Waking up in the city that never sleeps
Published 14 October 2006
Hi! You've stumbled upon a blog post by a guy named Ryan. I'm not that guy anymore, but I've left his posts around because cool URIs don't change and to remind me how much I've learned and grown over time.
Ryan was a well-meaning but naïve and priviledged person. His views don't necessarily represent the views of anyone.
This is just a quick post to brag about being in New York for the long weekend. I needed a break from school and am visiting friend teaching at the Bronx School for Law, Government and Justice.
Let me say I have a new respect for teachers. I sat in on her classes Friday, and was ready for bed before eighth period ended. Her students are adorable monsters. I considered my fourteen- to sixteen-hour work/school days stressful. Ha.
Today will involve some sightseeing, shopping and geocaching. Perhaps I'll be capable of making it past eleven-thirty tonight.
