Growing up...

Well I decided to get a haicut today. First I thought I'd grow it out until teachers college (so for the next two years) and then cut it short because when I start work I won't have time to fuss around with it in the mornings (and most teachers have short hair anyway). But now I decided that I should cut it now because this year my goal is to get as much teaching practice as possible so I'm hoping to get lots of students to tutor for english, science, bio or chem. And it would be a bit weird wearing pigtails/braids/ponytail while you're teaching because then I'll seem as young as my students! It's bad enough that I'm short and look about 15!
So Mum gave me a haircut. Hopefully now I look a bit older!

After that I met up with Liz and we went to Queensgate. We were going to plan my birthday but then we got sidetracked with other random stuff so we ended up just walking around Queensgate, where we kept bumping into teachers... like Linda's social studies teacher Mrs Guthard! By the way this year Linda has Sr Jo for maths, Mrs Hudson for science, Mrs Davie for english, Mr Kneale for art (he actually remembers me!!! :0 I didn't think he would!), Mrs Guthard for SOS and new teachers for RE, French, Graphics and PE. After having lunch we went over to my house and started watching Annie2 but then Liz had to go home so we decided to finish watching it next time.

Started writing my CV the other day. I was really surprised to find that I have quite a few experiences that are related to teaching! Like I have peer support training-theory and practical experience, tutoring, babysitting, exam supervision, holiday programme leader... But I really want to get more 'teaching ' experience this year! The more I have the better! Will do some advertising posters soon...

I'm also currently working on a painting titled 'life', but it's not yet complete because I keep on wanting to add more things in... will post it up when I finish! :)
