Carmen's Blog

Hey, my name is Carmen. I don't really know why I'm on tumblr. It was a whimsical decision. I am currently in school working on an English Lit./Illustration major. My blog has no focus, I just repost what interests me aka: books, art, movies, tv shows, food etc. Enjoy!

“I just came back from a commencement ceremony. An old student of mine just got his Master’s Degree in Social Work. He grew up in group homes and foster care. He was a handful back when I taught him, but we never gave up on him and he never gave up on himself. And now look at him. He’s already talking about getting his doctorate. Seeing him up there in those robes— my mind is just filled up with images from today.”
