for the Educator Licensure - challenging tests man !! The easiest one is Communication & Literacy which involves 2 subtests : Reading & Writing. It was the 1st I passed !! So proud !! Then I had to take General Curriculum which involves the curriculum for Elementary school (1st to 8th grades) what a terrible test !! I took it about 3 times until I talked to my advisor and she said that I could take a subject matter test so I took Spanish :) Obviously I passed !! It would have been pretty embarrassing if I didn't !! LoL The 3rd and last test was Foundations of Reading .. a test to be afraid of !! I named it "The Evil Test" OMG !! it was so hard !! I took it 5 times until I finally passed !! so proud !! I almost cried , actually , I did cry !! So I finally will be able to do my Practicum, apply to my license & find a job :) God helps !!
