When I first started teaching here, I was at a thing for the elementary kids, and this lady was talking about how some children are tigers which means strength, some are another type which means wisdom and others are otters who always like to play. I’m an otter.

You’re stranded on an island and you can only bring one book and cd. Which ones would you bring?

I’d rather have a guitar. And a subscription to USA today. CD? Nah, I’ll take my I-pod. I have lots of variety.

What’s your favorite past time?

Traveling. The first time I traveled was with college friends.

If you had to choose only one sense, what would it be?

I’d be more scared without sight.

What is your biggest fear?

I think… I don’t know. I think losing your faculties, not being able to move or communicate, but still having a sharp mind. I’d rather go insane so I wouldn’t know the difference.
