our newest home decor improvement..

Since wifey has been gone at TFA training and I am on summer break

 I decided to channel Martha with this wall.

It took a surprisingly long time to make sure the

diamond design was symmetrical.  however..

Japanese tape+mirrors+demilune table+classy pitcher=happy wife

teaching americans

i owe you guys an update on a lot

like china, sedona, and the cruise

but right now i am at teach for america training.

and it. is. awesome!!

there are so many people who share my vision

and want to change the world

and save all the children

and all that jazz

i am so inspired by the energy here and cannot wait to start teaching!

and closing the achievement gap!

p.s. explanation behind the title:
my friend was applying for teach for america
and one of the students she worked with said,

"miss g, good luck teaching americans."

he didn't understand it was teach for america...

how could you not want to teach children who say things like that?!
