So I am now sitting in Edmonton blogging on the couch (literally typing this post with my iPhone).<\/p>\n<p>I often get questions about what I am up to academically and at work. Currently I am reading a book and trying to put together a book review for a journal. I am also working on a paper I am hoping to push out to a journal. Of course this happens in the cracks of time after my day job. Most days it is pretty hard to get motivated to do much after the day job since I am quite frankly exhausted.<\/p>\n<p>My day job is a busy one but it is rewarding as I am working with teachers to improve the teaching practice in their classrooms.<\/p>\n<p>I often wish I had more hours in a day and more time to do finish the projects I have started but I am realizing this is not my reality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I said I would start blogging and apparently I haven&#8217;t been very good at making [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"two_page_speed":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[8,7],"class_list":["post-375","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-k12educatorlife","tag-phdstudentlife"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/melaniewong.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/375","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/melaniewong.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/melaniewong.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/melaniewong.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/melaniewong.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=375"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/melaniewong.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/375\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":377,"href":"https:\/\/melaniewong.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/375\/revisions\/377"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/melaniewong.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=375"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/melaniewong.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=375"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/melaniewong.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=375"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
