Blaugust Challenge Post #2

I meant to do this post yesterday, but it was the last day of a family trip and I drove back so I didn't get the chance. I'm going to try rewriting my original Baugust Post #1; 20 facts about me.

1. I grew up in Ohio.

2. I moved to North Carolina after college to get away from Ohio weather.

3. I've spent the last three years teaching sixth grade math; this year will be my first year teaching high school.

4. I want to go back to school for a Master's, but I'm not sure yet what I want to study.

5. I got my cat from Craig's list when I was in college- I wanted a pet and it was easier to take care of a kitten than a puppy. His name's Kolby; I named him after an adorable 6 year old kid I had in summer camp who sang Beatles songs.

6. I LOVE traveling- I've been to 11 countries and 21 states.

7. I LOVE reading- my favorite is historical fiction.

8. I'm a horrible cook- I've managed to burn no-bake cookies and easy mac :/

9. I rarely eat meat, I never eat seafood, and I never drink milk or (nor?) pop

10. My favorite show is Walking Dead and I'm super excited to see the spin off series.

11. I've wanted to be a teacher since kindegarten, but I was in seventh grade when I decided I wanted to teach math.

12. My favorite math topic is a tie between algebra and statistics.

13. I started playing piano when I was 10 and continued playing instruments until I graduated high school.

14. I had stitches three times as a kid.

15. I have 1  2/3 tattoos. My second one isn't complete; where I get the last piece done is just as important as the tattoo itself.

16. In college I was in a program called Camp Adventure; they trained us and sent us to military bases around the world to run childcare services. For under $5000 total I spent 12 weeks in Japan, 15 weeks in Key West, 3 weeks in Italy, and 10 weeks in Boston.

17. I have 2 to 3 cups of coffee every morning, if I don't have coffee I get a migraine that afternoon.

18. Last school year was rough and I considered switching to be an ITF (Instructional Technology Facilitator).

19. I've never been good at playing sports, I lack the coordination.

20. My first job in high school was working in a candy shop. My second job was working at an amusement park.
