In Loving Memory of Julius Koegler

Last nite I recieved the information that my beloved puppy had left us. For all those that knew him, Julie was always an outgoing and loveable pup with big brown puppy-dog eyes and a happy-go-lucky smile that made the people around him happy. I was lucky enough to have Julie a part of my life for 14 years and will cherish every memory. Julius passed away on Tuesday April 13th at the age of 18, while holding Mom's hand and gently smiling, while the snow that he always loved to play in softly fell outside.

We will miss you terribly my Jules; loving you always.

11 days to go...

I can't believe that April has gone by so fast!! Don't get me wrong, I am SO glad that exams are almost over but I haven't even had time to pack yet and we are moving in less than two weeks!
I have kinda mixed feelings about moving outta this house and into the apartment. This house has a lot of memories, both good and bad although I tend to think that the bad out weigh the good, but still a lot has happened here. But it's time to move on and that makes me excited. New times to be had and a brand new place to decorate. Yay! *smile*
Now if I can only find out a way to get my hammock.......

I would first like to say that...I very much dislike Tina!!
Let me explain....

Lynz and I are in this Literacy class this year and working together on a workshop that we have created for a multicultural class. First of all, this turned out not to be a class but a club of 50 students between grade 6 and grade 8. Who has EVER had a club in public school that had that many students involved?! And the teacher who was running this thing was of no help to us..."What is the ratio of boys to girls?" "I don't know" "Do you have anything in particular that you would like us to focus on?" "Nope...we do everything" "What kind of materials can we use?" "I don't know" AAHH!! And Tina was no better! First we planned out this great idea of doing a small mock UN, in groups having the students find out only a few things about a country and then work together to find a solution to a global problem that we would raise. But according to Tina that is enough work for a full semester unit; which granted it could be but it didn't have to be. So instead she wanted us to workshop an assembly with the students and then drop the rest of it on the teacher's lap to finish and preform! I don't think so. I know I wouldn't like it if anyone did that to me so I'm not going to do it to anyone else.
So finally we come up with a workshop that Tina approves. Now it's March break and we can't get a hold of our teacher! Finally, after a week we do and she tells us that she needs a copy of the workshop plan to go over with the principal but everything should be okay. Fine. Nope. When we finally get sick of waiting (and by now starting to freak out cause the end of the term is fast approaching) we call her again and she tells us that she had wanted to call a week and a half ago to say that she is too busy so she is going to pass off the plan to the other teacher that works with the club, a Ms Mackenze. However she has forgotten to do either of these things but she "will do it today and have her call you back before friday" This by the way, was last wednesday that we spoke to her.
Friday comes....no call. Monday comes....no call. So Tuesday Lynz calls the school. "No I'm sorry, Ms Arya doesn't work for us anymore and there is no other teacher that has ever worked with the multicultural club before....we have no one that goes by that name at all." WHAT!!! How does two teachers disappear over a weekend!!! So now we are screwed. We have been keeping Tina well informed for the entire fiasco, but now she tells us that we "should have come to her" and that we "could have done more" to prevent this from happening. Okay...did I miss something? Or did we just get screwed and then told it was our fault it happened!!!
Luckily Amanda is a god and was able to get a hold of a teacher she has worked with previous so we are going in tomorrow morning to present our workshop....and then create a presentation of how it went and what our findings were for 2 oclock the same day for Tina's class. Not to mention a 10+ page booklet that is due that day as well! Did I forget to say that Tina freaked out when we said we were going into another classroom? Yeah...appartently she needs to talk to the teacher first and tell her what we are all about. All she said after that was "do whatever...it's your mark." Ouch.
I can still so see both of us getting screwed by this. This is a core class. If we get even a C- we are kicked out of our program no questions asked. Three years down the drain. And if we try to fight the mark we go to the heads of the Drama Dept...guess who is part of that? Tina. And if we do get kicked out we have to wait a year and then re-audition. Guess who runs those? Tina. Not the prof you want to piss off if you are planning on graduating from DRED.
This is the perfect ending to a perfectly crappy term. I'll be lucky if I get any of my credits this term.

So anyway...wish us luck and I'll write again if Tina doesn't manage to totally kill us tomorrow. Maybe only mostly dead. *S* *sigh*
