I made charr some charr cooked with lime and cumin for my neighbours for supper. Then went for a walk to the airport with Heather Rose before settling in to watch the Senators and Penguins game. I am determined however to get to sleep earlier than the last couple of nights so I will keep this brief.
I grabbed this pic of Louisa and her niece, Nayome (or Naomi?), at the beginning of my walk tonight. She is a former student of mine that graduated last June. She was in secondary one homeroom class with me in my second year up here, so I really saw her all the way through her secondary, and am very proud of her for having worked her way to the end! Louisa is rather quiet but is coming out of her shell more and more every time I see her. Most recently I found out that her and her sister, Nancy, travelled to Alberta to throat sing for a crowd of strangers. I might have never believed shy Louisa would have done that, if someone had asked me the question as a bet when I first met her in Sec. 1. We did have wonderful times together in school. Her class was the one that was responsible for coming up with the "Grudge" movie, which was one of the really fun movie projects that I have ever worked on with students. She played a pretty big speaking role as well in that, and also made the blooper reel, which I think none of us will ever forget without remembering what a great time we had together making that movie!! I am excited to see where life takes Louisa!
