I am Brooke from Houston TX. I teach freshman English and Reading in Houston ISD. I am also the sponsor for the Milby Chopper Club, where we are teaching kids how to build motorcycles and then offer them scholarships to college or trade school. I am also the school's 504 coordinator, after school tutor, unofficial tech assistant, baker, mother hen, and mother bear. I have 210 children this year, about 600 more from previos years. At least 50-60 of my old babies come to see me every week (constantly having to kick them outta my room so they will go to their own classes) and for some reason they call me on the weekends.

If you can't tell, work is my life. I love to read, write, cook, and bake. Most of my skills are directed at making my kids lives a little easier, a little happier, and much more successful.

My stress revlievers are VV and FT.

My free time (what little there is) is spent studying science (esp quantum theory-go figure), messing with motorcycles, playing video games, and helping take care of my handicapped mother when she has bad days. I live with my parents because we don't like leaving mom alone when dad has to work nights. She has a tendency to catch things on fire when she is tired and doesn't pay attention to what she is doing.

I used to have a dog, but we lost him last year. Still haven't recovered. We do have one (slightly evil) cat, Emily, who is spoiled silly. I have two goldfish, Mohawk and Faux, and a turtle names Loli who is currently at my best friends house while I babysit his turtle, Don. I need to rebuild my other tank after a minor fiasco clamined the lives of two fish and Stinky the Snail. *sniffles*

No children. No husband. No worries.
