How I did it
How to graduate from college
It took me
4 years
It made me
elated

How I did it: College wasn't difficult. That is not to say that it wasn't hard work or challenging--that it did not require me to abandon my comfort zone and explore the world in ways that I never intended. But, it wasn't difficult. The beauty of a liberal arts education is the way in which it frees the mind for exploration and inquiry. Reading a thousand pages a week is not necessarily my idea of fun--especially when the topic at hand is very esoteric… Read how I did it…

become a volunteer tutor
Teaching is Love 18 months ago

Tutoring is fun, perhaps because I enjoy teaching. But I have come to understand that entering into a tutoring situation is not worth it if one approaches it with the mindset that s/he is the only one imparting knowledge. The student/pupil comes to the table with certain understandings, a particular worldview, and a unique background. Most fulfilling about the tutoring experience, for me at least, was learning and enjoying the kids I worked with.

Visit South Africa
A variety of feelings 21 months ago

The country is beautiful, and for the average tourist it will be a great place to visit. For those who wish to place their feet in the ground and stay for awhile, however, feelings will vary. Although the splendor and beauty of the country seems endless, so does the underlying culture of fear and poverty seem without end.

It is worth the visit, for the beauty and for a more complete view of the world and humanity.
