Happy New Year!
This year I’m hoping to be more active on here, write/post stuff more. We’ll see how this goes.
Let’s goooo!

Last week I went to Charleston, SC to attend YALLFest, a Young Adult Book Festival. I went with fellow tap dancers Stacey and Liz, and we met up with three other awesome ladies: Stephanie, Marj, and Ashley.
We drove down to Virginia Wednesday evening and stayed the night. Thursday morning, we set out to drive the rest of the way. Here are a few pictures of our trip:

…don’t know how often this will be, but I thought, why not?
So I’m a teacher now. It’s been one hell of a roller coaster ride. The last time I updated, I was in grad school. I’m still in grad school (working on my thesis), but also teaching full time in a high school in Baltimore. I also teach Motion Graphics to a bunch of college kids here and there. And I’m also taking teaching certification classes this semester.
I also am a cantor-in-training at my church and take dance classes twice a week.
It’s a lot, but very fulfilling. I really can’t (shouldn’t) complain.
You can say that I’ve grown up a lot these past few years. A lot has happened since my last update. Two summers ago I hit a low that I couldn’t shake, but then I got an offer for a full time teaching position. It was a sudden change. I was babysitting my niece and a family friend when I got the call. It was bittersweet and I had to hug the little munchkins. They didn’t understand. They like hugs!
I had to give up babysitting which I really miss. High school students are something else. Super hormonal and emotional and energetic and all over the place.
But it’s really ending and starting a new chapter in my life. I knew I couldn’t stay there forever, but it was nice while it lasted.
I’m not sure what will become of this blog. I miss having time to sit and write. I have a group of people who have made me want to start writing again, so I just need to hang out with them more to get that momentum going.
We’ll see what happens…

It was really all a matter of time before I went crazy.
I believe this is my umpteenth blog ever in my history of blogging.
So now what?
A girl in our Words & Images class is extremely against social media. I look at her and I’m like, “WHAT?! Social Media is my LIFE!” Now, I’m starting to feel that little annoyance with social media.
I had to stop myself while writing this post to think of ways this message can get out to the world. Thought of copying + pasting to other blog sites I have (but apparently you can get fined from Google). Also thought of doing one of those RSS feeds to my Facebook Page (but apparently it can’t read self-hosted WordPress Blogs).
I have come to the conclusion that this posting will go nowhere…no where? I’ll tell it to go where I want it to go by sharing a link (I wanted to change the permalinks to show the post name, but WordPress doesn’t like me. So I’m stuck with p=#…I know, not as sexy).
It’s funny that so many people have recommended me to use WordPress for my site. I’ve been going crazy over the past few days trying to figure this thing out. Certain plugins work here and there, but plugins are so outdated that it crashed your site if you try to edit it.
It’s funny thing about the internet. Stuff from 6 years ago are still up. I tried looking for some tutorials on certain things for here but I ended up finding that most of them are outdated and useless. The internet is supposed to be this crazy information resource but everything changes. It’s hard to keep track.
To punish myself further, I’ve decided to keep all of my other blogs just to stay connected to friends. I guess I’ll post certain stuff here and there. I don’t know how good I’ll be with that. I just want to keep blogging.
My mind is all over the place…

Posting from my iPhone. Testing this out.
I found this sticker on a parking meter. It just so happened that when I went in to take this picture a woman was parking. I had to explain to her that I wasn’t being weird. She kept her distance from me.
If anyone knows what this is about, explain please?
