Worthwhile Links
Behind the Name
I always like to have meaning or a purpose behind even trivial elements of my life, which this time included the address for my blog. I searched for what seemed fitting both for me as a person and a future world traveler, as well as the whole point of the blog. So, I finally realized that only one person is truly capable of accomplishing all of this, and that is my buddy Shakespeare, who said in Hamlet:
"What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a god: the beauty of the world, the paragon of animals!"
I consider myself one of these great pieces of work, and all those closest to me, and all those I have yet to meet.

About Me
- Angie C.
- Originally created to chronicle my many adventures in Germany, this blog now follows my tribulations and triumphs of teaching third grade at Oliver Elementary in Clarksdale, Mississippi as part of Teach for America. I hope you will find my tales to be as life-changing as they are for me to experience!

I'm neither, but I'm jealous, too. Due to weather, the office is closing at three today, so I'm going to go home and watch A Room with a View, and get a little taste of Florence for myself. Be safe, have an espresso for me, and have a ball.
