In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi @ The Story Siren. I told myself I wouldn't buy any more books until I've read the ones I already have. But alas, I gave into temptation and purchased another book. Only one, and it came highly recommended by, well, just about everyone.. City of Bones by Cassandra Clare...

Tuesday, June 07, 2011 6 Comments
First things first (cause it surely can’t be second. Not sure why, but that reminds me of Alice in Wonderland). Anyway, if you visited my blog before, you’ve probably noticed that I changed my layout. If you’re new, guess what?! I’ve changed my layout!. The previous one I had was only temporary, as I always wanted a more...

Teaser Tuesday #2

Tuesday, June 07, 2011 11 Comments
Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme, hosted by MizB @ Should Be Reading. I've only read the first chapter of this book, so it's hard for me to pick a "teaser" that doesn't have spoilers for me or you. So I'll post something from the opening chapter, that I think some people might be able to realate to. It made me giggle. At...

Cover Crazy was created by Tawni @ The Book Worms.. It allows bloggers to share which cover(s) that they are going crazy over.

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi @ The Story Siren. Really hoping to start reading all these new books soon. In my last IMM I mentioned that my local shopping centre was having a sale on books (All Books $5 Each). When I went back a few weeks later, the sale was still going, so I picked myself up a few...

I.R.L. - Back from Prac

Sunday, June 05, 2011 0 Comments
Wow, the past four weeks have flown by. I've been teaching in a grade 2 classroom as part of my university studies. When I found out what year level I would be teaching in, I was a little nervous as I prefer grade 4/5. But I came to love my mentor teacher and my class, and it would definitely be a year level I'd consider...
