: About Me

I was born in Scranton, PA (home of The Office), where I now work part-time as the night animal control officer. In the day I work as a substitute teacher for the autistic and multi-handicapped, except in summer where I pick up any work I can find. I also model for drawing classes, play piano, run marathons, snowboard, and draw. I went to college at Bloomsburg for English, during which time I lived in England for 5 months and also was a Delta Phi Epsilon sister. I have worked more jobs than I can recall since I was 10. I've recently returned from Switzerland where I lived and worked for the whole year 2008 as a nanny, picking up a couple languages in my travels. I love teaching English as a second language, but I got kicked out of my local charity where I volunteered for it because the program director is a bitch. It's still the one thing I really want to do someday. I eat a Krispy Kreme doughnut for breakfast every morning because I live across the street, and I'm soon to drive a Jeep Wrangler, finally.
