Started Subbing
Working as a substitute teacher has also really shown me what I want to do with my future. If you asked me a year ago if I would ever teach I would probably laugh at you, but I absolutely LOVE it.

Some theories say that turtles can live forever, but this just is not true. Injury, predation, and disease will eventually kill them, but some turtles can live up to 150 years.
