Wanted
I am looking for inspirational, preferably short, quotes about thinking, working, math, science, and second language learning for use in my classroom. I've found some good ones but want more! Any ideas? -
Going friends-only
So, because of a few different considerations, I have decided to make this journal friends-only.
There will still be the odd public posting, but they will likely be few and far between.
Please comment to be added.
A friends-only banner will be forthcoming (i.e., when I get around to it). -

Fellow Star Trek nerds may remember Klingons in the Whitehouse! from a few days ago. And, of course, Jon Stewart dedicated a spot to it on last night's episode. Watched it on reruns this afternoon, and it had me laughing like crazy. There were brilliant guest appearances, too. :)

This was by far my best academic term ever. (But it also goes to show that Education courses are damned easy. I now consider a 6-page paper "long".) -

Set my alarms to go off early this morning so I could go to the gym, and I ended up sleeping in! And I've apparently now missed all the buses that would get me to the gym early enough before my class so that I could actually get in a decent workout. Going after classes isn't possible today since I start volunteering at the Aboriginal Centre and I ( Read more... ) -
What have I forgotten?
I am a list person, so it drives me a bit insane when I know I have things to do but I can't remember them long enough to write them down. I have that feeling now that I've forgotten to do something important for tomorrow, or something important in general, but I can't figure out what it is. It's probably something that I have written down and I' ( Read more... ) -

Did anyone else have the unfortunate experience of seeing Fromage 2006? I'm really glad we taped it so we could fast forward through the celebrity trash talk to get to the three minutes of lampooning music videos ( Read more... )
