I have made a very profound discovery...it is HARD to maintain/keep up/continue blogging on a regular, steady basis. I am sure that, for those of you who DO check in here, this fact has been more than apparent - it has been flagrantly obvious!
Mea Culpa! Busy-ness gets in the way, it is easy to procrastinate (I'll do it later, tomorrow, next week, etc., etc.), and easier still to justify (wow...not posted in over a month...well...I can wait another day/week/month).
So...here is my post for the month of October (can you believe that November is almost upon us?).
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
There are 2 people (who have written for Among Worlds magazine) to whom I would like to give special mention.
Scott Sutton:
PR News Magazine, an international public relations trade publication, has chosen Scott to be one of their "15-to-Watch Best Young PR Stars" for 2007. This annual honor goes to 15 "rising industry stars under the age of 30." Two of his former professors at UNC Chapel Hill nominated him for the award based on his work "on the clock" with Progress Energy and "off the clock" raising awareness about the crisis in Darfur.
If you are interested, the UNC press release can be found on www.jomc.unc.edu.
Amy Wielkoszewski:
I had never hear of the "Scholar Ship" until Amy told me about it as she was preparing for her position on board the ship. Yes....an actual ship! Amy is a member of the staff, serving as "Intercultural Resident Counselor", working with all the students who are on board for this adventure.

Anyone else out there we should mention on this blog? If so, please let me know!

Hallelujah!! I was waiting for this post for what seemed like EONS Margie!!! I'm impressed by those 2 you mention! Good for them. :-)

You know what's funny? I only check this site every once in a while... and it always happens to be after you've updated it since the last time I checked.
Well...I am humbled that you three have stuck with me!
I will make every attempt to be better/more frequent with my posts!
Thanks!!!
I'm single, living (at least for now) in the country where I grew up, and seriously considering adopting a baby. I just wondered if there are any adult third culture kids out there who are single-parenting adopted TCKs. It's uncharted territory for me and I'd like to hear from someone who's done it.
