| Introduction | To tell you about myself, I'll say that you can find me talking about the following things the most: friends, family, religion, crafting, Wednesday night Craft Nights, card-stock stitching, grammar, the French language, movies, quoting anything (which I always terribly quote), short-term memory loss, reusable bags, my old 1920's apartment, living in France, traveling around, road-tripping, my students, my mom, my best friend Thomass, my best friend Faith, Cory Branan, White Water Tavern, Stifft Station, Hillcrest, Heights, coffee shops, etc. Stuff I'm good at: The French language. English and French grammar. Giving advice. Worrying. Understanding others through their emotions or facial expressions. Sympathy. Communication. Feeling sorry for people. Smiling. Being rational. Not regretting. |
