I'm So Indecisive
Do I really want to go to UCLA for graduate school? Is it worth it? Is a Masters Degree really going to help me in my future?

What's Your Image of a Good Teacher?
Is what my friend asked me late last night on AIM while I bitched and moaned about these horrible kids at wonderful Nachi Junior High School. The new school year began early this month and in most Japanese schools that means a new set of teachers and a new set of rules. I know I already mentioned how bad the first years were last year. How bad were ( Read more... ) -

Taken From Alexis :-)
Alexis posted this earlier on her journal. We both had some fun playing with it, so I was wondering what other people would say about me. :-) I will answer about you too.
