Tarra's Story

Life Send me a shout out on gmail at scottty820. Anyways, I'm going on six years living in Taipei, Taiwan as an ESL teacher although I am planning to return...no, I really mean it this time... either in the summer of 2007 or in the winter of 2008. I'll be heading back to my native Florida where the word "snow" is something other people experience. No kids yet, but my niece and nephew are good practice for all the spoiling I'm going to do of my own little ones. Other than that, nothing much new. School The greatest irony of being a bad student is that now I have to tell my own students to do their homework. Of course, they also know that I disliked doing it as a student and that if I give it to them, it's because I feel it's important and not busy work. If only our teachers had the same attitude. College I wish I could have had more time in college. I had to squeeze everything in within 4 years while I still received my financial aid, but despite all the stuff I went through, especially because of the Marching 110 and feeling royally screwed over in that endeavor, I still wish I could have had one more year. It was the best four years of education that I had ever experienced and I keep wanting to get back into being a college student, even though I know it won't be the same. Late nights in Scott Quad with the original gang (no double dipping!)... Bus rides on "Alpha Sigma Sigma" Row... Living in France my sophomore year... Singing "Gloria" by Poulenc with the combined voices of all of OU's chorale groups... Marching in Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade 2000...Expand for more
on national television... and the infamous poker game that somehow everyone found out about. Someday, when I'm finished being an adult (and have enough money), I'll go back to do graduate work and get my teaching certs. Someday. :) Workplace I started working at the tender age of 12 at Franklin Public Library where I was told I couldn't actually be hired since the legal age was 14 so I did volunteer work there. I worked at Donato's for a month when I was 15, supposedly because I was too young to get any decent work time in, but I think the fact that I blew the whistle on one of the managers telling a racist joke had more to do with it. Then my senior year of high school I worked for Target and watched less adept people who came in after me getting promoted while I worked on my vacations from college. Finally, after a certain team leader got to me, I went to work at Meijer. I did third shifts after realizing how much I couldn't stand working second shift there and stuck with it until I left for Taiwan where I currently teach English to preschoolers and elementary students. Meanwhile, I worked during college, starting with my sophomore year (again) to help earn money for my study abroad in France. Eventually I worked up to being a dining hall student manager. I also did freshmen orientation skits and was a graduation usher the summer before my senior year (while working at the dining hall), working 28 hours a week by my senior year. I love the fact that I get to use my loves: teaching, foreign language, music, and creative writing in my job of teaching ESL.
