I have a younger brother, Cody; he is 17 going on 18 and just graduated high school from Lindsay Collegiate Vocational Institute in Lindsay, Ontario.  He has been accepted to Appalachian State University and plans to attend in the spring after saving some money towards the out-of-state tuition dues.

I also have an older sister, Olivia, she is 26 and has recently came back the the US of A after a 27 month tour across Uganda,  Africa serving in the United States Peace Corps.  As she was stationed in Busia, Uganda, she also created a blog of her adventures.  I will be adding the link to my new blog so that anyone interested in the Peace Corps or African culture can see first hand of what it is like.

I started school in Wilmington, North Carolina and then moved another dozen times or so.  Amongst all the moving, I graduated from a little town called Trinity, North Carolina.  Our sign read “The City of Vision”, and it was always met with a reply of “…and boy do we have a view from here”.

I came to Appalachian in the spring of 2005.    Like most of you reading this, I hope to be graduating in May of 2010.  By that time, I hope to have an idea of an area in which I will search for a teaching job.  My guess is that it will be in Canada.
