Daily Outfit: French Conference day 2

Two days down, one to go...







Aren't I a happy little Vegemiter!?

Daily Outfit: French Conference day 1

Just because it's school holidays I get to relax? HA! I signed myself up for a three-day professional development session for French teachers.





Good to see some familiar faces and share resources.

Cacharel

Isn't this packaging for the new Cacharel "Jellies" yummy?



Which flavour to choose: Anais Anais, Amor Amor, Amor Amor Tentation, Noa or Scarlett?

Daily Outfit: Sun Cha

Another gloriously sunny day. Yum cha with friends for lunch then lazy afternoon drinks at the pub. Bliss.





Avert thine eyes! Bare legs!

Cat Scavenger Hunt

I saw three cats on my ride this afternoon.

Satisfactory effort.

Just a Minute in September

Holy Smokes! The calendar's ticked over to October already? The fun Summer season is on its way. YES!


Reading... for pleasure, French dictionaries, student feedback, job vacancies, important emails, my dreams for meaning.

Listening... to the new Arcade Fire, Badly Drawn Boy, my cat meowing, suburbia.

Watching... the clock (at school and at home, late at night), flowers bloom, my transformation into Frida, French play, other bands play at State Championships.

Buying... dinners and drinks!

Wanting... a job! I am so ready. Cheaper air tickets for travel next year. A little extra money in the bank wouldn't hurt either.

Making... homemade gifts, a dent in the pile of books beside my bed, to-do lists, fun of the manfriend, networks.

Loving... so much! Finally we've a bit of sunshine - it was a wet month. My garden smells different - perhaps it's the fertiliser?! Anyway. Flowers and holidays make me happy. I've caught up with friends a bit more lately and have enjoyed their relaxed company. It's good. I feel entirely satisfied with my teaching prac and how much I've grown in confidence. Next step is to find a job but I'm doing everything I can to acheive that.


September, you were great (thanks for the birthday presents). October, you're going to be even better!

Daily Outfit: A Sunny Saturday

Relaxing day cycling around the city with my manfriend.


Hooray for holidays!

Daily Outfit: Follow the Yellow Brick Road

My last day at school (a week ago-yikes!) was Wizard of Oz themed. Funnily enough, my students didn't seem to notice that I was dressed up!


Where's my Toto?
