I have been through a lot in my life and have come out smiling and strong. Little things don't bother me anymore and I am able to look life in the eye and do what I have to. I am 25 and a newly wed. I love sharing my life with another and gaining another family in Jamaica. I just moved to a new State all the way across the country. I miss all my friends and family so much. I am a teacher at heart and will always be. Although it has been scary. I worked in Marin and then had my first year in Richmond with 33 4th graders who will always hold a place in my heart. But all I can say is I made it through the hardest year of my life. I have a kind soul from what I can tell and I have been told I act like a mother. I enjoy traveling and have not stopped since I was 3. Every summer I get the itch to go somewhere and this year was Jamaica again, where I met my husband. I love being around people and meeting new people, I guess that is where the traveling comes in. I hope to hear from old and new friends.
