Far From a Stay-cation

Wednesday July 16 2014 6 am

What a week This week has been even wilder than last! I went to Cuba with Kim and her friend for their friend's wedding and I tagged along for the vacation. It turned out great, met a lot of nice people that were part of the wedding party and new people that were at the resort. Let me list them off in order, Michael, Neo, Paul, Sean, and lastly at the airport today, Abdi. Michael was from the UK and is doing his first year of res at Med school and is 25 years old. I was sad that he was 25. He's too young to really want to get serious about anyone. All 25 year olds are like that. Next, Neo was El Salvadoran, has 3 kids, was on vacation with his kids and his divorced wife (don't ask because I have no idea how that makes any sense) and was too sexually aggressive. Crossed him out pretty fast. Next, there was Paul who was an Egyptian-Indian 29 year old who lives in West Toronto. And he is HUGE. He's like the hulk. He had such a sexy body. He travels all over the world for work and works for GE as a chemical engineer. He works in the field of water purification. The first night we went in the pool, talked late into the night on the beach chairs but due to the mosquitoes, I had to call it a night although he was tried to convince me that sleeping outside is what he does. We planned to meet up the next day at my room but he didn't show while I was there, and he didn't call either. So I don't have his contact at all. Then there was Sean. He was a sweet gentleman who for the entire week I thought was married because he was an older guy. The night before we had to leave Cuba, we chatted for a long time outside the disco and in the pool, along with the others. We all got close that last night. Sean and I were one of the last to leave the pool around 3 am. He is in the army as a corporal, I think, I can't remember the title but it's a few ranks higher than a trooper. He works with the other men that were in the wedding party. The following day, the day we had to check out of our hotel, we spent a lot more time together. We sat together on our flight and there was never a moment of silence between us, we talked and talked and talked and walked together at the airport and he helped me when I needed it. He was a true gentleman and he has never been married surprisingly. Well, we traded email addresses and I think we will definitely talk some more. I think he would be a great travel buddy too.

Remind me to tell you about Jake and the period incident.

So Sal introduced me to a guy friend of hers not too long ago. Yesterday we had our first date. We went to a baseball game and then had dinner after. I had such a great time,

Decisions



 
 
A couple of weeks ago, I bought a decision maker from Chapters while with Habs. It was just an impulse buy but best decision I ever made... the decision maker said so.

Things I Forgot to Post


Wednesday May 29
EQAO Week

I reorganized the student desks today into paired rows. It’s working very well. I have a better view on everybody and I can see who’s talking as nobody’s back is facing me.


It’s EQAO week this week so I’m barred from teaching Language to the 6s. With my gr. 6 ESL students, I introduced the African seed game called mancala. They continued to play even after the dismissal bell rang. Things got competitive then! Love my 6s.

It Only Gets Worse

It’s getting hot up in our floor but not as hot as it will be come June. Students are already feeling lightheaded and sick due to the heat but mind you, it’s only been 25-30°C which is nothing. What will they do when the temperature goes up to 40°C?

On another note, in addition to cancelling the party for my core class, I cancelled the debate tournament also. My class has been quite unruly and just difficult to deal with lately. It makes the overall mood of the remaining weeks of the school year an unhappy one. But it’s their loss, not mine. I am determined though to remain as sane and calm as possible from now on for the rest of my career. It’s not worth me developing high blood pressure over a group of students that will eventually leave and be replaced by an equally unruly group of students next year. The student behavior only gets worse every year so I’m not going to lose my mind over it, no way. There are bigger things to worry about in the world like unemployment, cancer, war, violence, poverty, resource sustainability....disrespectful kids? Not something to worry about.

Chris Rock

I had such an awesome dream last night. I was dating Chris Rock and we were at his house, more like a palace really. To get to another room, seemed like we had to take public transportation. His house was huge for just him alone. So there I was, the two of us together and so into each other. At one point, he wanted to take a shower so we walked arms wrapped around each other for what seemed to be a mile, going down the stairs, passing by crowds of admiring people, me loving every moment of it, and entering a room that was spacious but warm. I vaguely remember the rest and other juicy details but the feeling was unquestionable.

What a man

Sunday July 6 2014

You won't begin to believe what the past week was like for me starting last Sunday night. I am seeing someone but in a different light. I really got to know him better and he reminds me of Isaac so much. His name is Tom. I work with him which is what makes all this difficult. We're not supposed to get involved with other employees,... plus he's married, but his marriage has been lifeless for the past ten years and he wants a life with someone else. I'll have to tell you more another time but I will say this as a last thought, I'm falling for him like I fell for Isaac. He has charmed his way into my life.

My Little Boy

Thursday May 8 2014

I had a sweet dream a couple of days ago. I dreamt I had a toddler son who calls me on the phone to ask me to pick him up from the location he was at and also to tell me that his step father or some other close family member was forcing him to call him dad and my son did not like this. At one point he was in my arms and I was carrying him. I loved him.
