So I'm changing up my profile since so much has changed for me in the past 3 months. It's October now which I love because I love halloween. If I still lived in Ohio I would be raking leaves and jumping in them and playing in the perfectly cool weather. Since I live in Florida though, I'm dealing with 90+ degree weather and the need for a better tan. I love being tan. I love the cold and once I am done with school I plan on moving back some where up North, possibly Ohio, possibly another city. I'm currently a full time student studying to be an elementary teacher. I would love to see what it's like to teach in a big city, though I know that would be quite a challenge. I love working with special needs kids. When I say special needs though, I don't mean mental handicaps, I mean children who have a hard time at home, have parents who "don't care", or are just the common "trouble maker". My favorites (and yes, teachers do have favorites) are always the trouble makers, the leaders of the pack, and I always befriend them. It makes my job a challenge, easier, and fun all at the same time. I like a challenge, I like conversation, I like challenging conversation. I have no patience when it comes to little things, but I have all the patience in the world when it comes to my career path. I'm a true scorpio to the fact that I am extremely stubborn. I'm also very honest. I do my best not to hurt people's feelings with my brutal honesty, but I make sure to almost never lie because lies hurt more than anything, in my honest opinion. I'm the outgoing one in my group of friends. I'm the one that wants to try everything, regardless of how dangerous or bizarre it may be. I REALLY want a boat, especially recently, but my friends tell me I'm crazy, hah. I really want to try jet skiing too, but my best friend refuses to try it with me. I guess I'll have to keep trying to talk her into it. I'm a grammar Nazi, btw. I'm not always perfect with my spelling and grammar, we all make mistakes, but I get very annoyed when grown men (and women) don't know how to spell common words or use insanely improper grammar.
Oh yeah! I forgot to mention I have my tongue peirced, my ears peirced 5 times, and I have a tattoo on my foot. I adore body body modification as long as it's tasteful and within moderation. I plan on getting 2 more tattoos at some point in my life.
So some interests of mine: tattoos, peircings, the gym, sushi, and the beach are some things that make me happy.

Right now I am going to school full time at FAU. I am an elementary education major and should be graduating in December of 2010. I'm really excited to start teaching! Right now I also work in the Dean's office at school and I also am a Substitute Teacher in Palm Beach County. I love working with kids and I love seeing my hard work pay off. Once I graduate with my BAE i plan to work a couple years then go back to school at night for my MA. Education is VERY important to me.

talking. I'm also really good at listening. I can be egotistical and say I'm really good at being me too. I get along with almost everyone. I always make people feel important because I think everyone is important in his or her own way. I'm also really good at being critical though- little things get on my nerves, and usually I can get over it, but sometimes if it's consistent, I'll let you know it bugs me. I think I've officially made myself sound like such an egotistical b*tch, but I promise I'm really not.

I'm short! But fun and friendly and people say I have an adorable voice... haha.

I love books about people in distress, memoirs mostly. It's nice to know that some people have it worse than you, as bad as that may sound. My favorite books are The Perks of Being a Wallflower and Running with Scissors. My favorite movie is 10 Things I hate about You and I'm quite depressed that they're turning it into a TV show! As far as music, I like to a lot of different stuff but Rock (most types) is my favorite. The Beatles are my favorite band ever.

Friends, Family, Education, Cell phone, internet, and hmmm I'll say my dogs =)

my future! I think a lot, usually it's about my future, but that could mean the next 10 minutes, 10 days, 10 months, or 10 years. My mind is always going and sometimes it really gets on my nerves.

doing something spontaneous. I might be sitting at home doing nothing or I might be out playing pool, seeing a movie, at my friend's house, getting dinner with a couple buddies, etc.

Probably my weightloss. I'm embarassed of my weight, I always have been, but I'll admit I'm working hard to do something about it. I'm devoted to be *perfect* for myself. I work out, I eat healthy, I'm a mad calorie counter- but I do splurge sometimes. I've lost around 60+ lbs so far and I'm continuing to lose every unnecessary pound. what I'm trying to say is, don't hold my weight against me. I'm aware I'm not skinny, but I am doing something about it.

You think I'm awesome (um, I am awesome so you should probably message me =D). You should also message me if you think we'd get along well and you want a new friend that may or may not become more than a friend.

To be honest- winks make me really angry. If you are interested in me you should message me. I don't know how to reply to a wink, but I know how to answer questions and say hello back. I never wink at people, I don't like being winked at. (Pet peeve maybe?)
