You ever have one thought about the person you are and then listen to other people talk about themselves and then you feel progressively worse and worse about yourself? Ya that slacker thing I have perfected over my many years, ouch. People talking about developing new courses and have taught everywhere and anywhere or people have have gone or are taking their masters, like uhhhh well I graduated from Lakehead andddddd ya happy to be here, wooo *awkward*
Just kidding, sort of...it's good and comforting knowing that you have strong colleagues and co workers, because hey if you are ever in a hard place, there ya go.
You learn a bit, a lot gets refreshed in your mind, the ones here China are a hundred times better than the ones back home, these ones are more active and...maybe it is the department heads, butttttt who knows, it's started with a lot of who are you, these are your new friends, and ya go English department! Well go, ten department lol.
I'm excited to see what comes next, might join the pro-d committee, you can tell the old birds from North America and the young guns who are like really, are we discussing this information that we know? The old birds, always and I mean always have a comment about something someone else says, even if it is that they agree, it's nice don't get me wrong, but trust me, I wouldn't say what in saying if I didn't thinking was right :p just let's get through this please :p then you know who they are because they just complain about nonsensical hibgs, like really? You are bringing up the use of a pen on one of your tests as a good or bad thing discussion? What!? Idk, I can see the frustrations from folks back home about pro-d, here though, it's novel and a whole different psychology of these students, so there is always something new to learn!
Rant over and pro-d day has started...no! I would never have my cellphone out during pro-d! :p
Ciao for now!
