Researching Lost Children: The Fiction of Reintegration
Reblogged from drdreyfuss
The most popular story of a feral child has to be that of Tarzan. Raised by apes, Tarzan was recovered and reintroduced to London society, as the Lord of Greystoke: the best of both worlds, Tarzan is wild and strong, but also a gentleman.
Facts lend some support to the idea that a child might be…

Reblogged from univisionnews

One of the common misconceptions about immigration law is that marrying a U.S. citizen means automatic citizenship. It doesn’t.

Sure, people from all over the world party to ring in the New Year, but folks across Latin America and Spain have a special set of traditions and rituals that are all their own.

Last Day Of 2012
I hate saying goodbye or the phrase “The End” because of the finality of it. But I think I’m glad to say farewell to 2012. It’s been just an uneventful and weird year and I’ve lost friends and connections. So GOODBYE 2012.
But there have been good days too. I discovered Ed Sheeran (my future husband), gained new friends, had the biggest creative explosion I’ve ever had (literally, I’ve painted more than I can count) and experienced things I never had, good and bad.
Things I look forward to in the New Year:
1) Driver’s License. I’m just about 18 and I still don’t have that.
2) Graduation! Although I’ll miss High School very much. I actually enjoy school.
3) Senior Week
4) Lose some weight. Hopefully this will be the year I actually do something.
5) Start college.
6) Getting my first job.
And I think that’s it for now. Happy New Year’s everyone! :}
