Elena, this is a good link for general information about teaching in Canada, qualifications, etc.

It seems, from my friends who are teachers that the easiest places to get hired are private schools and remote places that have trouble attracting staff. (But those remote posts are often very challenging.) Everyone I know in education started their first position either in one of those situations or as a substitute.
My neighbor worked last year (as a school pschologist) in two 50% positions, which were themselves shared between different schools. I think she was at least two different schools every day.
It's not a particularly new piercing. I had it done in February. It's just infected for no reason I can think of.
were you wearing new earrings? you might be allergic to them or they might have irritated your ears.
Megan, I just saw that, thanks for posting.
You're welcome. It's nice to use my knowledge outside of work.
Did you guys hear the rain last night? Whew! It cooled things done for a bit, but now it seems muggy.
The MTT building was completely obliterated by fog last night, and then the rain pelted down. Your right though, it just made the heat wetter.
Did you see that Space is going to be running Firefly in its ENTIRETY in PROPER ORDER starting Sept 8th?
YAY! Must tape this time around.
Oh, crap - Megan, is it this Friday that Farscape starts fresh? At 10?
Yes, and it repeats on Saturday at 3:00.

When was that? It poured jsut as we were leaving for the Marquee, and I didn't notice any more rain when I got home at one, or when I was up at 5, 6 or 7...then I forgot to turn my alarm back on and slept in until 8:05.

Whooo!!!!
Just to repeat WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Hey Sue, is the office struck by election madness or has everyone stopped working altogether since it could all be in vain?
I haven't noticed any. But I am just sitting quietly in my cubicle.
I'm going to start taping Farscape, then. And, of course, Firefly. Though the DVDs should be out in November. I'm hoping. And wishing.
I'm wearing the same earrings I have been since May, and they're silver, so that shouldn't be a problem. It may have something to do with the copious amounts of cat drool that run into my ear on a regular basis.
Sue, it was raining at - oh, 9:30-10. Very hard.
We were at my friend's then. Laughing about how we were drinking caffeinated tea after 9 and feeling wild for doing so.
Sue, The Village People will be here - damn, I made a point of noticing this... I think that 1st and 2nd of August. Tickets are $19.
