About Me

I am currently a 1st grade teacher at a school in Fairfax, which is my passion. I am currently getting my masters at GMU in elementary education and one day I will actually take my last 4 classes. My best attributes are that I am a very caring, sincere, and loyal person, which can be more of a curse than anything else. I carry around Tums, because I get heartburn at any given time. I can quote pretty much every Friends episode that has ever existed and I have a wonderful episodic memory. My worst attributes are that I am too trusting of people, I don’t like change, and I am very picky with just about everything in my life. Although I am very responsible, I am also indecisive and a huge procrastinator. If I had to sum up who I am in one phrase, it would be a pessimist with a smile! Some people will tell you that I never talk and others will tell you that I won’t shut up. If you gave me a choice to do anything or sleep, I will almost always pick sleep. I tend to pronounce words incorrectly, I have a favorite for just about every category you can think of, and I rank things in lists i.e. music, movies, songs, really anything that you can pretty much rank. My biggest pet peeve is when people do not call you back when they say they will. I’m not a fan of people who are fake, selfish, and manipulative. I love people who are knowledgeable, passionate about music, and have a sarcastic sense of humor, however, it is rare that I find someone who intrigues me. My greatest fear besides spiders is that I do not mean as much to the people that mean the world to me.

My Interests

It's the little things; that's what's big...Listening to music, going to concerts, being around my true friends, meeting new people, learning everything I can from my grandfather, being around kids, sleeping in past 6am, taking naps on my couch, listening to my IPOD, collecting quotes, drinking coffee, eating egg biscuits from McDonalds, lower level season tickets to the Washington Redskins, watching NFL football, drinking beer, consuming bottles of wine, shots of Jaeger, intelligent conversations, inquisitive people, going to bars, people who intrigue me, playing the piano, being introduced to new music, going to the beach, road trips, Italian and Mexican food, studying meteorology, history, and philosophy, taking pictures, playing spider solitaire and free cell, completing my concert scrapbook (it's never ending), SuDoKu puzzles, driving while analyzing my thoughts, and doing anything else I can think of other than grading papers from my lovely job.

I'd like to meet:

I'm really not interested in meeting famous people. Most likely they will not meet the expectation of who I vision them to be. I rather live in ignorance. However, I wouldn't mind sitting down and having a beer or two with Demetri Martin, Matt Pryor, Nate Reuss, Claudio Sanchez, Ace Enders, Dave Grohl, Adam Lazzara, Robert Smith, and Zach Braff.
