Today some of my colleagues and I went to Kung Fu lessons. My instructor Carol kicked the crap out of us...as usual. By the end of the lesson, my left arm was ready to fall off. I've been having some muscular pain in my shoulder as of late. Probably just a minor rotater cuff injury.
After Kung Fu, I went to my school's English Arts Festival. The kids and volunteer teachers put in a lot of care and work into the production of this year's play The Jungle Book. I was really impressed, especially with the shadow puppet show the art teacher spearheaded. My role this year was helping with the speech competition. Out of the 40 students that competed for the speech cup, a grade 9 girl came out on top. When I saw her speak at the finale earlier today, I was so proud of her. Her English was better than some of my grade 11 and 12's. She used many techniques outlined in my Toastmasters CC manual...without any formal training. Wow.
Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures.
