My Savior loves, my Savior lives, my Savior's always there for me...

About Me

Alright, here it goes! I live in a small obscure town called Anza located in California. I am a first year elementary teacher in a private school located only about 4 miles from my house, give or take a few (okay, maybe 5 miles). I enjoy teaching so much that I am actually taking online classes to officially get my credential.I am currently also Sparks director at the local AWANA program which I also enjoy very much. That takes away my Tuesday nights.So, do I have time for me? Yes! I've probably spent more than enough money on the movies the last 6 months...okay, it wasn't just me paying but who's counting?Anything else you want to know you can ask. I'm pretty much an open book (unless you want to know about the monster under my bed. He doesn't like me talking about him...oops, he's mad).Oh yeah, if you want to IM, catch on me on: Aim- anzajoshie(you can email me at [email protected] too!)

My Interests

John Rueben is the bomb! Okay, not my favorite artist, but the video is cool!

I'd like to meet:

Today

Today was the first day back to work after Spring break. Why does it seem that the students are always so much more prepared than the teacher? Actually, today went rather well. We had a few laughs, to...

Who can be president?

We have been told that America is the land of opportunity. During this election year, memories of people telling me "anyone can be president" come back to me. But, can anyone be president? Let's face ...

Blue Skies To Grey Then Back Again

Ministry is supposed to be fulfilling. It's supposed to praise the God that gave us so much. It's suppose to be something that helps. But there seems to be people I know who are making it about so muc...
