I have never considered myself a photographer or a writer, although I do and love both. I’ve never considered myself an artist, although I’m constantly creating things. It’s only now that I’m beginning to consciously think more about what it means to be these things, and what it is that I do. Right now, I want to focus on being a writer.
As a teacher of reading and writing, it’s become imperitive that I myself write, and that I consider myself a writer. As I’m reading about writing, I’m developing a philosophy that a teacher needs to model the work and beliefs of a writer. So, in that spirit, I’m re-thinking the value of this blog as my creative outlet for writing to a wide-ranging anonymous audience. I am also writing daily reflection, learnings, and observations in a personal journal, and trying to collect academic learning in another journal that I may use for furutre articles/professional type writing, which leaves this xanga site as an outlet for everything and everything.

Is that little boy totally naked? I suddenly feel a bit disarmed.
You should investigate some good education Action Research sites, start building toward that…
no…the kid is clothed underneath.
