The evolving set of documents entitled my eJournal and images change in focus from day to day. You might think that I'd look to a blank screen with trepidation seeing how I do this on a daily basis. In fact, generally, I'm quite happy I have a chance to share an idea, opinion, or personal experience. Just realizing my damned fortitude makes me proud. I have kept this up for five and a half years whilst most personal blogs have fallen by the wayside.Keeping this going really has become part of a routine and it doesn't seem like a struggle at all. After all, you'll rarely find wordy tomes that have required much planning. I find I can always find something to post. For example, yesterday I added to facebook an old colleague from my days at Dubai Men's College of the Higher Colleges of Technology. Perhaps because of this, I was thinking of my five years of teaching in the United Arab Emirates. I am happy that I once had the idea of scanning documents. Once in electronic format, they can be easily stored and shared.
If you click the little image, you'll open a PDF image of a student publication I spearheaded for my Foundations program English students. I think they were put together in Microsoft Publisher format. I may have the current version of that program on the hard drive of this computer, but I have never even opened it. Paper seems less important nowadays. Before web pages, photocopying was necessary if one wanted to share words with others. We must have burned through a lot of paper on these projects.
