So, Konami revealed today that Metal Gear Solid V is releasing on Steam September 1 as opposed to the original date of Sept. 15.

I don't think I can accurately articulate how happy and excited I am. Seriously, I don't think a video game has ever had me so excited, I could probably cry right now.

Strange to know that I've been married for a year now.

I am starting to panic.

In order to work at a public school in Puerto Rico, you need to apply at the Dept of Education every year so they can put you in a list, and then they'll begin calling teachers according to that number. If you achieve permanent status in a school, then you are pretty much set and you can do whatever you want because it's very hard to loose that permanency.

I made some really low numbers in 3 different regions (10,11 and 17) but Classes started 2 weeks ago and teachers started 3 weeks ago and I'm still unemployed. I applied for Chemistry registry (my specialization) but apparently there weren't any available spots since most of the chemistry teachers are old people that have been permanent teachers since forever and a half.

I couldn't apply to middle school science until they used up all the turns in that respective registry, and I have been asking about it for weeks. Today I found out that all the registry turns have been used up (also, weeks ago) and they filled (supposedly) every teaching spot in the Public System

So yeah. Panic mode activated.

I'm sorry you are in this time of uncertainty, Guar. I will pray that things turn around for you. I am sure you are a good teacher and someone out there will need you to do just that at their school, soon.

Thanks SK.
My situation hasn't changed at all. There was a call for sciece teaching position, but they wanted someone with a general science certification. (Mine is Chemistry)

I've been trying to find a job at a Private School, but the one with a job offering was a Catholic School. (And I know things won't end well if they found out I'm gay so I didn't even bother applying)

I'm feeling very anxious about all this.

So, I finally got a job. My old school was like 5 minutes away from home. This new one is like 3 minutes away.
I have no idea what group/grade I'm teaching.

I get to act like a responsible adult again. Yay!

Congrats! Hopefully it's not too awful.

Congrats and good luck!

Today was an interesting day. I didn't get to meet the principal, but I learned through the secretary I'll have 2 8th grade groups, 3 7th grades and a 6th grade. I have no books, and I don't have a class room yet.
Even with these issues, the school environment feels quieter and better behaved than my last school.

Here's hoping, friend.

Yeah, hopefully you won't have Bebe's Kids for students this time.

If it was only .1 less... I'd be running on dial up.

I know you be jelly.

This is from my mobile over Wi-Fi while streaming Netflix on my TV and torrenting on my PC.

That was at work. District was forcing updates to every computer we have for a client based monitoring system.

Bottle necked us SUPER hard.

chat room needs the internet equivalent of a defibrillator, because it's dead with no activity.

Mostly because we play games together in a hangout. But I think we can all try to be present there too.

I agree. I've been neglecting it because I have just been going to the gym and coming home and just hanging. I'll be in there more often at night.

Agreed. I've been neglecting the chat too, and Ixz put a ton of work into it!

Greetings from Qatar everyone! How's it hanging?

We miss you, bro!
