And now, a word from our sponsor...


"During your VISTA year, you may sometimes come to challenges that you thought you might not be able to overcome. You might think that that last bowl of ramen was pretty damn horrid, or you may even be questioning the integrity of choosing to serve your comunity for a year at poverty level when you've STILL got that mortgage you're trying to pay off (or maybe you haven't even got on yet - doesn't everybody have one?).

Well, we here at the CTC VISTA Project have only one thing to say..."






















Are YOU 'hangin tough'?

Hangin' Tough
by the New Kids On the Block

Intro... Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
(Verse) Listen up everybody if you wanna take a chance
Just get on the floor and do the New Kids dance
Don't worry about nothing cause it won't take long
We're gonna put you in a trance with the funky song
Cause you gotta be...
(Chorus) Hangin' tough
Singing tough
Singing tough
Are you tough enough?
Hangin' tough
Singing tough
Singing tough
We're rough
Oh Oh Oh Oh x2
(Verse) Everybody's always talking about who's on top
Don't cross our paths cause you're gonna get stopped
We ain't gonna give anybody any slack
And if you try to keep us up we're gonna come right back
And you know it...
(Chorus)
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh x4
(Music Break)
(Verse) Get loose everybody cause we're gonna do our thing
Cause you know it ain't over till the fat ladyt sings
Check it out...
(Music Break)




(well, actually two more things)

Have YOU 'kept on truckin''?











































And lastly...






















Do YOU have the Eye of the Tiger?






















Eye of the Tiger
by Survivor

Risin' up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive

So many times, it happens too fast
You change your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

Chorus:
It's the eye of the tiger, it's the cream of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all in the eye of the tiger

Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds 'til we take to the street
For we kill with the skill to survive

chorus

Risin' up, straight to the top
Have the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive

chorus

The eye of the tiger (repeats out)...

You can also print out the lyrics to either sing along OR simply post them in your place of work for words of inspiration during times of none.

Oh man, nothing motivates me more than "Eye of the Tiger". Thanks, Morgan! Maybe we should make an inspirational CTC VISTA mix cd?
