About Me

I am who I am...no more....no less.

This Profile Pimped By MySpaceStuff.org

My name is Amber. I'm 29 years old living right outside of Atlantic City. I am a 2nd grade teacher in a very large school district in South Jersey. I am married to a wonderful man named Daniel. We have a dog named Bailey. She's a curious Shiba Inu. I also have a cat who I lovingly refer to as Grandpa Blaze. I've had him for the last 13 years. He's seen me through my awkward teen years, to graduating college, to getting married.

We are getting ready for a big move! My husband has just been accepted to law school in San Antonio, Texas and we will move there in July to start the next phase of our life. (Read my blog - Times they are a Changin' for more)
As for me, I am a simple girl, although I have a heart with depths like the ocean. I love intimate conversation and getting to know what a person is really about. I have a funny side who likes to joke around. I have a serious side. I have a shy side when I meet new people. I have an pursuing side when I see something I want. I have an open minded side in every situation. I have an emotional side~when something moves me I'm not afraid to cry. I feel like I'm a good balance of everything. I try not to let one side overtake the other.
While I am a teacher now, I aspire to write at least two novels before I die and I want to open up my own cafe one day.
"Character contributes to beauty. It fortifies a woman as her youth fades. A mode of conduct, a standard of courage, discipline, fortitude and integrity can do a great deal to make a woman beautiful." --Jacqueline Bisset
"Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence." --Helen Keller
If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful, you are blessed because the majority can, but most do not."Author Unknown
If I have done anything----even a little----to help small children on the road to enjoy and appreciate honest simple pleasures.....I have done a bit of good. ~ Beatrix Potter
You know most people, they go through life taking little sips, but I want to drink life in big gulps by the cup full. Everyday, I want to make life what it is.

I'd like to meet:

I met him and married him.

Jesus for being who he is in my life. - I'd like to see my Grandma Jemison again, even just to have dinner and tell her about my life. (She died when I was 10 and I've missed having her in my life all these years)- I'd like to meet TV couples Lucy & Kevin (7th Heaven) and Ed & Carol (Ed). Even though they do not exist and are TV fictional characters, I'd like to have someone like them to have as friends that my husband and I can spend time with! (I'm such a TV dork)
