Friday, March 03, 2006What were you doing 10 years ago?
Let's see... I need a calculator for this one... (It's amazing how much you forget when you stop teaching for a few months!) That was 1996. I was... 18 years old and in grade... 12. I believe I was just getting my first taste of French Teaching since I was enrolled in a co-operative education course. I was working part-time as a clerk in the meat/deli/seafood department of a grocery store. I wore large goofy-looking glasses with tinted transitional lenses and didn't realize how much bigger my nose looked just by wearing them. Hindsight, unlike my vision, is 20/20.

Prof de Français, eh? Que c'est cool! J'enseigne toujours aussi, mais ce sont des leçons privés.
