I find it easier to get back into any routine when I enjoy myself. This is probably one of those posts that will help a bit. Here we go, and in no particular order...
Five Random Facts About Me
- I have a giant red birth mark on the bottom of my right foot. Not a bad spot for one if I do say so myself.
- I am number 13 of 31 grandchildren on my dad's side. Yay for unintended palindromes!
- I don't like spiders at all. I wouldn't even touch pictures of them when I was a kid. I'll put on a brave face for my kids but they are much braver than I am when it comes to creepy crawlies.
- I have never had a broken bone.
- My parents bought me a Walkman on a trip to Montana around the time I was in Grade 2. The first tape they got for me? "Step By Step" by New Kids On The Block. I loved that tape and probably still know more of the lyrics than I would care to admit...
Four Things From My Bucket List
This one is hard so I'm limiting it to destinations...
- Beijing, China
- Tokyo, Japan
- London, England
- Berlin Germany
Three Things I Hope For This Year
- To find that proper balance between career, family, health and fitness, personal recreation
- To stay more organized and clutter free
- To not put myself in a situation where I have a ton of marking to do at the last minute
Two Things That Made Me Laugh Or Cry As A Teacher
- every year I commemorate the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks and it gets me every time
- I can count on one hand the number of times where I've been incapacitated in the classroom due to laughter. This video was one of those times. Dumb, I know, but at the time it just got me.
One Thing I Wish More People Knew About Me
- I don't like confrontation at all. I'm not just talking about arguments... sometimes even bringing up the fact that someone is doing something wrong or that I don't approve of is still incredibly difficult for me. I'm not always so eager to point out infractions as some people might be tempted to think.
There. Enlightening, no?
