if i can make it here...

...I'll make it anywhere. Frank Sinatra said so.

And, though sometimes I wonder what happens if I can't make it here I am doing my best to stay positive.

It's almost three months since I first landed in NYC; only now am I beginning to feel a sense of belonging. I don't know if that is above or below the average time it takes to be invested in the city. What I do know is that I am excited (and frightened) to start teaching, I have a good feeling about my high school, I really like my new neighborhood, I love my new roomie, and I LOVE my full-sized bed.

On a separate note...

I'm one of seven contributors to a collaBLOG, Sup Teach?, the brainchild of my friend Mr. G. It's a space for other recent Cal alums (teachers and higher ed folk) to share their adventures in education. Your assignment: check it out.
