Four Letter Words: Cash Flow
http://aqpsu.blogspot.com/2013/07/cash-flow.html
Men make counterfeit money; in many more cases, money makes counterfeit men. Sydney J. Harris. When I was teaching, I didn't think anything of stopping by YoLo Bakes. Orders correlated pretty well with stress levels. Now, I'm making money again, even if it is only for ten weeks, and I am enjoying a healthy balance of frugality and treatin' myself. I still can't bring myself to buy full-price theatre tickets (as my NYU friend said, "just use some of that SA money and buy normal tix! For example, but I have.

Four Letter Words: Poor Kids
http://aqpsu.blogspot.com/2013/02/poor-kids.html
When you've walked through the door of opportunity, you do not slam it shut behind you. I didn't grow up in rural America. I have never spent any considerable amount of time in rural America. Still, I feel like I can relate a little to the kids in this article: The Web-Deprived Study at McDonald's. Of course, when I was a kid, it wasn't wireless internet people coveted to give their kids a leg up. What was it, then? Honestly, I don't know. Books, cultural opportunities, traveling abroad? Is one of them.

Four Letter Words: Book Year
http://aqpsu.blogspot.com/2014/01/book-year.html
You must be filled with expectancy. You must be awash in hope. You must wonder who will love you, whom you will love next. Kate DiCamillo, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane. I made my brother cry yesterday. By reading a beautiful children's book with him. Books that move you stay with you. It may not have been the first book I cried at, but I still remember reading Lois Lowry's Find a Stranger, Say Goodbye. Recommended by Ed, and We Learn Nothing. I'd also like to update this more. Ha. Up up and aw...

Four Letter Words: Jill
http://aqpsu.blogspot.com/2011/05/jill.html
Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit. If there's one word to describe Jill, it is "resilient." The girl is tough. Yup, you guessed it - hers. By some cosmic magic, we all get along famously and have more in common than meets the eye. Jill is one of those just plain good. Are getting invested in the ACT already. I wish I could get the chance to see her in action in her classroom. Jill is one of those people you want. Posted by A.Q. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Four Letter Words: Post-STEM
http://aqpsu.blogspot.com/2014/02/post-stem.html
Life is an unrepeatable experiment with no control. Tim Kreider, We Learn Nothing. I read this statistic the other day on some promotion for GoldieBlox. Fewer than 3 in 10 graduates in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM fields) are women. And barely 1 in 10 actual engineers are women. Should I be feeling guilty that I self-selected out of STEM? It sometimes worries me that I do not know how to sustain anything, that my past fickleness is not buried in the past at all. I have live...

Four Letter Words: Four More
http://aqpsu.blogspot.com/2012/11/four-more.html
In the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope. I have received at least five e-mails from the Obama campaign in the past two days, urging me to get out the vote and tell friends to get out the vote. Based on everyone and their mother blowing up my news feed, I'd say that the young people I know got out the vote pretty well on their own. I voted around lunchtime and earned my smug little sticker. These speeches need to start soon so that I can finally go to bed.

Four Letter Words: Rita
http://aqpsu.blogspot.com/2011/03/rita.html
Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, "What! I thought I was the only one! We're both Chinese (but we sadly cannot speak Chinese together, as I speak Mandarin, and she speaks Cantonese). We both worked for Teach For America as Campus Campaign Coordinators. We both worked for Teach For America as Operations Coordinators. We both plan to go to law school (me, right after teaching; she, sometime in the future). We both have younger brothers. Despite our similar experiences, Rita...
