dear momma and daddy
ever since i was little i remember yall encouraging me to follow my passions. when i was into cooking yall bought me ingredients. when i was into bird watching yall bought me wood to build bird houses. luckily for yall this passion i wish to follow now requires no money. in fact it will in a way produce money or atleast free up money that yall had previously set aside. i am going to teach first graders to speak english in south america. i know your thinking what about college but lets think this through. in high school you pushed me to work harder and make all a's. it just so happens that i pushed myself so much that i learned everything i needed to know in high school. i speak spanish fluently and know way more about the english language than what is needed to teach first graders. i cant way to help these deprived children! arent you excited for me???

dear hannah
