Both of Jessica's parents were lawyers and expected her to follow suit. So she went to law school, got a job at a great firm in Washington D. C. and worked as a lawyer for a decade. But her heart was never in it. "I had a big salary but no personal satisfaction," she said.
Jessica found pleasure in the same thing that had brought her joy since joining the church choir at the age of 12. "Singing always felt like communicating something real at a spiritual and emotional level," said Jessica. Yet she never considered it a career option.

Here's something you don't see every day―a runaway horse and a zebra on the street of Staten Island. The two escaped from a petting zoo, where they had perhaps got tired of too many unpleasant children before running away.
When they were running in the Travis neighbourhood on Wednesday morning, they were filmed(拍攝)by Zachary Osher. He is the owner of Metropolitan Drape and Blind. Osher shared his video with the Staten Island Advocate.
The witness watched the unusual event accidentally, first spotting the odd couple out the window of his store at 9 ： 20 am. He ran outside with his phone to get a picture. He told Yahoo News on the phone, " The horse was leading the zebra. Everywhere the horse would turn, the zebra would follow." Osher was amazed at the sight,saying, "I couldn't figure out what it was―a zebra. A horse maybe, but a zebra? Where did the zebra come from?" He added that he only learned later from reporters that a petting zoo was nearby.
The pair ran around in the parking lot, running back towards Osher, which was when he got his chance to film them with his digital camera. Osher added that he tried to stop them so that they wouldn't run into the street, but they did so anyway ， and narrowly missed being hit by a car. Far behind them were two men in blue jump suits and hats and they were trying to get them.
