Real Lives

It is interesting to read or learn about people's lives outside of the gaming realm.  Sometimes people tend to forget that people aren't just the gamertag.  There are other things behind that gamer tag, including a real person, with a real life, and real problems.

I always find it interesting to read about those that I play with.  To find out about their lives and who they are away from the machine.  So since I enjoy it, i am going to pretend you enjoy it and tell you some information about myself.

My name is Amy and I am the oldest of 2 in my family.  Some of you got to meet my brother last night.  I am 31 and he is 27.  My father is a minister and my mother is an adminstrative assistant to the Superintendent of a school district near us.  I was born in Louisville, KY and then started the moving around 4 years old.  I have lived in Kentucky, Missouri, Texas, and now New Hampshire.  I have my Master's degree in Special Education and Elementary Education and I am currently a special education teacher for grades Kindergarten to 2nd grade.  I am the one that is called in for extreme behaviors and have dealt with many violent children in the past (and yes, even at that age they can be violent).  I greatly enjoy working with those students and I love my job.  

I own a black Chevy Cavalier, that is paid off, and just this past summer, bought a 883CXL Harley Davidson.  It is AWESOME.  It was used when I bought it from Harley but it had everything that I wanted.  It had Mustange seats, a leather piece for the tank, removable saddle bags and specialized pipes so that it is loud.  I LOVE it.  My brother got me into Harley's when he bought his Anniversary edition last year.  I took the safety course before I bought it to make sure I had the coordination to drive a bike. 

I am a HUGE fan of the Boston Red Sox and went to my first game this year and then was able to go to a second.  There is NOTHING like going to a Sox game and if you live in the area and you haven't....then go.  Being there is an amazing experience.  I am not a football fan though.  I have Patriots stuff and I will watch a game if I am passing through the room but I can't sit and watch it.  Don't get it, don't want to.  To me it is modern gladiators without the final death or skimpy clothing....so I see no reason to watch. :-P

I am currently single.  I think that is because I am anti social and don't like change.  Or so I am told. -shrugs- Whatever. -laughs-  I do have a cat though named Bella who is spoiled and antisocial like me.  She loves me, I love her....others come in and she runs.  A lot like me.  Whoa. 

I love movies, old and new.  I LOVE to read and love the Dark Hunter series and the new Twilight Series.  I love to game (duh) and greatly enjoy writing. 

So that is beasically me.  Hope I didn't scare you guys. :-)  Have a great one all.
