Still alive and kickin'

I haven't posted anything in a while, cuz i have been super super busy. I had my first full week of prac teaching last week in a grade 3 class full of iliterate aboriginal children. I'm teaching in the worst suburb in perth, with the lowest literacy rate and lowest socio-economic area....and so far, I love it!!

my first day teaching a lesson was really really rough and I came home in tears, but the days after that were so good!!! I was actually able to teach the kids the concept of repeated addition and they understood it!!!

I'm on my mid semester break right now, and i can hopefully send a better update soon. In the mean time, i just wanted everyone to know that I have changed my photo website. I will now be posting my aussie pics on http://photos.yahoo.com/snewton_82

I went to a 2 day music festival last weekend and saw tons of wicked aussie bands, plus John Mayer, Ben Harper...sooo fun!!! (pics will be up soon)

I had a big end of term party at my house on thursday night and my whole Uni class came and my friend's band played in the living room! i added pics of that, and some from the past few weeks...

hope everyone is doing well! i'm heading over to rottnest island for a couple of days for some relaxation and snorkelling, but hope to add more pics soon!

xoxox cheers!
