The Weekly Poll Results! 🎈

It is a lucky day today, it is 11/11 after all!! That being said, we get are lucky enough to check out the results of our most recent poll which focused on the delicious subject of chocolate! With all the types of chocolate - how could you go wrong? Well, you definitely can. I will say this before we get into the results, white chocolate was the wrong choice (good news, no one picked it!). Okay, I won't keep the winner from you any longer... the best type of chocolate is DARK CHOCOLATE! This was the obvious choice if you ask me.

Friendly Reminders and Affirmations

  • “Every time you're given a choice between disappointing someone else and disappointing yourself, your duty is to disappoint that someone else. Your job, throughout your entire life, is to disappoint as many people as it takes to avoid disappointing yourself.” - Glennon Doyle

 

  • It is okay to be wrong. We are allowed to change our minds as we continue to learn more information.

 

  • The thing you are creating might not be reaching a lot of people but, that doesn't make it silly. As long as one person (and that can be yourself) sees something in it, it is a win! Keep on creating and putting yourself out there!

Alex's Book, Show, and Music Corner

  • KPOP on Broadway: This was a very fun show to watch and it was cool to see this type of representation on Broadway! It was cute and a little cheesy but, a fun time overall. I wouldn't say I am running to see this show but, I def enjoyed it!

 

  • A Christmas Carol on Broadway: I can't say I loved it. This felt very much like an audiobook. It had great production design but, I really was not a big fan of it overall.

Other News - TCS NYC Marathon!

While this could fall under the "In the Headlines" section, I wanted to give it its own special highlight. On November 6th, I completed the NYC Marathon and I couldn't be more proud. It was one of the hottest (the mid-70s!) and most humid races in its' history which provided for a challenging day but, I am proud nonetheless. This day was a culmination of so many things for me. It represented community, creativity, perseverance, resilience, and so much growth. I will forever remember this day. Thank you all for your support through this journey! Can't wait for the next one!
