Introduction My name is Amanda Rorrer. I graduated Summa Cum Laude in 2010 from The University of North Carolina at Greensboro, where I majored in English with a minor in Drama. I have been married for six years to a wonderfully supportive man and we have a five year old daughter. I enjoy spending time with my family and our dogs, running, cycling, theatre, and scrapbooking. I love animals and we have two spoilt rotten dogs. I am an avid runner and love to write. I teach 10th and 11th grade English at Morehead High School...I am only 3 months away from officially surviving this first year of teaching!!! PS, I take no credit for the photos on my blog unless they are pictures of my family. If you see a photo you would like for me to credit, please comment and I will respond.
