    The Musicological Journey Through the Twelve Days of Christmas*

    (Take a second and vote on my poll please! :) —>) A while back I used to post “songs of the week”. It was when I was still fairly new to blogging and hadn’t figured out all the tricks yet, so I could only post the song title and hope you might find it and have a listen. After a while I just stopped as I wasn’t sure anyone was even interested. Well, it’s the end of November and there is some snow on the ground, so guess what I’ve been listening to?? YUP. Christmas music!!!!!!! And today I am going to share one of my most favourite Christmas songs…

    Dr. Eva Olsson*

    …surprise! I know, I know… after all that hassle I ended up back where I started, but I figure until I absolutely HAVE to start using the private blog I’m going to just continue to use this one. It’s much easy for me to use, and much easier for you to access! So, until further notice.. I’ll be here. :) AND, I’ll be writing more often!

This past Friday evening the Hubster and I had the opportunity…

It has been an extremely controversial topic and with the election this week those in favor of Proposition 8 narrowly won. Okay. I’ll be honest here—I was shocked. I honestly didn’t think that this amendment had a shot in heck at winning. I’m all for equality, but I definitely see the arguments for both sides of this thing. The main premise behind…

  • Teaching*

    My Class is TOO Big, I Can’t Handle It!!

    Somehow I’ve already completed two weeks of my placement. I cannot believe how quickly the time is passing—in no time at all I’ll stop being the teacher and become the student again. *sigh* How many sleeps until May? So, my first week was AMAZING. Seriously. I officially and completely love this profession! My nerves completely dissolved by Wednesday, and my associate teacher even commented to me that he often forgets that I’m just a student teacher. (HOORAY!!!) That really meant a lot as he’s not the type of person to give undue praise—when he doesn’t like something he’s quite vocal about it. This week I focused a mini-unit on popular…
