I am here for Friends

About Me

I like dancing, taking pictures, people watching, drinking cider, listening to live Irish music. I work with students with special needs. I want to get my Doctorate in the field of Autism and become an Autism Specialist. It's been a very long road to finish school but, I'm actually almost done. My life is my work with my students. They hold a very special place in my heart. I have a wonderful fiance who treats me like an angel. I've become lazy in my old age. This past September, I participated in the MS 50 Mile Challenge walk. I ended up with blisters in places that I didn't even know you could get them. But, I'm ready to do it again! I love to laugh and be silly, sometimes to a fault. My friends tell me I'm mischievious, could be my freckles and crazy green eyes, that make people think that but I don't think so though.
You Are a Prophet Soul
You are a gentle soul, with good intentions toward everyone.
Selfless and kind, you have great faith in people.
Sometimes this faith can lead to disappoinment in the long run.
No matter what, you deal with everything in a calm and balanced way.
You are a good interpreter, very sensitive, intuitive, caring, and gentle.
Concerned about the world, you are good at predicting people's feelings.
A seeker of wisdom, you are a life long learner looking for purpose and meaning.
You are a great thinker and communicator, but not necessarily a doer.
Souls you are most compatible with: Bright Star Soul and Dreaming Soul What Kind of Soul Are You?

I'm tired of everyone telling me what I should be doing. I'm doing the best I can at this point in time, which is just barely surviving with things. Right now, I'm ok with being where I am at. I'm not...
