Link Crew 2012-13

This year's Link Leader tees.  It's already one of our favorites.  I also participated in this year's Link Leader training during the Tuesday/Wednesday of the week before school started.  Mr. C., Ms. Franco, and I led a smooth training.  Regrettably, I was unable to be at that Friday's Freshmen Orientation.  The word is that it was one of our best!  Way to go Link Crew!

Licensed to Teach

Two of my closest friends got this license plate frame for me from an auto show. I have yet to find anything worthy for this awesome frame. Maybe I'll find a picture of them and frame it with this.

Mr. Yip 8.0

The first month of school in my eighth year as a teacher went by very smoothly.  This year, my assignments are three sections of Algebra 2, one section of Algebra 1, and one section of AP Statistics. There are 36 students in each period.  As in past years, my goals are to be the best teacher that I can be, stay positive, and have a positive influence in my students.

I took a substantial amount of time off.  It was the most eventful summer that I could remember.  During the first month of the summer, I volunteered at the badminton club as an assistant coach for novice players.  The second half of summer, I was blessed with the opportunity to spend time with my aunt and uncle from Hong Kong.  Along with my mom, we took a trip to New York and Boston.  We also visited many local SoCal museums and dining spots.  Later, my cousin who is studying in Vancouver also visited.  With the rest of the family, we visited Santa Barbara, Solvang, the Hearst Castle, and San Francisco.  Other memorial trips included a concept at the Hollywood Bowl and brunch at the Queen Mary.

Time to get back to work.  Bring it.
