The Life of a Future Teacher

Virginia Tech Commencement May 16, 2008

Filed under: Graduation, Hoda Kotb, Virginia tech, tears — learningtoteach @ 11:00 pm

I went to my friend’s graduation at Virginia Tech last weekend, and since then have been trying nonstop to find the words to describe Friday night’s commencement ceremony. I still have not been able to put any coherent sentences together describing the emotions that I felt, and so I decided, rather, to share the experience with you.

Hoda Kotb was absolutely phenomenal. She had me in tears, although that doesn’t take much to do :) . She also made me laugh. She made me want to live every minute of my life as if it were the last, and the best.

I just watched this video again, and was again brought to tears and laughter. And still, I have no words.
