The Story Of My Life
BY KRISTEN LEE
Present
Right now, I am living in a house in Charlotte, North Carolina with my, husband, two children, and yellow Labrador. Currently, I am working at Reedy Creek Elementary School as an art teacher. I am 32 years old, I grew up in Freehold, New Jersey and moved out to North Carolina 5 years ago to start a family. My life has been like a dream come true since I was 13 years old. Keep reading and I'll tell my story!!!
My Career
Ever since I was little, I have always wanted to be a teacher. Something with helping kids and watch them grow through the years make me happy. I love my job, being an art teacher, seeing children's creative minds work through art.
What is important to me?
- family
- friends
- grades
- my job
- my students
- clean and organized
Money
I make about $50,000 a year. My husband and I both successfully work close to home. We moved down here, to North Carolina because the taxes were rising so much back in New Jersey.
SWOT
Strengths-
- responsible
- creative
- organized
- a little impatient
- my education
- wondering if people like me as a person
- economy
Education
I went to Peddie High School. Then after I went to Princeton University and got my bachelor degree. I got a full time scholarship, I majored in art, and I ended up in the same job I am doing today. Princeton has been my dream school forever and I am so glad I chose it.
When I was 13...
I had so many dreams like:
- become a teacher
- get excepted into Peddie
- get excepted into Princeton
- get a full scholarship to Princeton
- have two kids
- have a successful job
- BE HAPPY
What have I learned
In the beginning of this year, I wanted to be a softball player and live in New Jersey. But now, I'd like to be a teacher and live in North Carolina with a family. This year, PFLSS has shown and made me realize what I'd like to do in the future. It's good to plan everything out, even if you don't know if you are sure it will happen. I know for sure that in the future, I will always be happy!!!
Thank you Ms. A!!
