Again, for those wondering about my internship, this is the latest news:

They finally got something for me and called me on Monday late in the afternoon (so this means I spent my firs day of internship in my pj’s at home). The bus system doesn’t seem to be working so well for me, in the afternoon anyways, so my roommate is graciously lending me her car. I hope I can find some kind of ways so I don’t need to drive and spend money for gas when I’ve got my monthly metro-bus pass.

I went to Pointe-Claire for my first day of internship on Tuesday onl to find my CT (cooperating teacher) totally unaware that I was coming. She hadn’t even agreed to take a intern along, there had been some bad communication between university and school board and etc. So I spent the morning sitting in the back of her classroom, feeling a bit bad even though I knew it wasn’t my fault at all. We then spent recess together talking about it all and by the end of the day she told me she had a good feeling about it even though it was not planned.

I am seriously blessed to have this CT. She’s got many years of experience and has had over 34 interns. She’s giving me all kinds of stuff for me to use later on and lending me books and etc. I think we’ll become good friends. Everybody in the school make me feel right at home and they joke with me already.

You can pray that I will be a light there. I’ll be spending all week days there apart for Wednesdays up to December 21. Pray that I can find another means of transportation, driving is quicker and simpler, but still. Thanks.

    This is great that you feel it’s gonna work good between you and the teacher since you’ll be spending a lot of time with her.
    I’ll be praying about all the side details.

    Good news and I’m glad that both of you now seem to ‘get it together’. Where are you teaching anyway?
