Of course we ended up in Chinatown! Both Kevin and I totally loveeeee going to Chinatown. The good combo of cheap and yummy food always works for us :D By the time we got to Chinatown, it was way past 9:30pm. Most of the shops on Canal St were already closing for the day but we knew that if we walked along the smaller winding streets, we could find many all nighters still open. It was pretty cool actually (maybe a tad bit foolish too) and kinda exciting to walk along the dark, quiet and narrow streets of Chinatown in the middle of the night. It was a way different feeling than walking amidst the hustle and bustle during the day. It felt as if we might run into some Chinatown triad gang around the corner :P While walking down Elizabeth St, we saw a sign that caught my attention immediately. New Malaysia Restaurant. Hmmm, I wonder if it's even open.

I'm sure all of us will agree that providing our children with the best education possible is one of the greatest thing one can do for your child. How do we do that? One of the most effective ways to get a generation of college ready high school graduates is to have excellent educators in every classroom today.However, unfortunately, this is not the scenario in our classrooms today. Did you know that in high-need schools, as many as 1/3 of all students have at least one teacher without even a college minor in the subject taught? The need for teachers (especially in high need disciplines) continues to grow rapidly each day. If this trend continues, it is projected that by 2015, over 280,000 new math and science teachers will be needed in America’s public school classrooms.
Guess what? YOU could be the answer to this problem and play a part in changing the lives of many young people across America. Are you a recent college graduate? Someone looking for a career change? A retiree or even a stay at home mom. Do you have a strong background in science, technology, engineering or math (STEM)? Are you passionate about wanting to teach and impact lives of young Americans? If you answer is yes to the above, then you might be a good candidate for the Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellowship.
What's that, you might ask. Well, the Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellowships seeks to recruit, prepare and retain effective teachers for the students and schools who need them most. What it does is provide recent college graduates and career changers in STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, or math) with a $30,000 stipend to complete an intensive master’s degree program at one of fourteen participating universities. Among some of the participating universities are Purdue University, University of Michigan, Ohio State University and University of Indianapolis. Competitive candidates would need to have completed an undergraduate degree in a STEM field by June 2011 with a 3.0 GPA or higher. They would also need to demonstrate a commitment to the program and its goals. Once selected, Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellows become lifelong members of a national network of intellectual leaders. They would get the opportunity to complete a field-based master’s degree in teacher education. Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellows then will have to teach for at least three years in high-need secondary urban or rural schools, contingent on completing their master’s degree program and attaining their teaching license. They would also receive intensive support and mentoring in the classroom.
Do you think that you would be a good candidate for the Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellowship? If so, head over to www.wwteachingfellowship.org for more information and to fill out an application. Better hurry. Apply now for the September 1 deadline! Remember, you can Change the World by Changing Theirs. Become a Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellow!

If you are a regular reader of this blog, I am pretty sure you would know by now that I totally love shopping. What's there not to like about shopping, right? These days, I notice that I tend to shop more online compared to say, 2 years ago. Shopping online just makes sense. You do not need to fight crowds at the mall (and drive around to find parking spots) and you get access to more choices and designs when shopping online. Also, you do not need to waste time travelling to and walking around various malls, just to find that particular something. With online shopping, everything is at your finger tips!
Whenever I am looking for things for my home, the first place I would head to online is Linens 'N Things. Why? Well, I know for a fact that there is a high chance I would find something that I would like, and mind you, in my budget too! Linen 'N Things feels like my own personal online one stop shop, for the entire home. I am not surprised though. Linens 'N Things carries over 200,000 top brand products ranging from bedding to window treatments to kitchen and bath products to home decor! They even have stuff for pets and babies! In fact, I was just on LNT.com earlier today and I totally fell in love with their Asian Lily by Perry Ellis range. The design is so simply, yet elegant. It also has this modern contemporary feel to it. The best thing is, I love how everything matches, from bedding to shower curtains! I definitely have to get that range for my home.
As much as I love shopping online, there is something that I do not like. That is to pay for shipping. In my opinion, that's the only downside to online shopping. You don't like to pay for shipping too? Well, guess what? I got news for you. I have an exclusive coupon code from Linen 'N Things that is good for free shipping! That's right, FREE SHIPPING! Just use the coupon code: LNTFREE when shopping online at LNT.com and you can receive free shipping! How cool is that? Go ahead and share it with all your friends. After all, good things are meant to be shared! Better hurry though, the coupon code is only valid through 9/15/10. Now, will you please excuse me, I got some serious shopping to do!

Whenever the topic of apartment hunting comes up, I would have to agree with most people that apartment hunting is not something that we look forward to doing. More than often, people have many sleepless nights, just thinking about it. I remember all the headaches that we went through when we first moved to New Jersey from Pittsburgh nearly four years ago. Since we were new in town, we didn't really know the neighborhoods well. Not only that, we really didn't know which apartment community would fit our lifestyle or how bad the rush hour traffic would be in the morning. Trust me, it's no fun at all. If only there were somebody that we knew back then that could have helped us in our apartment search. Somebody who knows the neighborhoods in and out.
To all our Atlanta and Dallas readers, guess what? Boy, we have some news for you! If you are looking for an apartment (or planning to look for one), this is your lucky day.
