I'm a big fan of planners and notebooks, and in fact, I've got a review of one coming soon. I'm such a fan that I even made a digital planner template for Evernote. But times change and Evernote gets stupid, thus, I'm left looking for a new way to get organized. Plus, I've got a few students who could use some organizational help, so it seemed like a good time to create a new planner template. ... Read More

Have you ever had a Christmas that just didn't make sense? Well last year I had my first Christmas not in the UK and instead in Poland. In Poland, Christmas Eve is the day/night of the big meal and Christmas day is a very low key and laid back affair.

Of course, the reason for the season (as they say) didn't change and ... Read More
I have something you never knew you needed. A smash up of the Christmas season along with a renewed experience of the Star Wars franchise with Rogue One.

Clearly we need more of this in our lives! Let me know what you think of Chewbacca's beautiful voice and crystal clear vocals down below. ... Read More
