Money is money

I never thought that I would ever even think of being a teachers assistant or graduate student association officer but I guess someone has other plans for me.  Just thinking about applying to be a TA freaks me right out.  Me, teach students how to do something?  That's a scary thought in my mind but I guess i'm going to try and see if I can do it.  I don't have the job yet but am in the process of applying for it and the next step is the interview with a bunch of teachers who make it there purpose to mess with you on many different levels and basically act like that worst students you will ever come across.  We'll see how that goes...  Next, I always made fun of the people who were apart of the GSA.  Now I'm applying to become one of them?  This world is full of irony.  But they both have one thing in common (maybe two).  They both pay you to do the job and since I'm only going to have one class in the fall and none of the other off campus job applications I sent out have contacted me this is what is left for me.  It's better than taking out more money on my student loans (which I hear might be affected by stock market/rating today).  And of course these jobs are good experiences and look somewhat good on resumes I guess.  We shall see how this goes, I'm a little nervous about the whole thing but maybe this is something that I need in order to help me grow in the right direction.  I'm not sure if that makes sense but I'm sticking to it.
