Bus People

January 31, 2010

I like to watch people. I remember when I did my undergrad program I would take the bus at the same time every week so I would be on the bus with many of the same people. The more I saw the same people, the more I learned about them and their habits. I would start to make up stories about them. I would give them a name based on their characteristics like “briefcase man”. The part I enjoyed the most was when I found a cute guy who would be on the bus with me. I would try...

Productive Week

January 28, 2010

This has been a pretty productive week for me. I’ve been able to do some teaching for the first time since probably November. My goal is to teach at least two days a week in order for me to be happy with my pay check. This week I was able to work a full day on Monday and a half day on Tuesday. I am also booked to work another full day on Friday. The only thing I can think of that will stop me from working tomorrow is snow. I heard that we’re supposed to get 10cm of...

Forum

January 18, 2010

I might still have one spot open in the SOTF contest which will begin on Monday February 1st. It’s possible this person won’t be able to play until March. If you are interested, please visit the page and enter the contest! In other news, I recently joined a new forum. It’s been a while since I was a member at a forum. It’s called Tell You Why MB. It’s currently just me and two other people who are members, which is part of the reason why I joined. I like it when the message board isn’t too busy. But...

SOTF

January 8, 2010

Some of you may remember a contest that I have on my website called Survival of the Fittest contest. It’s similar to a SOTM contest. It starts with five websites competing. Each week people vote for their favorite website and at the end of each week the website with the least amount of votes is eliminated until there is only one website remaining. The winning website gets free advertising on my website for one month and their site button will remain on the SOTF contest page for as long as I own my website. If you don’t already have...

The Year 2010

January 7, 2010

I can’t believe that it is the year twenty-ten. It sounds so futuristic. I thought it might be fun to predict some of the things I think will happen in my life in 2010. I think I will find some more teaching jobs during the next few months. So far this year subbing has been really slow for me. I predict that it will pick up and I will start making money. If that happens I predict that I will have my loans half paid off by this time next year. Something else that will happen is that I...

Online Friends

January 5, 2010

Last time we spoke I talked about online friends and how they can touch your lives. Today I want to talk about one friend in particular. He was the only person I have talked to online that I had romantic feelings for, not that I ever told him that. When I was in grade 12 (about 7 years ago) we used to talk on MSN all of the time. I always enjoyed our silly conversations. I feel like our personalities were very compatible. Everything went sour when I told him that I asked someone to go to prom with...
