Last Friday, on our tour of the Reasoning Mind headquarters in Houston, TX, I met the Reasoning Mind Math Genie!!!!! Check out our moment captured in time below. For those of you not familiar with the Genie, she is unique to the interface of Reasoning Mind. She is the "genius" of Reasoning Mind City, congratulating students on achievements, explaining mistakes, and demonstrating key concepts. She's the constant encourager in the world of math. Walking around the office, employees can walk by one office door which has an expo board which displays "Genie messages," which are kids' comments to the genie--some of them are quire adorable. Genie is often mentioned as a "best friend" or someone who really cares about the kids. :) At Reasoning Mind, one can always see the impact of what one is doing--the kids and their responses to Reasoning Mind makes my heart smile.
On Friday evening, Jaclyn, Alex, Carmelle, (spelling?!), and another kind friend took us campus reps to the downtown annual Tree Lighting ceremony!--It's really a celebration!!!!! And, it truly marks December 1st as the Countdown to Christmas. It was a jolly time, as their were Santa volunteers handing out blinking santa hats (a definite plus), and I stepped away for a cookie cake slice with icing--YUM! Many young talented dancers, singers, and band members shared their talent with the city--even the Sensations Review showed up to belt out some Christmas tunes. Fireworks ignited the atmosphere as the giant Tree in the downtown center lighted up, marking the 25 days 'til Christmas. Not only is Reasoning Mind a great organization to be a part of, the city of Houston is a wonderful place to be. We discussed a few pluses for living in Houston--great PEOPLE (Friendly, kind, and truly helpful). Also, the cost of living is lower, so the wages you make in Texas can take one further!!! Just saying.
