10 things you don't know about me

My dearest darling students: you have no idea who I am.  You think you know, in fact, you even like to tell me (in an extremely flawed manner) about my own life.  So, in an effort to show you that I am not the person you think I am, here are 10 (from a list of about 100,000,000,000) things you don't know about me.

1.  I went skydiving for my 20th birthday and will do so on every cardinal birthday from now until I die.

2.  I am the most talented multi-tasker you will ever meet.  I watch TV and listen to the radio at the same time on a regular basis and can juggle more than you'd ever believe.

3.  I am now, and will always be, the only professor in your life that grades things from one class meeting to the next.  Even if the turn around time is less than a day and even if what I'm grading is a series of long, error-riddled papers.

4.  I am a pageant girl - I've competed in 5 states, 3 systems, and I'm not done yet.

5.  I base my outfit on my shoes and get dressed from the bottom up.

6.  My goal in life is to be an FBI Special Agent...and yes, I am on my way there.

7.  I am probably the most observant person you'll ever meet.  I can tell you things about your own life, very detailed things, that would probably scare you.  Don't underestimate me.  I can see what you're doing when I have my back turned and my ultra-sensitive ears can hear your silly little conversations about things that have no business in my classroom.

8.  I hate winter holidays.

9.  I don't believe in extra credit.  Welcome to life biotches.

10.  I can always find the answer.  You should always start with me, it will save you time in the end.
