Me Ra, you did a wonderful thing with the SOAR scholarships, and it inspires me to try to do a little something good, too. Please send my email to Hannah (video #235) and tell her Martha (Marty) Kravchak wants to help. I can get her your two award-winning videos, and I have some ideas about getting her camera needs met. With some brainstorming, I suspect friends and I can come up with some professional tutoring to get her going. As a former inner city teacher, I feel a strong need to see her succeed in giving her community in Philadelphia the gift of its photo “voice.” Ask her to put HANNAH in the subject line if she chooses to email me, so I don’t toss it out with the daily spam. Many thanks.

You are just tooooo good to us MeRa! What a great way to celebrate Soar entrants! =)

I would be happy to help out in any way that I can.

Dear Me Ra,
The endless ideas never cease to amaze me! Yes, I am usually one of the ones awake at 3.a.m. – one of those blessed (sometimes it can be a curse too) with insomnia in a big way. When you announced yesterday(well now it’s the day before yesterday, cuz it’a already tomorrow 1:55 a.m.) that you had an exciting annoucement to post the next day…I ran over here to check it out since it technically was the next day…just way to early in the morning. Was around 2:30 a.m or so!

This idea is great and would be wonderful to implement, and fun to see the results! Let me know if I can help in any way.

BTW…Since I just found your site a few weeks ago, I’ve been following your blog. I love the way you write straight from the heart and the post from Dec 31st is one of my favorite.
I Promise to go to bed tonight and try to shut the wheels of my mind down and finally get some rest! These fingers need a rest too!

It’s an awesome idea. I’d love to help, but not spearhead as my job is crazy busy right now. Thanks for keeping us all going and excited. I am barely sleeping here. I am so excited to find out!

LOVE IT! Let’s do it! I’m pretty sure all of the fellow SOAR! sisters are right there with you on the sleeplessness issue – especially the late night posters on the SOAR! wall – it’s so cool when you see a new post at midnight – and you know you’re not alone in your insomniatic anticipation!

Your wheels are always turning. Indeed. Hoping you have a restful night of sleep very soon!

What an awesome idea! Your inability to sleep is such a testament to your willingness to be incredibly considerate of every applicant – because we are all swimming in your consciousness.
However, I agree with those above – please do try to get some sleep. I write that knowing that it would be incredibly difficult for me too, given the position you are in. Thanks for holding all of our dreams so sweetly. It is much appreciated.
