Being a Substitute

Yesterday was my first substituting position. It was nice to get paid! Though, what I got paid to do was in fact supervise students on a beautiful day outside as they cleaned up the business district streets with brooms and picked up trash. All the while waving at every car in the hopes of getting a wave or a *honk*.

The simple victories of a middle years student -- good on ya!

I am a Teacher

What a better way to start off my new travel/education blog than a post after our education graduation 2009 dinner "009: Quantum of Knowledge". It's been a very busy and exciting time since my last post for my old computer science related blog The Chalk Dust.

In less than three months from now I'll be leaving Canada to teach mathematics and science abroad for a year in southern China. For now, I start actually getting paid to teach as a substitute teacher. It's all very exciting.

That's all for now.
