Heels.

Starting my placement on November 2nd at Malvern Collegiate Institute. It's some upper-middle class school located at The Beaches. It apparently has the best English program in the city, and it was given some peace prize for practicing global education and diversity within the school. Wikipedia tells me Alex Trebek, Kiefer Sutherland, Keanu reeves, Glen Gould, Don Getty, and Norman Jewison all graduated from Malvern CI.

So, it's fair to say I am pretty excited? If I get a good evaluation and reference here, I will be an extremely lucky girl. I am going to work my ass off. I have already started shopping for my wardrobe (so many pencil skirts, menswear blazers, and pumps). I am so excited to get dressed for "work" everyday. I want to redefine the idea of an English teacher. I want kids to know you can listen to Black Flag and feel disdain towards general society, but still find the merits in high modernist literature (just try to tell me T.S. Eliot didn't loathe the system). But seriously, I want to inspire and be inspired my entire life.

Maybe this shoe finally fits.
