I have made it to Calgary
As it says, I have made it. I arrived yesterday and began unpacking my life into the new digs. Things are beggining to look good. I still need to get a bookshelf and sort out the teaching materials. Once I have access to my classroom I will have a lot more space to store those as well.
I found the great co-op a mere five blocks away from my building. This will lead to a great weekly walk for my groceries. It also means that I will get a small cheque in February. Right beside the BP’s a block from my place is a fine cigar shop that I will have to check out. Hopefully they can be my new Burlington’s.
I also found a Steeps nearby…where I am currently typing this… The Girls here are very nice and I could easily see myself here often.
As far as the whole teaching thing goes, the website shows that we start in the school on the 27th with the students starting on the 2nd. I am going to swing by there sooner then that as I hope to spread out the prep work over more then three days for my own sanity.
I think this transition is going to be a good thing. I can already picture my routine of teaching, eating, reading, teaing, and piping.
I hope to turn this site into what it was supposed to be soon, but probably not until I have net access in the apt.
