Check out the calendar!

So, March will begin tomorrow. I don't have much going on this week, but March is going to be a great month, be sure of it. Right now everyone is curious about Phantom of the Opera tickets, and the Ski/Snowboarding trip.

Phantom tickets are $72.50. This is expensive, but one of the best prices I can get. Check the prices of regular tickets here and check the seating chart here. If you come and pay me this week I can make a reservation for you. The tickets should arrive early next week.

The Ski/Snowboarding trip should be a similar price as last time. I think we will try another location just for fun. I will know the price and place by the end of the week. Please be patient and wait for the advertisements to go up.

One other thing I would like to mention is that I am having a huge party on the 17th of March. This is for 2 reasons.

1 - St. Patrick's Day (a traditional day for drinking and being Irish)
2 - My Birthday! (another great day for drinking)

Please join me. More details are coming soon.

Amazing,

Check out the great video that Thaigo's group put together for communications class! It was an advertisement for a dance studio (fictional). They made a great video, enjoy it here!



Great job guys! See you in Brazil Thiago! Nice dancing Alejandro!

Ok to start, the subways are going to be a little weird this weekend. Check out the video below for more information.



CN Tower Tour Today -

Animation Marathon Canceled -
I guess no one is as geeky as me. Too bad, maybe another time when more geeks are studying at KGIC. :)

OHL Hockey Sunday -
Meet at St. Clair West Subway Station at 1:30 pm. Ed-o will be running things because I have to move to a new apartment. Sorry! I love hockey, but I cannot miss moving my things. ENJOY the game!

Nothing going on tonight, but we do have the CN Tower Tour tomorrow, the Animation Marathon on Saturday, and the OHL Hockey game on Sunday.

The CN Tower Tour is going to be run by Tracy on Friday. I will meet everyone at Yanela's desk at 2:30 on Friday, but Tracy will be the one taking you downtown to the tower!

It's a great weekend, but I might not be able to attend the OHL game on Sunday because I am moving to a new apartment. I am hoping the amazing ED-o will be able to take you to the game. I will update you about the teacher who will be attending.

Also, NO SCHOOL on Friday! It's a professional development day for our teachers so that means you lucky student get to sleep in and relax while your teachers study.

Skating at Harbourfront Tonight!

Hey everyone! Remember meet today after class (2:30) in front of Yanela's desk to join skating. We are going to the Harbourfront Centre to go skating instead of City Hall. The reason being I have some great coupons that will make the price VERY low. The price of a 2 hour rental at Harbourfront is $7. With this coupon you can get 2 for the price of 1. It's a good deal so join us!

I think Ed will be leading the trip because he is a much better skater than I am. Really I am terrible when it comes to skating. Anyhow enjoy yourselves this weekend. I will see you on Monday!

Thursday!!!!!!

The Raptors won last night! Amazing! Apparently that puts them back to a .500 record. It must have been a great game to watch. I hope everyone enjoyed themselves.

Tomorrow we have skating, and look for a special announcement on Friday afternoon during communications class. The announcement will discuss some changes to the listening curriculum, skating on Friday afternoon and the upcoming ski trip.

Talk to you soon!
