I Want to Be a Teacher

Here it comes, my second round of grad school applications.  Tonight, in approximately six hours, I am going to press a "Submit Application" button on the computer screen and be one major step closer to becoming a Lewis and Clark graduate student in seven months.

This round feels different than the first one.  It feels more immanent.  My essays feel as if there is something real about them, a genuine authenticity that was strangely lacking when I applied to be a graduate-level fiction writer.   

Back to work.  Back to my little Jewish children.  And then (hopefully), back to school in June.
