Q and A from ajmanx

1) What do you do? I am a teacher with CAPE inc.(Community Association for Preschool Education)and I teach poverty level kids to speak English( or are they teaching me Spanish?...)

2) What did you want to do as a kid? As a kid I wanted to be either a P.I. or a singer in a rock band.(Go Pat Benatar Fantasies)

3) Do you ever think about the death of your parents? I have tried not to as I am not big on having to bury a loved one. I have had my boyfriend die in an accident we were both in and it was hard to go to the funeral and such. I am not looking forward to how I will feel when my parents pass. You never really think of that as a kid, then as you hear about all their illnesses and issues with doctors, you realize that they will die and well it is just something one must ponder as unpleasant as it is.

4) Do you ever think that in a particular amount of time you will be at your maximum state of happiness with your station in life? No. I don't think it is a time issue. I personally enjoy most ever time in my life until I start comparing myself to others. Then I start to become dissatisfied with where I am at. Then after about 20 minutes I say"HEY! I am not mr. x. I am me and I love my job and my life. So what if I am not a $50-80 thousand a year home owner. I have seen things some people don't even know exist! I have seen all of King Tut's Treasures, been to Europe and Africa and Canada. I do Renaissance Faire, I dress in silly clothes and camp for fun, I have little people hug me every day and say"We love you Sally." just because they want to, and I am on my own schedule and have to live up to NO ONE's expectations of me!" I then go back to being silly and happy with my life...(Did that answer your question or just give you way too much?)

5) What's your favorite dream? My favorite dream... hmmmm wellllll... I guess that would be to have enough money to do what I like and still be able to help others, when needed. I would travel the world, see all the places I saw as a child and see other that I wasn't able to get to see. I would also like to live in NYC for a little while and see plays and such. I might then like to Live in Florence Italy and really absorb the culture.
