Ah I’ve already used that title!

February 2, 2007

I officially booked my first university graduation photo session today. It’s on Tuesday, so of course I had to also book a hair appointment! It’s been 6 months since I last visited a hair salon. Unfortunately my regular hair dresser is on vacation so I have a mystery cutter on Monday. I hope all turns [...]

Career move #2….check

January 25, 2007

Wow, after 7 months of avoiding kids with dirty hands, and nasty sneezes, my efforts to avoid getting sick have finally failed! Of course, it fails on probably the most important day not to be sick during the entire pregnancy (except maybe delivery day). This afternoon I had my first job interview as a newly [...]

The true final exam

January 18, 2007

Wow, I officially booked a time for my first job interview as a teacher. It is next Thursday at 3pm…eek. I feel quite nervous about it since it’s probably the first interview that I really need to take seriously. Part of me says that it will be fine, I know my stuff and I’ve got [...]

It’s all done!

December 21, 2006

Wow, I’ve just gotten home from my last day as an unpaid teacher! YAHOO…pay cheques here I come! It was a bittersweet day today. The kids seemed genuinely upset that I wouldn’t be back, even some of the most introverted kids were showing sadness. I think I held it together pretty good though, just a [...]

Have I mentioned that I hate titles!?

December 19, 2006

Wow, this week is half finished for me, already! I can’t believe how fast this semester has passed. Of course in mid-October I wouldn’t have agreed. I am feeling so much more confident about teaching, and I’m ready to start teaching on my own. The staff at school today held a semi-surprise luncheon for us [...]

It’s over.

December 8, 2006

I’ve survived the final requirement for my degree! The exit interview is over and I officially survived the programme! The interview went really well actually. I had three interviewer’s and one of them was my previous practicum supervisor. I REALLY lucked out on that one. The questions were as expected, and a couple of easy [...]

Exit Interview Day

December 8, 2006

Well, I have an hour before I’m supposed to prove to the University that I’m ready to be set free and teach. I’m not as nervous about this interview as I kinda was before. I think it’s because yesterday, my fellow student teachers at school and I sat down and went through the questions. What [...]
