Q and A

Are you spontaneous or more of a planner?

I'd like to be spontaneous. I've tried. But alas, it doesn't work.

I'm such a planner. It stresses me to not plan ahead.

How early is your wake-up call?

Can you sew?

Not at all.

What's your go-to midnight snack?

usually cereal

It's high school all over again. Where would you be found?

Thoughts on journaling?

I love it. It's therapeutic. The problem comes with my forgetful memory. So when I actually do it, I love it ;)

Are you a daydreamer?

big time 

How do you like your food? Spicy or not so much?

I love spicy food!

Last screenshot you took?

A friend shared this lady's photo on Facebook the other day. How clever was this teacher? :)

 

What's for dinner tonight?

chicken and veggies over couscous

Unless I'm exhausted after work. In that case, dinner will end up being a bowl of cereal ;)

Are you typically more trusting? Or are you more guarded?

I'm super guarded. I've been "burned" a bit too much in life. So you have to definitely earn my trust.

Thoughts on learning a foreign language?

I think it's important. It really makes you a better, more rounded person. 

My only "problem" is that when I'm learning a new language, I want to be perfect before attempting to communicate with someone who is fluent in that language. So I end up being scared to even try sometimes. I'm pretty sure I have a fear of failure. Clearly, that's something I need to work on...

Patience... Do you have it?

With kids? Yes. With adults? Not so much. That's something else I'm working on...

Who taught you to cook?

I basically taught myself. My mom gave me a few recipes, but that's it. And I had a very patient roommate at one point, who helped me too. Now I love to cook! :)

Big plans today?

I taught 16 little angels all day. Then I met with the adults planning to help with Kids Club. Now I'm in the library for my weekly after school library duty (there's AC and I can meet a lot more kids this way). Once I'm done here, I have some prep work to do in my classroom. And then, hopefully I'll get to make it home before dark and eat supper and do a couple lessons in my ASL book before bed.

Relationship status?

Single. Know of any single guys who love Jesus? And it'd be nice if they loved Africa too. Just sayin' ;)
