		<description>Caren,
It&#039;s excellent that your school does workshops on this -- I think new media really has the potential to create cool opportunities in the classroom. I&#039;ll e-mail you a pretty good resource I found on that topic :)... and we can chat about it in real life this summer!

@ Matthew - Haha! See, I did not tell a lie. 

@ TJ - Yes, what you&#039;re touching on is so important -- allowing all our interactions and new ideas we encounter to expand our own perspective. 

@ James - I&#039;m curious now -- what&#039;s the idea? :)

@ Melissa - Thank you :-D! Yea, video was more fun than I expected... I want to figure out how to incorporate it more often. 

@ Kate - I love how this makes it seem like I&#039;m meeting you guys on another level. I know you certainly see where I&#039;m coming from with the whole abroad urge... and the writing too, of course!

@ Vickie - Thanks! It makes me happy when you stop by the blog :).</description>

		<description>Yay to Zoe! I totally agree with your dream on traveling abroad. There&#039;s no bigger adventure than that and you can live life every moment, every minute. We&#039;re getting closer to that dream. :)

I agree with Melissa. You&#039;ve got a great smile and I felt totally at ease while watching the video. It was great to finally &#039;see&#039; you.

		<description>This is outstanding, Zoe. I enjoyed watching your video and learning more about your personal story, and you have such a bright smile! It made me smile too. More video! And congrats on winning. You definitely earned it.

		<description>Congrats on the win and thanks for sharing the video. It&#039;s fun to hear your voice. Your thoughts on technology&#039;s impact on our lives are interesting.

You also gave me a great idea. It&#039;s not directly related to the video&#039;s content, but it&#039;s something I can do for West Texas Writers. Thanks.
