 * Marion thinks ...**
 * I plan on finishing my master's degree in international education at NYU by December 2012. I'm thinking of applying to the NYC Teaching Fellows Program to gain my NYC teaching certification in March 2013. This summer, I want to travel to Honduras for 6 weeks and get my SCUBA dive master's license. Someday, I want to get my pilot's license so I can fly planes down to the Caribbean and SCUBA dive for spiny lobsters, then grill and eat them on the beach. I also want to write and publish a book one day.**
