Day 10 - Getting to know me better

I'm finding myself going back to my about page not to repeat myself!  Today's reflection is about the following:

5 random facts about myself
*I have a 3cm scar on my right foot which I got when I was 7years old
*I can play the piano and flute, and have achieved a grade 3 in music theory
*I am quite good at fixing/making things, thanks to my father - when I feel low all I want to do is to go home to do some DIY with my father
*I am exceptionally good at packing things - it's like a game of Tetris which I enjoy playing
*I can't sit still, there is always something that has been done

4 things from my bucket list
This is a little bit difficult as I don't officially have a bucket list but applying the same questions I usually ask my students if they don't know (I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about!) - if you had one what would it be?
*Drink cocktails, one with a small umbrella of course, on an island while enjoying the sun and surf
*Visit Legoland with my son - Lego mad he is!
*Learn to ride a motorbike
*Bake and cake decorate when I'm doing with education when I retire

3 things I hope for this year
*To do well in my university paper - its been 8 years since the last time I studied
*Get the staff in my school more actively involved in staff activities through the social club
*Build my PLN by getting more out there and involved in twitter, etc.

2 things that have made me laugh or cry as an educator
*Laugh - when the children start to truly become themselves and the conversations you have
*Cry - not quite but very emotional, every end of year prize giving, seeing how well all my children have done and the pride in their faces when they receive their awards

1 thing I wish people knew about me
*I love crazy out there ideas - the challenge of it is what attracts me!
