Phew...

Kim got into the Elementary Education Program on Tuesday and I got into the Secondary Education Program on Wednesday. We are going to be teachers for realsies!!  I have to admit that I may have given myself an ulcer waiting that 24 hours, it was nerve-wracking. I am really proud of us! Yay for teaching!!!

Done like dinner!

I handed in my final undergrad paper today and it felt great! When I stopped and talked to my Proff for a little while she seemed disappointed that I was going into education and not carrying on with anthropology or development in some way. I'm not sure that I will ever fully stop being a student there is something about the process of learning and discussing ideas that really engages me. Perhaps one day in the distant future I will do my masters in that area.

I also voted today and while I was waiting to register no less than four of my friends from the theatre department arrived to do their voting. The last time I voted it was very quiet and the only other voters all had grey hair. This time the place was fairly busy with a steady flow of people coming in and they were all ages. I think it is exciting to see so many people caught up in the election perhaps there will be a positive change.

Kim got her passport pictures done today! And she is currently deciphering the paperwork to apply for her new passport. This reminds me I need to go and get pictures done for my Visas.

Hey There Hi There Ho There Neighbor

On Friday night Kim and I went to our last Theatre student party. We had an amazing evening celebrating the end of year with the fantastic cast of characters we have come to know and love/hate. It is bittersweet, the realization that our undergrad degrees have come to an end and that we won't be a part of what goes on at the theatre anymore.

 I will miss the people, all of them, that I have come to know over the past few years. I will miss the events; the gong show, the silly movie nights, and productions. I am also excited about the future, about next year. I hope to get into the education program but if I don't I will probably travel and teach ESL, either option is pleasing.

Kim might become a travelling underpants salesperson.

Anyway the reason I brought up the theatre party, aside from the nostalgia I am already beginning to feel, is because many people at the party mentioned they had been reading this blog. Many people reading this blog about our travels, and Kim's underpants ha ha ha. So welcome everybody and I hope we give you something interesting to read.
