things have changed for me, and that's OK. i feel the same.

Shyo!

So York has been on strike for 3 weeks now! Wonderful! I've spent this quality time to do a whole bunch of nothing! :)

I've caught up on my TV time by watching lots of morning talkshows! yay! I've also been picking up some awesome recipies! woo-hoo!

I've also finished my TRIBES sessions! My last one was on Tuesday. I am now certified! Woot! LoL. Now if only I was a certified teacher! LoL Stinky TAs.

Yesterday the latest issue of Buffy came out (Finally)! It's been 2 months! But luckily there'll be another one soon. Oooo, next week! Awesome!

This is pretty much just a bunch of ramblings..... and a waste of time. SO I think I'll end it for now!

if you could see me here this way, looking backwards from today; would you do it all again?

So today I had session #3 of TRIBES. One more and then I'm COMPLETE! :)

So, right now it's about 4:25p.m. and I'm up to a whole lot of nothing. The strike is still ongoing and as far as I know (from what I've read) there have still been no negotiation talks. Blah.

On a happier note, I'll be going out with Trevor tonight! :) Yay! Then on Wednesday there's a pub night that my classmates are holding to get us together. I'm thinking about going... But we'll see how I feel :P Then on Thursday I'll be going out for KZ's birthday dinner (His b-day is on Friday). Yum! Somewhere called Sultan's Tent.... Let's hope that the sultan has some yummy food in his tent! :) hehehe

Anyway. That's pretty much it for now. I just feel so tired and blahish. Maybe I'll go take a nap.

i don't want a lot for christmas; there is just one thing i need

so it's day 5 of the strike and both sides are still not talking to each other to sort this debacle out >.<*... Apparently, the word is nothing will be negotiated until Wednesday.... so we'll see if that is correct of not!


In the mean time. Today I spent the day with my mommy as she took the day off. Tomorrow I'll be off to TRIBES workshop #3! After that there'll be 1 more and we'll be DONE! (woo hoo!)


Right now I'm trying to clean up my room a bit.... It's still quite a mess though unfortunately :( oh well.


Last night my daddy and I put up my new light fixture. So now it's definitely much brighter! yay! And since I was bored doing a whole bunch of nothing (cause alan is too busy playing with himself nowadays) I made myself a new desktop display. I was also so bored that I was looking up on the internet for ideas if I were to get a tatoo!! I finally found something that I would definitely consider doing, though it would be pricey cause it'd need some colour going on.... I wouldn't want it big at all and I wouldn't want it to be anywhere too noticable either, which would cause problemos. Anywhozy, here's what I would get! :)

Anyway. I'm gonna go and put my bedsheets in the dryer and then make some apple crisp. So till next time!

Seetahay!!

[which in Somali means:] HELLO!!! With the help of my class (in the picture below) we can see "hello" in many different languages!! This was my first lesson that I had ever did and it is just ONE of my proudest accomplishments!

STRIKE!!!


SO! There's a strike tomorrow... which sucks! I'm not sure how long it's going to go on for, hopefully it won't last long! Starting next week I was going to be in my first practicum block! And now I don't know what will happen to me and my class in regards to graduating.... Let's hope for the best!


In the mean time, I'm sharing with you some pictures of my second proudest accomplishment!


A few of my students working hard! :) On what you may ask....


Their SPIDERS! :)


Aren't they adorable? My favourite is the one at the very back! One of my students made a smiley face! :D


And there they are hanging in all their glory! You can even see part of the ladder I climbed to hang them up!



Here are the rest of them! :)


They were so excited to make these! They made them over 2 days. We painted them on Monday and on Tuesday they gave them their legs and eyes :) They couldn't stop asking me about them; they were so cute!! :)

But anywho. That's enough for now. I'm going to go rest.... Catch up on some sleep while I still can! Nighty night!
