My life is hitting a point where I need to get myself together and pull it through. I'm in my mid 30's and need to bring bread on the table. Although My lovely wife is pursuing her Ph.D, it's not going to be enough. To give Irma and her future sibling's best education and life, I need to start being a real Dad. 

So this is going to be one of my new years resolution for 2012. From now on, as much time I will have, I'll be posting my time line on everyday activity on my twitter. Hash tag will be #Jleelife and you guys are more than welcome to help me get through my life, or not. lol

This way will help me understand how much time I will be wasting on daily, weekly basis and what I can improve to manage time better.  It also will give me motivation, hopefully intrinsic!!, and make me more focus on my task everyday. 

So I'll keep you guys posted and see how things will go!

Wish me luck!

So i'm back to my ordinary life, back from Chicago, the windy city and from the great NCTE (National Council of Teachers of English). It was a very short 2 day trip, basically get in and then get out version. 

My flight was from State College to Philly and then to Chicago. Why can't State College make a non-stop flight to Chicago?

The Chicago airport was beautiful, didn't have too much time to take pictures of the airport cause the transaction time was less than an hour. 

 

 

When I got to my hotel, found out that the 'actual' conference wasn't at the hotel that I was staying, but it was about a 15 min walk to a different hotel. The walk was very nice, and very windy at the same time.

 
이날 생각보다 많이 추웠다. -_-;; 역시 시카고라 바람이빠이 부는 그런 날씨였던 기억이..-ㅅ-

So when I got the conference center I got my booklet, met my colleagues and had some dinner and went back to my hotel, when over my presentation and went to bed. 

 
아쌀..=ㅅ= 나 발표한다고 이름이 제일 밑에 딱!

The hotel lobby was so nice, took a really quick vid, right before everyone was staring at me lol. 



The next day, got up early (my presentation was at 10:40am and was meeting everyone at 10:30. It's a 15 min walk and wanted to look good also :)

 
컨디션 만빵이였다..=ㅅ= 사실 좀 피곤하다고 느꼈지만 직접 표정을 보아하니 이건 뭐 발표준비는 제대로 끝난듯 ㅋㅋ

 

호텔내려가면서 찍은 사진, 저기 기둥은 우편을 넣으면 쓩하고 내려가서 우체통 역할을 하는거랜다...
미국에 10년넘게 잇었지만 저런거 모르니...이건 미국 시골총각의 병폐인가..ㅠ_ㅠ



가는길에 우연찮게 발견한 베니건스..ㅠ_ㅠ 우리동네에도 좀...

 On the way to the conference, the weather was really nice, the sun was out and so good to walk. 
Went passed the Roosevelt university and a park (would never remember the name lol) 

 
  And finally the panel, it was great, we were in a room that would hold around 200 ppl, and to be honest we got around 150 to come!!

The days of games being a minority in education seems to be fading away :)

 And finally here's my presentation vid. plz ask any questions about it if you need to.
