It's a rainy rainbowy day in Seattle. I found this isle in the Downtown Target. Who knew zebra was a sweet flavor? I'm applying to graduate schools in New York. I am looking at Manhattanville and New York Teaching Fellows.

I couldn't go the coding route, mom. I'm sorry. I know you love me and want me comfortable, but teaching is my first love. I could never fully give it up.

Warmest wishes this Christmas and here is to the start of a new year!

Love,

Michelle Renee Hoppe
