Friday - SNOW DAY

Well its always good to hit a Friday, I was suffering extreme TGIF and woke to discover it had snowed over 10 cm and that they had cancelled school buses! Wow! Teachers have to go to their closest school, and kids can stay home! You really have to love this! So last time this happened 1 student turned up, but today I had no students in class! Yay! What a great Friday!

Saturday 21 February

Friday I made the students in my Tourism class try vegemite, man they were funny! Some of them actually liked it and wanted more. I also baked them Anzac biscuits, they totally liked them. I have been making them work really hard and so I gave them a break to catch up. And they were pretty good. Had a funny afternoon with Kelly and John in the office, the staff are sooo funny. John offered my celery in return for all the baking I have done recently, what a horrid consolation. Friday night I hung out with Kelly and drank beer and ate pizza. I drank beer, she had wine!

Saturday Kim picked me up and we headed up to the local ski hill. Kamaskotia is a tiny little hill, with 3 lifts and maybe 12 runs. It was a nice afternoon, we caught up with another teacher, another Kim, and Tom, the guy who took me snow shoeing a few weeks ago. It was a nice, easy going afternoon, no stress. I really enjoyed the hill, won't be buying a season pass in a hurry. Went to a restaurant for dinner, and nearly fell asleep at the table. Off to bed now.

Wednesday 18 February

Last night was marking some papers of my Tourism class on vacation preferences, the last one was so very funny. One of the boys wants to travel to learn a language like German, Japanese or Australian! Too funny!

Wednesday - work, work and an early day. I do lie this place. I have finally organised insuracnce for the car I may very well have by the weekend. Been snowing a lot since yesterday and I am so going snowboarding on the weekend! Its supposed to snow til Saturday. Fun times!

Tuesday 17 Feb

Very exciting we had a fire evacuation today. Someone fired up the fire extinguisher. Dumbies got caught on the video cameras! We all had to stand outside in the snow (yep its snowing today) for 20 minutes. Some of these kids were wearing tshirts! They have the most excruiatingly loud alarm, which guarantees everyone leaves the building very quickly. I still don't have my hearing back! But it has been another interesting day, kids - not soo bad!

Sunday 15 February

I went snow mobiling!! Yeah it was soooo much fun. Amy picked me up in the morning, and I was dressed super warmly, and thank goodness for that! We went to the Kamiskotia Ski hill for a look and a beer. All very good. Then on our way back Amy made me drive a little way, and that was so totally fun!! So I want a snow machine!! Yee ha!

After that Jess came and got me to see "He'sJust Not That Into You" at the cinemas. It was ok, a little stupid, but watchable.

Monday - Its a public holiday here, and I cleaned, marked assigments, and vegetated!! Good times.
