QUOTABLE QUOTES

"It looks like you would feel it in weird and awesome places" - jd

So, Jd was telling me the other day that I needed to update my profile since I'm not a teacher anymore, and I was saying that I wasn't ready yet. I love my life now...the freedom, the money (HELLO!), the travel...but the one thing that's hard is abandoning that identity, that "I'm a teacher" thing. I loved that, it was a huge part of me for a long time. (I actually even got all teary-eyed when I told Jd 'I'm not ready yet!' haha...I'm getting so sentimental in my old age!)
But I DO realize that it's time to move into the future, so I'm updating. Still, I also want to continue to honor that part of me, so I'm leaving the other part like an archive. :P
Anyway, Shari says that I'll always be a teacher - that teachers are like alcoholics in that way. So it's not that I'm *NOT* a teacher anymore...I'm just "in recovery." :D
So, here's my job now: I promote things. Events, products, people. And I get a cut of the profits. Maybe it's not as selfless and "change the world"-y as teaching was. But it pays better. :P
Here's my job before: I teach 6th, 7th, and 8th grade Reading and Writing at a school for social justice called Los Angeles Leadership Academy - and I adore it! :-)
Here's the stuff that hasn't changed: My sister is my best friend. I blow most of my disposable income on live music. My favorite color is blue. To find out more about my fascinating life, visit me on the web at www.auntiemel.com.
Who I'd like to meet: "Who I'd Like to Meet" is boring. Therefore, I'm using this space to post my friendster testimonials, which I love. :-)
CHRIS - Slap an infectious smile on the front of
one of the most level heads in the
world, and that's Melanie. She's one of
the rare people who's managed to
accumulate wisdom without losing her
joie de vivre. Loyal through it all and
still fully aware of who she is - yeah,
tough to go wrong with this..)
EVELYN - Melanie is the one girl in the world
who can put up with me 24/7, and
therefore not only the best roommate I
have ever had, but also one of the best
friends I could have ever hoped to wish
for. She is caring, sweet, and wise,
but all of that in addition to a wicked
sense of humor. Melanie also has the
most amazing, sparkling blue eyes and
most infectious smile to be found in
the state of California, if not the
entire planet. She is someone who will
never stop astounding you with some
incredible facet of her personality.
MICHELLE - Melanie is one sweet, intelligent,
funny, school-teaching chica! She's
become a good friend to me via an
internet message board. I know she'd
be a great person for you to meet.
Only three, but I think you'll agree they're quality statements. :-)
Also, here's an IQ test I took. So, basically...suck it, MarK! :-D
