So I have decided to take the Blog Every Day in May Challenge and I'm excited. The prompt for today is to write your life story in approximately 250 words. 250 words, wow that is a quite a challenge. But here we go!
I was born on a hot and humid summer night back in August of
1981 in Orlando, FL. My childhood was that of your typical suburbia- bike rides
around the neighborhood and cul-de-sacs. As a child I loved to sing (usually
alongside my favorite MTV videos with a hairbrush in my hand) dance, and write
imaginative stories. My mom loves to tell the story of how I once came up with
a whole imaginary family, complete with names and back stories. Yep, I was an
odd child. I have an older sister
who is 20 months older than me. I don’t think I could summarize our
relationship in less than 200 words, but I will give it a try. She was the hot
sister all through high school, it annoyed me since all my guy friends drooled
over her, and now we are super good. I was that girl already thinking about
what colleges I wanted to apply to during freshman year of high school.
Needless to say I graduated high school and went straight to college. Four
years later, I walked across the stage with a “Hell yeah I graduated” strut and
grabbed my bachelors degree in English. After coming to terms with the fact
that I was not going to be hired as a journalist anywhere, I decided to get my
teaching certificate and become a middle school English teacher. On a late June
evening I met up with an old friend and his friend for drinks and accidentally
found the love of my life. 6 years later, we are married and planning
adventures.
