So Close...But Yet So Far....

Hello peeps and foxy ladies! Well what has Old Man Robb been up to? Well i just recived my mark back for my Observation Report for my education class and i made an 82%!!! Im very happy at the moment, but again i am not resting on my laurels as now i am onto Chapter Four and it is on Teaching Strategic Readings, more proficent readers use different strategies and they use them in different ways. Reading strategies help improve student performance on tests of comprehension. In other education news i am waiting to hear back about my Lesson Plan class which was a virtual class that was held last Wednesday evening. I think it went well.
Last Wednesday also brought a new addition to the ol Hawley household as my Microsoft headset w/ microphone would not work on Dad's old computer and my old laptop finally went kaput so off to Zellers i went and lo and behold i have a new computer, well laptop..it is a Compaq Laptop with a built in webcam (Old Man Robb's first webcam!) and it is working great...so far so good! Of course i had to try out some Jim Kelly action on it as well...

Of course my Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue arrived today as well...ahh its the most wonderful time of the year...to be a man.... LOL!!

Friday me and ol Blair went to see the Axemen take on St Thomas..another win for the Axemen, however they lost in OT to Moncton on Saturday..now it is wait and see time as they have a bye for the first round of the playoffs and i am supposed to be getting a ticket for Wednesday night's game with their opponent TBA... it was a fun night out in Wolfvegas esp with another trip to the store with no name where we saw this monstrosity of a Lionel Ritchie insert in his "Can't Slow Down" album...i thought it would be cool if this was the pole at the Store Formerly Known as Andrews... of course Blair yelled out like Rick James/ Dave Chapelle "Its a Celebration Bitches!"

And i finally ate at the Mudcreek Bar & Grill and had the Acadia Burger...now not to be confusing but Joe's Food Emporium has the Axemen (And Axette) Sub and the Mudcreek has the Acadia Burger which was damn huge...didn't get a pic (Next time) Blair of course told me to use the loo which had a picture of Leonard Cohen on the door and this over the urnal...

Nothing like going to the john and Gene, Paul, Ace and Peter looking back at ya...Let's Rock n Roll All Nite and Party Every Day!!!!

Oh..Old Man Robb had another teacher offer this week to go back overseas and the school is location in Fukuoka, Japan...well i would have to pay my own way over and there was no offer of reimbursement...besides i am taking my course as of now so that i will not have to go back overseas, which was one of the points to taking my course so that i could have my TESL licence and be able to stay here..however it really does look like a nice place..maybe if i wasn't doing the education thingy, well who knows eh?

So what does Old Man Robb think of the Olympics? Watching some of the torching down at the Capital and it was nice to see Gretzky as the torchbearer...ummmm i have to admit the women's games have not been that exciting, unless your a fan of these crazy scores, undefeated in three games by a score of oh what is it now... 41-2? of course the men's team blew out Norway 8-0...which of course made my co-workers say only 8-0?!?!?! And tonight they have the Swiss...ahh Switzerland...home of cheese, skiing and Krokus...this won't be much of a challenge eh?

Anyways folks that is all for now...got to hit the books, work at 6:00 and then two days off...
