About Me
- About Maleiah
- Biography
- I have a hard time describing myself. I tend to ramble on and on and I never really know if people catually care about what I'm saying. But here goes anyways:
I like to play. Goofing off and just having a good time are my preferred activities, though its hard to do by yourself and so I am always seeking company.
I have a wide variety of interests, but a cursed lack of motivation and focus keeps me from really excelling at any one thing. Its very frustrating.
I love music. I listen to a wide variety of genres always have something in my head. My favorite band is Streetlight Manifesto, and I tend to listen to a lot of ska. As for other genres, reall anything other than super heavy metal, rap, and country is fine with me, and I do make exceptions sometimes.
Performance-wise, I like to sing, I have a piano, violin, guitar, tin whistle, fife, and panpies, none of which I really know how to play but all of which I intend to learn someday at least.
I really enjoy arts and crafts. At school I studied drawing, painting, printmaking, and ceramics. I am also very interested in photography. I've developed a small collection of cameras, now all I need is access to a darkroom... I learned how to braze in a 3-D design class, so I'd like to start making some sculptures and things. I made a lamp once, it turned out pretty cool, I just wish I knew how to do the wiring.
Craftwise, I enjoy beading/jewelry-making, knitting and crocheting (which I need to learn more about), and I would like to learn how to sew so I can make my own clothes (it is very difficult to find things to fit me in stores). I'm sure there are other things I have or would like to get my hands into also, but I can't think of them right now.
I originally went to school as a Fine Arts major, but the whole deadline thing just doesn't sit well with me so I switched my major and am now planning on becoming a high school English teacher. - Location
- I live at home, with my mom, two sisters, younger brother, and our small zoo consisting of two small dogs and a rabbit.
- Interests
- Reading and websurfing are the most common, but I also dabble in drawing, painting, photography, writing, crafting, playing, listening to music, etc.
- Occupation
- I currently work at a tutoring center with preschool and kindergartners. I teach them letters, sounds, decoding, counting, and sometimes adding.
