To Do What Is Right

"I want to do what is right. It is what I would want someone to do for me. You know? This whole thing is based on the Golden Rule. There is nothing better than that. That’s why it doesn’t matter what you do, just how you do it. And it doesn’t matter where you go, just how you get there. In the end, what do we really leave people with? We leave them with moments. We leave them with feelings and times. This is music for us to use to create those times. It’s as big and exciting and pleasurable as w… Continue

Above All...

"ONLY YOU CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN. OUT LAST. WORK HARDER, AND EVEN HARDER. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE WITH THIS DAY? YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE. DON'T BE A WIMP. BE STRONG. HAVE COMPASSION AND UNDERSTANDING. LIFE IS SHORT. DON'T WASTE TIME. NO ONE CAN BRING YOU DOWN EXCEPT YOU. BE INVINCIBLE AND LIFT WEIGHTS. SEE THINGS AS THEY REALLY ARE. GIVE AND DON'T RECIEVE. DON'T TAKE WHAT YOU DON'T NEED. NO EXPECTATIONS BEYOND WHAT YOU CAN DO. EXPECT NOTHING IN RETURN. REMEMBER WHAT OTHERS DON'T HAVE. BE THANKFUL. WHA… Continue

NOW IS THE TIME

"NOW IS THE TIME! We've got to not live in total fear. It's hard right now, but it's just as important as ever! NOW IS THE TIME to make an inventory of everything you love and do it with all your heart! NOW IS THE TIME to really put forth the last ditch efforts and hard work to get it in while you can! NOW IS THE TIME to step forward and not stand back! NOW IS THE TIME to be less of a jerk and more of a friend! NOW IS THE TIME to put other people and other things in front of you! NOW IS THE

In The Past, That Didn't Work

"If you can do something good today, and it makes you and others happy, don't wonder if you can still do it tomorrow, because tomorrow may never come. Don't save up things for later, because later might be too late. There are always a million reasons not to do something. There's always "what if this happens?", or "in the past, that didn't work", or "you won't be able to do that forever". Nothing is forever. Life isn't forever. You only need one reason to do something."

- Andrew W.K.

This Has Never Happened Before

"... work everyday to feel O.K. To truly feel O.K. is to accept everything as such and that you have a place inside of it all. And that place is a miracle, not something small. We can do so much, so easily, so fast. We have so much power, and so much ability. This is so simple and so clear. The future holds everything. In my life I want to feel as good as possible and help as many people as I can to feel the same. I want to do everything and I want to help as many people do everything too.

you can send it to tjblinn@hotmail.com

It will give me an idea on what search parameters to use. In case you haven't tried yet, i always get a lot of choices with the online stuff: workopolis, monster, jobboom...

Now is not the best time but you never know. As for places to stay, do you have something lined up? Here are a few ideas if your looking to move in with someone for cheap.

- http://www.mcgill.ca/classified/housing/

- http://montreal.kijiji.ca/f-housing-room-rental-roommates-W0QQCatIdZ36

http://www.okroommate.com/cities/montreal_quebec.aspx

http://www.places4rent.com/renters/roommates.asp?LOCID=13

and of course, www.craigslist.com
-click on canada cities, then montreal, the apartments.

That's it for now. Let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers.

I don't know where you're from but, it sounds like your not from Quebec. Send me your c.v. and I'll take a look at it. One things I am good at is finding work, but then again I am probably one of the most patient people you'll ever meet.

I am guessing you don't speak much French. While practically this makes little to no difference, you will need to know or sound like you know enough to get through an interview.

Besides that, they are looking for people where I work. It might be something to pay the bills while you await the teaching jobs. I mine as well tell you that to teach in CEGEP's you need a Masters degree. This is a fact though, they may take you on a whim if they are in need or if you have exceptional experiece in the field.

Have you arrived yet? Let me know, maybe we can have a coffee and talk things over.

Bonne Chance.

Cheers,
