About Me

My photo
I am currently in BEd at Nipissing University. My undergraduate degree was in Recreation and Leisure Studies, concentrating in Community Recreation. I am always up for a challege when it comes to involvement, volunteer work and health, such as fitness. Thanks to my sister Leanne: Education is a major aspect of learning; it is what starts the engine to our futures. People are constantly learning and growing in knowledge and experience. My experience with teaching is changing, still fragile, yet I yearn for an epitome of wisdom, which inspires me to teach primary junior.

MOVED IN!!!

The stress is OVA!! Finally, after staying in a motel for 3 nights and buying food everyday (not good!), I am settled in my room in North Bay. Living with a wonderful couple and their puppy :)

Evidently, I did not bring too much stuff ( as I am a girl who is always prepared haha). You must be thinking..a bed, desk, chair and all the big stuff. Well, everything came in a box. The bed is an air mattress, the chair we had to put together, thanks to Kyle and Leanne, and the desk we put together. Challenging yes, but with four people, anything is possible!

What else can I tell ya...I am now safe and sound and can't wait until school starts. Two more days until the learning begins :)

That's all for now*

Traveling to North Bay

Definitely a crazy start to travelling to North Bay. Waking up to my alarm (BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!) and finishing packing, which I should have completed the night before. This is definitely not like me haha. Getting all packed and the car started, the weather look erie, but the scenery was gorgeous driving on the 400. Tons of construction and traffic at 7:00am, but I could handle it for my first drive of many.

Well you may wonder how long it took me to get to North Bay. It took 4.5 hours, not bad for my first time. My little corolla can take a lot thats for sure (thanks Sohail Ahmed for my little guy). 

Now I am sitting in a motel with Kyle (those of you who don't know who Kyle is, he is my bf of 3 years, wow so crazy!). We are here for a few days before I can move into my house in North Bay. 

A few things we did today..we checked out the amazing waterfront, went on a tandem bike around the waterfront and hung outside enjoying the awesome weather (25 degrees). 

Well friends, its time for me to get ready for another day. Can't wait until my mom and sister make it down tomorrow! More sight seeing and adventures to come :) 

THANK YOU everyone for reading my first blog about my teachers college adventure.
