Brandi Alyssa Lemon
The Short:
I'm a Knitting Nerdfighter with a Biology Degree. Believer in the impossible and the fantastic. Oregon raised and Kentucky educated.
Who I Am:
I'm a silly 2011 graduate of Berea College. I left school with a biology degree and dreams of going to graduate school, maybe doing some research, and eventually teaching high school biology. Instead, I've been jobless since graduation, lived in three different states, and bummed beds from friends. My luck has changed though! I'm the newest English as a Second Language (ESL) teacher at a Keynes English School in Gimhae, South Korea.
What I'm Blogging About:
This is my attempt at letting people know what's going on while I'm gone (or getting ready to go). When I get there I'm going to be (hopefully) doing some videos, lots of pictures, and showing what life's like in South Korea. Posts will be spread out until I get closer to leaving, but I'll post things I learn or want to share.
Fun Facts:
Born August 21, 1989 in Portland, Oregon (That makes me 22)
Hometown is Burns, Oregon
3 siblings (one older brother, John, one younger brother, James, and one younger step-sister, Destiny)
I've lived in four states and two countries so far (soon to be three)
-Oregon (born and raised), Kentucky, North Carolina, and Louisiana
-Queensland, Australia (studied abroad in 2009)
My Likes:
Writing, doodling, fiction books (sci-fi, fantasy, mystery, general fiction), photography, Harry Potter (huge Potterhead), coffee, rice, noodles, sushi, pie, lots of fruit, lots of veggies, cookies, cheese, pistachios, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, let's just say lots of food, knitting, cooking, baking, coloring, cool colors (blues, greens, and purples), movies (comedy, some chick flicks, sci-fi, fantasy, adventure), listening to music, gaming, biology, and the list is still growing.
My Dislikes:
Smoking, high heels, cherry pie, jackfruit, starfruit, physics class, ink on my skin (guarantees no tattoos for me), statistics, non-fiction books in general (there are very few I've read and liked), and rap music.
