I took all my figure classes from him too. (I should clarify -- all two of them.) And I LOVED him, as a teacher and as a person. Very inspiring. <br /><br />He wrote one of my letters of recommendation that got me the scholarship to Cambridge.

Scary, but also funny.<br /><br />After CPod graduated from . . . school, he had no license to practice . . . his profession, and we had a little student loans left over to burn (which, I guess, means we just finished paying for the trip, right?). So he Pricelined some plane tickets for $300 a piece (this was just a few months after Sept. 11) and voila! We spent three weeks sleeping on trains all over Europe. The trip was great, the the thing I won't repeat? Sleeping on the train. I am grown up enough now that I've decided I deserve to sleep somewhere that is not just safe, but comfortable and lovely as well.InkMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05519976062467674531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-823847273927280303.post-48254684251013118772009-10-21T12:48:30.303-06:002009-10-21T12:48:30.303-06:00Wow.
