Oh, if only they would blog! Launching this website has made me quite marketable. In one case, I was hired for a teaching gig within 24 hours of sending out my initial query email, which was amazing.

Ouch &#8212; do you know how hard it is to give her that when I&#8217;ve been raised with success-obsessed values?! What a challenge to let go of personal expectations so that my 17-year-old baby can find herself. It&#8217;s especially hard because [...]<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BettyMingLiu/~4/1AIUoMcgxxI" height="1" width="1"/> http://bettymingliu.com/2012/05/best-mothers-day-gift-of-2012/feed/ 10 http://bettymingliu.com/2012/05/best-mothers-day-gift-of-2012/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/BettyMingLiu/~3/42RkgrT2oVA/ http://bettymingliu.com/2012/05/check-out-my-new-job/#comments Tue, 08 May 2012 04:01:15 +0000 betty ming liu http://bettymingliu.com/?p=14828 After a 17-year haitus, I&#8217;m a full-time reporter again &#8212; but in an edgy new, tech-driven world that is giving me a second chance at finding more of myself. I still can&#8217;t believe that this is actually happening! Last weekend, we launched Newsday for Westchester at NewYork.Newsday.com. The mission is to cover news in the suburban [...]<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BettyMingLiu/~4/42RkgrT2oVA" height="1" width="1"/> http://bettymingliu.com/2012/05/check-out-my-new-job/feed/ 24 http://bettymingliu.com/2012/05/check-out-my-new-job/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/BettyMingLiu/~3/0sZNka89pi8/ http://bettymingliu.com/2012/04/wringing-toothpaste-from-a-tube/#comments Sun, 29 Apr 2012 01:03:57 +0000 betty ming liu http://bettymingliu.com/?p=14817 Brushing my teeth a few minutes ago could&#8217;ve been annoying because there wasn&#8217;t much toothpaste left in the tube. Instead, I enjoyed dealing with the situation by taking out my&#8230;tube wringer. And, YouTube. I need to get better at this video stuff because it&#8217;s such a great way to communicate. Making videos is also fun.
