Differences

To all of my education peeps, I hope your first day back in the final stretch went well! The next three weeks will fly by! I have an inservice day tomorrow, not sure what it will be about. It is scary to think I only have 10 'teaching' days left. For those who know him, my professor - who made this opportunity possible - Brian Lewthwait is going to be coming up next week to act as my Faculty Adviser. The pressure is on now, or is it fear of disappointing? Both? Either way, I'm really looking forward to him being here. I will have the opportunity to get constructive criticism and advise from a mentor, as well as watch him in action. It's going to be good!

So Easter is all over here. The town goes all out. It seems more like a celebration of spring though than an 'Easter' celebration. I did not hear any talk of easter egg hunts, or candy from any of my students. I was hoping to put up more pics from the weekend, however the internet is slower than Clearwater dialup today...

I thought I would compile a list of some of the other differences I have encountered.

• Feast - Bring your own cutting utensil if you want the country food
• At a feast, country food is frozen and served on the floor
• Kids skating down the street is common
• Bicycles, still common in this weather
• I have not had fast food in a month!
• The only motorized transportation I have used is a skidoo.
• Consumption of processed food is very high - myself included and likely responsible for a few msg induced migraines...
  
• Its 10:30 - I can still see sunset
• Kids don't judge, even in grade 7
  
• Animal skins everywhere
• more to come....
