When I have free time, that is what I enjoy doing. My specialty is apple pies. I pick apples from my uncle's mountain house, make a bunch of apple pies, and share them with my family. In addition to apple pies, I love baking and decorating birthday cakes. They don't always look like I envisioned them to, but the taste is always pretty good. My apple pies usually look like the one in this picture.]]> 2017-08-31 16:09:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/183999964 mkd1440 https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184000727 Family is important to me. I have 4 siblings: 2 sisters and 2 brothers. I'm the 2nd oldest. I spend a lot of time with my younger siblings and try to be a role model for them. We get along really well, but sometimes they are so annoying. No matter how annoying they can be, I still love them and treasure our time spent together. I don't know what I would do without them.
This is a picture of my family. It's not often that all 7 of us are in the same picture.]]> 2017-08-31 16:12:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184000727 mkd1440 https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184002154 My mom's side of the family is Irish. My dad's side of the family is German, Italian, and Irish. I got all of the Irish genes. I am pale, have freckles, and get sunburnt on a daily basis, well at least everyday in the summer. Here is a collage of my cousins and I celebrating our Irish heritage on St. Patrick's Day.]]> 2017-08-31 16:16:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184002154 mkd1440 https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184003535 Be the best you can be]]> 2017-08-31 16:19:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184003535 mkd1440 https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184004240 I value honesty, commitment, dedication, and hard work the most. I live my life with these values in my mind and try to act upon them everyday. Not only do I see these values in me, but also do I look for these values in my friends.]]> 2017-08-31 16:21:56 UTC https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184004240 mkd1440 https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184111315 I was raised in a Catholic family. I attended a small, Catholic school until 8th grade, when I graduated with my class of 18 students. Growing up in a Catholic family and small, Catholic school taught me to value my beliefs and helped me grow into the person I am today.]]> 2017-09-01 00:15:40 UTC https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184111315 mkd1440 https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184112208 I am an elementary and special education major. I cannot wait until the day when I become a teacher. I love helping children. It's what I do! I've grown up babysitting, coaching, and working as a childcare provider for children with disabilities. It's my passion in life, which is why I am choosing to become a teacher.]]> 2017-09-01 00:24:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184112208 mkd1440 https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184112544 One tradition of mine is spending holidays with my family and cooking special treats for all of the holidays. I make Irish Potatoes for St. Patrick's Day, Christmas Cookies at Christmas, and chocolate covered pretzels for Valentine's Day. Then, I share them with my family as we celebrate and spend time together.]]> 2017-09-01 00:27:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184112544 mkd1440 https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184112853 I am a lover of nature. Taking walks, looking at the clouds, watching the sunset, and everything else about nature makes me happy. Up the mountains, I love going on hikes and finding creatures. I added in this picture of a little toad I found when I was up the mountains this past weekend! It was so cute!]]> 2017-09-01 00:30:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184112853 mkd1440 https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184116468 I've always tried my hardest and aimed for straight A's, but sometimes that is not the case. I've learned to accept my grades no matter what the letter is, because I always try my best.]]> 2017-09-01 01:06:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mkd1440/xm4iug0vb0do/wish/184116468
