EXTRA EXTRA READ ALL ABOUT IT...HE'S GOT IT, YOUR BABY HE'S GOT IT!!!!
Its a great Friday morning in NY! Its cold yes, but there is that bright beautiful sunshine that makes me feel as though I am back in Trinidad. Then I step out the door and reality hits! I am still in NY and its freezing.
But its still a great Friday because yours truly has just been awarded a SCHOLARSHIP! Can you believe that!
I have to say a special thanks to all of you who prayed and believed this could happen. A special thanks to my family for believeing in me, especially my sister Molly. All those years ago when you went to Wheaton College you thought of me and knew I could do this. You knew I had it in me to reach great heights and now here I am, on my way, living the dream that you helped to instill in me. Thank you very much.
The scholarship is called "Out In Two" and it is designed to assist students in graduating in two years, hence the name. Not that I planned to stay longer! I am so excited and I wish you were all here to celebrate but even though you're not, I am thinking of you.
Its a good day and even if you did not win something I am sure you have many things to be thankful for. Have a grea day, a great weekend and stay in touch.

The Maraj's have it all huh? All this brains as they say in Trinidad. I am happy for you. Now you can really relax and enjoy your College life...stay on the Dean's List now...it's great to finally be able to now say there are now two who went to College.
See you in April.
Love
Your Big Sis
Congrats! -- and not to burst your bubble, but we all knew you were scholarship material, so don't think any of us are surprised or anything. :)
