December 30, 2008 at 9:06 am ( Uncategorized. The weather is certainly atypical and everyone is talking about the peculiarity of this week. For me the peculiar feeling extends beyond to the weather as each time I return to this place I used to call home I expect to feel a sense of sentimental attachment, a torrent of memories, and an overwhelming nostalgia. But this time I feel…. 8220;Vô cảm,” then, means that someone is without feeling, without sensation. I sat for a moment thinking about this...But ...

These lessons have worked really well for me. Give them a try if you think they would work for you too! Let me know if you want the full lesson plans or associated texts and files. Good luck! Debate: Tourism in Your City. This activity was really popular with my third year students (intermediate English level). We spent a total of four periods on this activity and probably could have spent the whole week’s worth of time (5 periods). I began by giving students this scenario:. You are representatives of.

February 6, 2009 at 9:28 pm ( Uncategorized. Applications came in today. I was told application deadline day was crazy. It was going to be a flood, a deluge, a torrent of applications flowing into applications@viaprograms.org. Indeed the programs overall did well, many more applications than last year. Can we blame this on the declining economy? The increased visibility of VIA due to new marketing tactics? A collective answer to Barack Obama’s call to service and sacrifice? Days like today, when I feel c...

Caltrain, Northbound: Palo Alto to 4th and King. January 30, 2009 at 12:48 am ( Uncategorized. But the best thing about Caltrain is the commuters. At Redwood City a middle-aged heavyset white man with gansta rap blasting from his headphones joined the party and sat one seat ahead, between me and the gaggle of giggling college students. I shrunk into my seat and stared out the window with a slight smile on my face at the fascinating and comical scene unfolding before my eyes and ears. And the middle-aged ...

The state I’m in. April 8, 2009 at 9:51 pm ( Uncategorized. California. Ha. Just kidding. So ok, on my way home I was trying to reconcile this statement, which I consider to be true in so many ways, with the altruism, the self-sacrifice, the spirit of community that I see every day (more on that later). And what I started thinking about on the way home was that there. People who don’t only think of their own self-interest. But why? Why do they think of others? It would be an interesting social experiment...
