My friend Heather posted this on her blog, and since I am feeling pretty uninspired at the moment, I thought I would swipe it…
4 Jobs I have Held in My Life:
High school science teacher — I’ll talk about this one first, since it is my current one. I teach Biology and Ecology, and I coach drama. In previous years, if you had asked me, I would tell you that I loved it. This year I don’t love it. I have decided to stay on one more year to determine if the not loving it is something real or passing ennui.
Training & Development Instructor/Performance Improvement Analyst — I did this for one of the big three insurance companies. While they were not the most fun five years of my life, they were invaluable for learning. I learned about professionalism, project management, computer skills, teaching skills, and way more about insurance than I ever wanted to know; all skills that have been invaluable in my current job.
Camp counselor — I spent three summers in college working at a summer camp. It was an amazing experience, and last summer I went back there to lead music for a week.
Subway sandwich artist — Don’t ask.
4 Movies I have Watched More Than Once:
I watch the same stuff over and over, so this one is easy. Four of my most watched–

4 Places I have Vacationed:
White Lake, NC — My family used to go every summer. It’s not exactly a luxury resort, but it was fun.
Myrtle Beach, SC — Last summer I went with my sister and her husband’s family, and it was the best trip I have ever had.
Disney World — I was 14 and had just finished the 9th grade. There were four of us in a Nissan Sentra, and it was a 14 hour drive. I don’t remember much else.
New York City — I love, love, love NYC. I wish I could go back.
