Everything’s coming up Fuffle. Again, lots of sekrit stuff advancing, but once I can talk about it, I will here. For now, here’s my statement for all my shareholders:
schooling – I’m still considering everything I can, but I’m starting to warm up to the Newton Fellowship. Being able to afford to go to school full time, start teaching after a year, under careful guidance and scrutiny, is starting to sound more and more appealing, despite having to teach for four years in the NYC school system. I guess I can apply, and see what other schools are willing to offer me in the meantime, but I’m worried it will be like a college application situation: once you sign under one program, you cannot switch out ever. I ludge my options, though!
website – I changed the colors. Hopefully more technical improvements soon; I still want more than a blog here….except I’m not not sure what. I think when time free increases, ideas will increase.
writing – I wrote a recommendation letter to a scholarship program for a friend. It’s for a study program in China, concentrating on learning full-on Mandarin Chinese. I tried to be as honest as possible, without coming off like some overfluffed hyperbole that’s standard stuff in the worst of letters of recommendation. Regardless of the challenge of putting a person down on a piece of paper, and making sure to touch everything necessary, it was still an awesome experience.
I wish the screaming would start.
