A big step....

Welp.. after much thought and hours of googling.  I think I am going to go for it.... Nope, I am not popping the question.  Rather, I am going to run for a seat on the local community college board of governors. I can't pull the paperwork until June. So from now until then, I'll be meeting with as many people as I can to start building the collition that I'll need to win. After that it'll be fund raising time and before you know it, the general election.  Wish me luck....

What makes a story compelling

Two months ago, I started working for a program affliated with the Cal. 

One of my responsibilities is to help high school seniors craft their Personal Statements for the UC application.  So over the course of the last month, I've read hundreds of personal statements.   Some of the stories these kids tell are completely shocking.  Working at a community college, I thought I had heard of everything. I was wrong.

Yet some of the best personal statements are the ones that just tell the complete story.  Many people try to tell students to put the "bling" in their statements by adding a "dramatic story".  Trust me when I say this, if you have answer the prompt then your story will be compelling within itself.

Just my two cents

Bittersweet

So it finally is about to happen. I am about to leave San Jose City College after 7 years of working there.  I'll miss the friends I've made over the years and it will also be my favorite community college.  But, I 'm ready for the new challenges that ahead in my new job at Berkeley.

I am not sure how I feel.  I know I should be over happy. But I can't feel that I am leaving a place that was very very good to me over the last year.  A place that will only improve over time.  A place that was my home......
