My Special Event #1 Last Spring Break, Rich and I went on My first real spring break trip ever! We Traveled on a cruise to the Cayman Islands and Key West, Florida. Rich and I had many memorable experiences during our vacation like swimming with string rays and snorkeling on a barrier reef. However, the most exciting and memorable thing that happened was on the last night of the cruise. Rich asked me to marry him!! We are engaged to be married this year.....on August 04, Not only will this be a special day for me as it is my wedding day, but I chose this date as it is my grandfather’s birthday and my grandparents’ wedding anniversary. As my grandparents are two of my favorite people in this world and have been married for 60+ years, I found it a great day to start the rest of my life with Rich.

My Special Event #2 Last weekend, I got a puppy!! He is a 10 week old miniature dachshund, and currently weighs about 2 pounds. Full grown he will only reach about 10 pounds. His name is Onyx. Rich and I think that he is just adorable!! What about you?

5 Things I Want My Class To Know About Me (1)I want my students to know that I am their teacher, but also their friend. I want them to feel safe and comfortable to come to me in the event that they need anything or need someone to talk to. (2)I enjoy photography and creative arts. (3)I am a HUGE butterfly admirer. (4)I have known that I wanted to teach elementary school since I was in the fifth grade. (5)Most importantly, I want my students to know that to achieve goals in life, they must never give up on their dreams. Although achieving one’s dreams in life requires determination and perseverance, the results and accomplishments far out way the sacrifices.

I have 3 goals for myself in These goals are promises I have made to myself and strive to accomplish this year. (1)Get Healthy. I am getting married this year, and desire to lose a few pounds so that I may look stunning on my wedding day. I really want to knock my fiancé's socks off as I am walking down the aisle. (2)Do Well in School. I have managed to excel during my academic career thus far in the PROTEACH program at the University of Florida. I desire to continue this trend, and make the Dean’s List for the third semester in a row. (3)Plan a Wedding. As I only have about 6 months left, I have to plan a wedding on a budget in a hurry while going to school full time. I want our special day to be one that all in attendance will enjoy and remember! My Goals for 2007
