I'm a science enthusiast and aspiring omniglot.

I've just moved back from Guatemala City, where I was teaching English and SAT prep at a language school. Before that, I taught English for a year and a half at a public middle school in Seoul.

teaching, I hope. In May 2013, I'm going to start a Master's program in education in New York City. I'm planning to make a career of teaching high school biology.

I'm quite petite and I dress like a 14-year-old boy.

I like bibimbap a lot.

physiological needs, safety and security, love and belonging, self esteem, self actualization, and corrective eyewear.

my current job, and my career plans. how I need to improve my Spanish speaking skills.

relaxing, browsing reddit, and watching movies I've already seen.

I tend not to use proper capitalization when communicating via instant messaging clients.

edit: I thought of a better one. When I turned five, I asked to have a piñata at my birthday party. Maybe I was unclear on the concept; I don't know. Anyway, when my erstwhile loving family members started taking swings at my gentle crepe-paper pony, I couldn't take it. I hid behind the living room couch, weeping, and eventually had to be taken outside. The piñata's broken body was lovingly trundled away in our playroom for months afterward because I refused to part with it.
