First day of tryouts!

Laziness will be the last of me... I have no excuses for not blogging over the past couple of weeks.

Today marks the first day of tryouts for badminton. Unlike last year, there was a ton of students trying out for the grade 7 (and essentially 6) team. Unlike last year as well, I had another teacher help coach. It definitely makes coaching a lot easier!

Lots of drills today, with little racket work. Most of them were actually able to keep up with the conditioning today.

I wonder how the 8s will fare tomorrow...

Welcome back deadlifts

My last session at the gym was on Friday, thus meaning I had a longer break than usual with today being the first time back to the gym for me. 

I haven't deadlifted since injuring myself on Feb 12. I managed to do about 8-10 sets of 2 plates and about 3 sets of eccentric plate+10. My injury started to flare up, but it's definitely not as bad as before. And for the first day back... I have to say that I felt I did a decent job!

Parent Teacher Interviews tomorrow...

Leap Year 2016

Life just continues to go on.

I've been busy the past couple of weeks, but also lazy to update my blog at the same time. The same old grind, day after day... but hopefully it'll change very soon!

Weekend was nice and warm; went and learned how to drive stick on Saturday. People are extremely aggressive if you have a student driver sign on top of your car... I never knew going speed limit was a bad thing. It is true that I was accelerating a lot slower than I would normally do so in an automatic, but I don't think blasting your horn behind me will make me move any faster.

Today was chilly, and there was some snow on the ground. There was a traffic jam in front of my school this morning, but it did not take too long to enter the premises of the school.

After school was PD: part 2 of a webinar series. Mostly review from what I learned from university, but it's a nice refreshed.

Onto Tuesday! The beginning of March! This year is whizzing by ever so quickly! Definitely feels faster than last year I have to say.

Baby Blue

Not quite a normal day, but not far from it. It turned out I was busier today than I expected, but things got done!

Just have to wait for Spring now!

And I'm currently working on my short story piece at the moment. It should hopefully be done by next weekend. 

Family Day 2016

Family Day 2016!

Nothing out of the ordinary happened today. Woke up --> went to work out --> went for lunch --> hung out for a while --> came home to enter marks and make notes for tomorrow.

Teacher's Convention was alright this year, but I have to say the amount of free stuff has decreased quite drastically. =(

I swear I also went to sessions as well! There were some interesting key note speeches: discussion on poverty and the use of technology in our ever changing world.

Somehow, it inspires me to finally restart creative writing. Hopefully it'll be a monthly thing that will eventually progress into something biweekly or weekly even.

Teachers Convention Coming Up!

It's been a while, once again. 

Behind in terms of marking, but the next couple of days should give me some time to recuperate. 

Besides work, we had our annual staff appreciation dinner. 

And now off to sleep. -_-

T.>

The last couple of weeks have been rough. So much work, yet I feel so behind! Good thing Teacher's Convention is coming up.

Which reminds me... I registered for a bunch of sessions, but I don't recall what I'm going to...

Better find out soon!

I apologize for the lame posts. There's nothing really going on right now, besides work. I've been at work till around 7 for the last three days (6:30ish today). I don't know how people can work 10-12 hour days in one location...
