TfA Update!

Soooo I've been invited back to the final interview session for Teach for America, which is quite exciting! I will be involved in a day-long interview that starts at 8 am. It will consist of a group interview, I'll have to teach a lesson, do a one-on-one interview, sit in on a few seminar-like workshops, and do an activity/quiz. I'm nervous but very, VERY excited. If you believe in praying, now would be a great time! You can also cross your fingers.

I don't know just yet when my day-long interview will be taking place, but I will let everyone know for sure when it is once I hear/sign up. (They are taking place October 18th-22nd). Eeep! I'm really, really excited!

The Rose that Grew from Concrete

Did you hear about the rose that grew
from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature's law is wrong it
learned to walk with out having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping it's dreams,
it learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete
when no one else ever cared.
