Tagged!

Here are the rules. Four people will be tagged. You have to answer the questions, then post on the person tagged, let them know they are tagged, and then they post the answers. It is always fun to learn more about people!!!


10 Years ago...
In May it will have been ten years since I graduated with my B.A. It is so bizarre to me that it's already been ten years. It was the summer of 1998 that I was waiting to hear whether or not I'd been accepted into the education program, and wondering what in the world I would do if I wasn't accepted.

5 Things On My To Do List Today...(only 5???? ok how 'bout I start when I get home from school)
1-Finish writing out the drama reports for my students.
2-Check over report cards.
3-Prepare a drama lesson for tomorrow.
4-Watch Lost!
5-Cuddle with Ken while watching LOST!

If I were a Billionaire...
Start a charity.
Move near my sister.
Hire a chef.
Travel the world with Ken.


3 Bad Habits...
1-I bite my finger nails.
2-Watching too much t.v.
3-Putting off marking assignments that I don't want to mark until the last minute.

5 Places I've Lived...
1. North York, Ontario
2. Thornhill, Ontario
3. Lethbridge, Alberta
4. Whitby, Ontario
5. Next Year ???

Things Most People Don't Know About Me...
I've had some poetry published and I want to be a children's author - but so does everyone else in the universe! I can't think of anything else. I think I'm an open book. Is there anything that anyone would like to know?


Now to TAG 4 people...

An Inside Look at the Depths of Report Card Hell

Just kidding, there's no exit from Report Card Hell!! This is our lovely hallway in our apartment building. Transglobe recently bought our apartment building and has been putting up all manner of fancy signage, ripping out carpeting, ceiling tiles and wall panelings. They have unfortunately however not yet tackled the massive crater-like hole in the driveway of the parking lot!




















This is the pretty board they put up to show us what the new hallways will look like. Ken and I keep wondering when the rent will go up?!




















The only exit from report card hell is actually finishing your report cards. I am only a few short hours from finishing my first draft of report cards! Yippee!
