I am here for Friends

About Me

I am a divorced single mother of an 11 years-old boy who literally saved my life. I am a teacher in an after school enrichment program serving children from 5 - 12 years of age. No, I'm not a day care teacher. Yes, there is a difference. I still don't know what I want to be when I "grow up", but I do know that I want to have fun. I'm loud, and like to test the limits, just to find where the line really is.

My Interests

music, books, movies. not too into sports. like to watch ice hockey, though. useless trivia is my specialty.

Music:

I like all different types of music. Not too into R&B, though. Classical music usually puts me to sleep (I think I was conditioned as a child). My secret guilty pleasure is listening to Eminem. I know I shouldn't like his music, but I truely enjoy it. I love the 80's, and disco (yes, I'll admit it), and all the hair bands.

Movies:

My absolute favorite movie is Breakfast Club. Love the brat pack! My favorite never heard of before movie is ClosetLand. Only has two actors in the whole film, but it is really intense. If you can find it, watch it!

Television:

Law & Order rocks!! So does CSI (the original, not all the others). I like watching crime/forensic shows. My roommates have now completed their evil plan and forced me to watch American Idol (now, I'm addicted). Can't wait to find out who wins this year.

Books:

Just finished reading My Sister's Keeper. Awesome book about having a child to save the one already here. Very good! Two thumbs up.

Heroes:

Anyone in the military; anyone who stands up for what they believe in regardless of the consequences (and accepts those consequences); my parents; my son

feeling trapped

Okay, I've been feeling like this for a while. I wish I knew how to get out of this funk. Nothing seems to spark my interest for more than a few minutes. I was going to get my tongue pierced today,...
