Closing the Teach For America Blogging Gap

It’s Closing Time

3 more weeks of college left! And then I’ll be starting a new life in NJ, ushering teenagers towards a path to get to college themselves. So excited about this. But still feeling somewhat somber about having to graduate. This has been the most AMAZING senior year I could’ve asked for. I have officially fallen head over heels in love with my alma mater Duke University. It’s not just the NCAA championship we just won. It’s not just the friends I’ve made that have become my family. It’s not just the countless opportunities this school has afforded me. It’s not just the fact that we beat UNC in basketball TWICE this season. It’s not the fact that Blue Devils are natural-bred winners (and not just basketball but in life). It’s not just any of those things. It’s ALL of those things. Going to miss this place like crazy. But deep down, I know stagnancy never leads to progress so I know it’s time to move on. I’ll hold the tears off until the week of graduation.

Now, I’m trying to not allow senioritis make me get too far behind in life. It’s currently a struggle trying to balance finishing up with my classes, preparing for Institute/other TFA stuff, as well as enjoying the little time I have left. *sigh*. By the grace of God, I’ll make it though.

Currently up on the agenda: Getting my fingerprints taken tonight as part of the FBI clearance I need in order to participate in TFA. This should be somewhat exciting…I guess. lol

Okay. I will try to do better with posting as more and more TFA-related stuff comes my way. Don’t want to turn this into a “senior year chronicles”-type blog. :-D
