About little ol' me
Researcher Jolietristan Started conversation Aug 3, 2001
This is probably not interesting at all to anyone but me. You can skip this bit if you want. I'm a person who can't spell (especially the big words), I like to learn about other cultures, and places around the earth. I enjoy reading sci-fi/ fantasy, sci-fi, mysteries, detective and spy books. I am "helping" my daughter in learning how to read and do math and art. Since her Public (Gov't run) school doesn't do the job to my satisfaction. Hence, the bit i submitted about the home-schooling in USA.
Places I have Lived:
I live in Georgia (right now) but I love to move around. Always have. I like to see new areas of the US/would like to see a lot more of the world too, I have been in several states.
Here is a list-probably not a full list:
Minnesota, North and South Dakota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri, Nevada, California, Idaho, Oregon, Utah, Arizona, Virginia, New York (visited the city), New Jersey, Florida.
I also was lucky enouph to be able to go to Japan. Where I "taught" conversational english (american style) to some Japanese Women for a few months while my ex was stationed there.
Places I would like to live/go and see:
well, Alaska, Germany, England, Ireland, Egypt, Iceland, Scandinavia and Russia. Places that either my family came from originally or that have so much history/mystery that I just can't shake that wonder lust that runs through all "researchers".
My biggest passion right now:
Is Geography.
In specific:
Cultural Geography. I got the bug from one of my teachers at Minnesota State University-mankato campus. It is so interesting to me! I also enjoy learning about all the different religions around the world, since that, I think, has a lot to do with how we do other things in our lives. Don't be afraid to leave me a note on just about any subject. I will let you know if I don't like it.
I need to thank someone who helped me with this guideml thing.
I appreciate it a lot!! Taliesin- I do have to admit, i just copied what s/he re-did for me.-
Don't forget to always have your towel handy!
