Kelowna needs me&#8211;seriously&#8211;there are not enough teachers and no kid&#8217;s classes. I tried out a new class last night. I am ready to dance, I just need to know my songs.

Will work hard to get ready and put myself up and available to teach on the Zumba website.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0Not turned off academia just yet. I&#8217;m leaning towards a PhD. I would love to teach at a Uni&#8211;I like teaching, writing and research. Trust me, the jobs available to me now are non existent. \u00a0I may write that paper with the UBCO prof once I am finished my thesis.<br \/>Oh, and I am presenting at the international conference on eLearning in June&#8211;looking forward to that.<br \/>\u00a0Finishing the last of my thesis revisions: just need to define my term page and edit an entire Hippoworth story for the appendices.<\/p>\n<p>My daily practice of \u00a0<i>equanimity<\/i>\u00a0helps keep me focused.
