Steve: The Album

To much of the annoyance of everyone, and if you know me it happend A LOT, I have this awesome habit of replacing the word 'me' in certain songs and replace it with my name "Steve". I decided, hey, why not make an album! Here is a begining song list:

"It's Gonna Be Steve" (N'SYNC cover)
"You Belong With Steve" (Taylor Swift cover)
"Steve Against The Music (Britney cover)
"Follow Steve" (Uncle Kracker cover)
"Without Steve" (Eminem cover)

Bonus Track:

"Imma Steve" (Black Eyed Peas cover)

Any others you wanna see done? Let me know! :)

Having a "I got outta bed for this!" day

To start things off, I was sick as a dog yesterday. For those who know me, I never get sick and when I do I just want to be left alone. On top of being sick, I called out of class (which I NEVER do) and trivia (which I NEVER EVER do) and used the day to get myself back into normal health as today I had 4 different opportunities lined up for Student Teaching for Fall 2010, which is a requirement for my Master's.

So today, I get up bright and early to the sun (yeah sun was there for a bit today...) and try to shake the last few remnants of sick away. They were still there but had to put them in check because it was a very important day! I check my email to find out that the I didn't need to go to my first student teaching interview at (random school in Cambridge) as they had enough people show up yesterday that they didn't need me. Ok, that's fine. Three more to go.

Around lunch I went to (Boston High School) for a job interview. I got a tour of the school and chatted with the administrator giving me a tour. Seems like a good lead but at the moment they are looking for teachers and not sure if the position will accommodate my student teaching....but still it's some kind of lead.

Checking my phone again to see what time the next appointment was, I got a rather nice email from the person I was supposed to meet for the fourth appointment saying he had to reschedule...so not a big deal.

Now my third interview I had been looking forward to for months. The school is right near my house and I actually know people who have gone to that school before (my brother included) so I was anticipating it. Not only was it excellent for student teaching, the also offer a stipend! I know they say not to put all your eggs in one basket, I had a really good feeling about this!!!!

The email I received said this:

Hi everyone,

SOME PERSON just shared a great news with me. ELEMENTARY SCHOOL in BOSTON is offering paid internships for the next school year. You can go to the BPS website and get the school info. I am not sure how much they plan to pay the interns next year, but the interns this year receive $7,500. If you are interested, please attend the Open House at the SCHOOL on Wed, April 28, 3:00-4:00pm. Bring your resume. You will have the opportunity to meet with the principal and teachers. Interviews would be scheduled afterward.


I arrive at the school...Open House was yesterday...
