And the story begins.

Never a dull moment... 

Hadn't even left home-soil and there is a story to be told.... I almost didn't make my flight because of a miss understanding regarding ESTA requirements for entry into the United States. It was a kind man (with a heck-of-alot-of power, at least, at Sydney International Airport that made my journey possible. This man, lets call him Billy, was and will always be remembered as 'The Man'. My life saver. The Man. assisted me with applying for a ESTA, with only minutes to spare before my flight (FJ0910) was closing. Then raced me through security checkpoint, customs and finally to the boarding gate. Without his speedy antics and incredible customer service, I would have missed my flight and therefore disrupted the beginning of my entire trip.

In the end, The Man. made the first haul of my trip most memorable. I hope the ground staff and also inflight staff, are able to mirror his enthusiasm for quality and satisfying customer service, to ensure all customers enjoy the same experience. 

Thankyou, again. The Man. My Life saver.

Happy Tears for new beginnings.

... They better be haPpy tears! I told my students.

It was hard stepping into the role of a full time Year 3 teacher, but after a term with my little rockstars it was even harder to say goodbye. Being a classroom teacher, is HARD work! but the work was quickly shadowed by amazing memories created, exceeding high expectations and the over all buzz in the classroom. 
To be fair, a day never past without having learnt something myself. Similarly, my rockstars learnt so much and were keen-beans to share with me all the wonderful, yet sometimes whacky teachings shared, daily.

And so, as I jet off, yet again, the world will soon become my classroom. A place (or many places, actually) that will provide me with opportunities to Share. to Learn. & to Know about many wonderful and whacky things...

Luv T.

 
Just a few of many love letters... 

 
.."Sorry you're leaving" notes and goodies! Such an impact in such little time! I might have left the classroom, but my rockstars will never leave my heart... There forever! :)

                                                     We loved having Crunch n' Sip... 
                                   So we decided to have our own juice bar and juice our crunch. 


 
Isagenix goodness, keeping me cleansed and balanced during every (busy) school day!... Ps: they loved drinking it too..
