may i brag for a minute more?

1.  Graduation is next week.  Unreal.
2.  My internship has been/continues to be the best experience!  The Children's Center is such a beautiful program.  The administration is dedicated and flexible.  They continue to push the program to be better. The TPS's are motivated. And. Need I even mention how cute the kids are?  If it wasn't illegal, I'd have pictures of every one of my 81 kids on here.  I miss them over the weekend.  I hate to think that May 31st (the last day of my internship) is soon approaching.  I want to adopt each and every one of them.  I may or may not have already looked into how to become a foster parent.  I learn so much from these kids each day I am there.  My 2-4 year old kiddos have witnessed/been a victim of such shocking and horrifying experiences.  If I think about it too long, I have to stop myself from crying.  Needless to say, I love my internship.
3.  I got a job!  My dream job!!  Starting August 15th (yes, I get my summer off! Sort of...), I will be working for Spectrum Academy.  It is a charter school for children with autism.  I CANNOT WAIT.  I had the opportunity to work with a nonverbal young boy with autism at the clinic.  He was my favorite client!  I loved my autism class.  I love everything about working with kids with autism.  Could my life get any better?
4. Enough about me.  Turn off pandora and listen to this right now.  You won't be disappointed.  Gretchen and Georgie's voices were meant for each other.  I have the most talented friends.
5.  George has such a brilliant mind.  Or, as George would say, a "brill-balls 9000" mind.  Not only can he sing like an angel, paint like a master, make me laugh til I cry, BUT he can also design and create the most beautiful clothes.  He has orchestrated a fashion show to display his and Honey Shoe's work on May 11th.  Info is located here.  Here is a little preview of what you will see/what Georgie has accomplished!  He might get mad at me for posting this, but whatevs.
6.  I know I already talked about Luke and his craze-balls musical talent, but whoa!  MATTEO is blowing up the intraweb!  They have been featured in city weekly, several popular blogs, oh...and they were on the front page of this little site called BOINGBOING!!  Whaaaat!  Listen to their amazing Talking Heads cover and go here to support them on their China adventure!!
PEACE.
