One square meal today, and it was ropa vieja y jugo de piña a Cuban place on Broadway. I enjoyed it very much, and it saved me from snacking and caffeinating my way through these very long days of class. I actually felt great all day--though I was very, very sleepy after consuming so much deliciosity in the late afternoon.Today was the last day of classes. Sigh.
Tomorrow we have a much anticipated final exam, and then we are done for the summer. We have been grinding this out all month; I'm not sure any of us have the presence of mind to do much more than just show up, test, toast one another, and then disperse. Me, I'm all about the intentional community aspect of cohorts, groups, teams, etc., etc. I have to keep reminding myself though that this is not my baby. These are my beloved new colleagues, and we have plenty of time to grow and work together. It is not on me to build the community. It's bastante for me to participate. Funny how sometimes holding back is a marker for growth. We are each one of us so wonderfully quirky, present company exemplified.
