One in 8 Million


Next week, my husband and I will be visiting New York City. This is very exciting for me, since we haven't been alone together on a trip in over a decade. Plus, I've always wanted to visit NYC. So, of course, I've been a bit over-zealous in my planning...so many places to see...so little time! I've spent many hours talking to friends who have already been to NYC and I've explored every nook and cranny of NYC online.

Through my online travels, I've found a very cool project on the New York Times website. It's called One in 8 Million. The project consists of a series of vignettes of everyday New Yorkers who are telling their stories. The black and white photos of the people are striking, the accents are thick, and the stories are touching. Can you imagine if something similar was prepared for St. John's? Hmmm...anyone out there want to partner with me on this one?
