- 30 'Things' about Miss Stien
30 'things' that might surprise you
-
- My fingers literally ache at writing or typing the word "thing" so I always put quotation marks around it. I feel a little better then.
- If you ask politely, I will show you video of me on a horse herding cows into the rodeo chute while yelling "Yee haw, Bessie!" while in Mississippi a few years ago.
- I will retire in Cape May, New Jersey, the most beautiful place on Earth. I also will never have to pump my own gas ever again which is an added bonus.
- I have mad ninja typing skills. If I were ever forced to enter a talent contest, this would be my talent.
- My favorite color is red.
- I am implementing my School Improvement Project (the new TEAMs!!!!) through Ashland University this year which will then finalize my Masters in Educational Leadership.
- I'm allergic to any animal with fur and pretty much anything that is green and outdoorsy.
- My dog Gracie, a Schnoodle (Schnauzer and Poodle mix), is adorable.
- When I was in sixth grade, I wanted to be either a professional figure skater or a veterinarian. If you want to know why I'm not a veterinarian, please look at #7 again.
- The reason I'm not a figure skater is because I have only skated twice in my life, the first of which was when I was in college. I remember falling a lot and being cold. You might say I was a little unrealistic in sixth grade.
- I pretty much listen to all music except for folk.
- I am a Jackson Local Schools graduate (go Amherst!) as well as a Malone (Bachelors) and Ashland University (Masters in Curriculum & Instruction) graduate.
- I love to travel to historical settings or locations with mountains. It saddens me I only have three stamps on my passport.
- Millennium Force is the best roller coaster at Cedar Point. Hands down.
- I absolutely love old clear glass “stuff” especially if it is cut or etched. Vases, bowls, spooners, candy dishes, compotes, you name it. I honestly don’t even know where to keep putting all of it.
- I collect paper. Maps, wrapping paper, old tickets or receipts, business cards, etc… and then create mixed media art with it.
- Wherever I travel, I always bring back a book of poetry from a local writer.
- My idea of heaven is being able to read all day long outside on a blanket under a tree.
- There would also be unlimited chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream with no fat or calories under the tree on the blanket.
- I have never played a video game in my life. Ever. Of this, I am proud.
- I was so obsessed with biting my nails when I was a kid that I bit all of the nails off my baby dolls. True story.
- I am at heart very shy. So shy, that my 3rd grade teacher Mrs. Tamargo actually called my parents in for a conference in the spring because I still didn’t talk to her.
- When I was in third grade, I played school with all of my stuffed animals. My parents' bed used to have a ledge attached to the headboard and that was my podium.
- I cannot swim. I will not put my face under the water. I will drown. I know this.
- Feet are gross.
- Clowns are creepy.
- I've never played the Guessing Game at Cedar Point, but I know I would win because few people can guess my age just looking at me.
- I was the kid with her "nose in a book.” Anne of Green Gables transported me as a child; a new favorite is The Secret Life of Bees.
- I don't understand why people jog when they hate it so much.
- Remember Elaine dancing on “Seinfeld?” I could have been her stunt double.
