Passionate
Me, probably off on a tangent… So what are the odds of everything going smoothly when I travel to teach? 50-50. Either they will…or they won’t.

Packing
This trip is a little different from my usual. Olds College puts teachers up in their student condos which have kitchens…but no dishes. Since three of my roommates are flying in and I’m driving, I am also bringing cups, cutlery, coffee and tea makings. I will be adding extra blankets because the beds only come…
