Update
Not much new, I have survived a full week out here in New York. Today most of the interns went to the Foundation Center to take two free classes on using their database and the first steps to develop a grant proposal. Yes I know, sounds thrilling, but most of it was actually pretty interesting. These people have gathered information on pretty much every foundation/organization/corporation that has donated money to nonprofits in the past however many years. This includes people who will give money to individual students. There is actually a free (yeah!) class that is called "Finding Foundation Support for Your Education". Sounds good to me, I'm definitely going and finding out how to convince someone they want to send me to grad school while I learn how to fix the world.
Anyway, if anyone has some summer reading suggestions let me know. I have some books, mostly John Shelby Spong, but I'll get through them pretty quick if my time in Central Park was any indication on Saturday. Heavy stuff like Spong is fine, but fun stuff is good too.
Hopefully I'll have interesting stuff soon but for now know that I am still alive and safe and doing just fine.
