About

Hey there! And welcome to my slice of the internet.

The name of this blog came from a friend of mine in high school who decided to tell me that I would be great girlfriend material (to the guy I was crushing on at the time) if I wasn’t so fat. It’s kind of become a little bit of fuel that feeds the fire of my self-confidence since then.

I mostly write about rainbows and butterfly topics – my “Just for Giggles” tag is bursting! I try to stay upbeat and sassy, but sometimes seriousness happens. I tend to write a lot, I apologise. Thursdays are reserved for posts 300 words or less, but sometimes that just doesn’t happen.

I have three degrees: politics, religion, and education. If you happen upon a serious post, it will most likely be about one of those three topics. I used to be a teacher, first in South Korea, then in Ontario, then back to South Korea. Yeah, I know, make up your mind already! But now I’m a nanny – probably the best job of my life!

For those of you stopping by for the first time, there are a few things you need to know. First of all, I used to think I had polycystic ovary syndrome because of I have alopecia and hair growth on my face/shoulders (means this girl’s got a wig (Doris) and she’s gots to shave every. single. day) but then some tests happened and it’s just DNA…Lame. I talk about this as my “hair situation” frequently. I also didn’t want to have kids but after finding out I don’t have PCOS now I kind of do? The emotions ya’ll…

If you want/need more information give this post a read. But definitely pop over to my Disclaimers page, and make sure to follow me on Twitter for even more craziness @noluvforfatties

    • I am licensed to teach k-6, I am DEFINITELY more of a kindergarten teacher and I had started to get my specialization there. I have extra training for kindergarten, ESL, and special ed. Right now I’m in Korea teaching English at an after school private academy 🙂 So really I teach everything and anything! Just not math, for the love of sweet baby Jesus not math!

        • It totally is! I’m only technically licensed to go up to grade 6. But this one time I answered a call for grade 7/8. Once I answer a call, if I decline then I can be penalized for it, so I had to take the job. It wasn’t TOOOO bad. but then I had to do a review period for math. No biggie, I thought it was going to be ok, but then someone asked me to help them with solving for X in some crazy question. I just looked at the book and was like “sweety, I’m sorry you’ve got to ask your teacher when he comes back tomorrow. I have no idea” lol then my brother taught me how to do it via email later that night, which I now forget hehe.

  7. A heartthrob in my high school told me once that If I wasn’t a small girl he would like me to be his girl. So what can you say about that? I just laugh it off but now I am definitely had the last laugh. 🙂 Cheers!

  11. Thanks for liking my post about education. I can see from your own log that you are a professional educator. Good for you. Teachers are doing the most important of all jobs. I don’t have a problem with maths. I used it throughout my career ass an Engineer. But it I fully appreciate that many people find it hard to grapple with and that’s okay.

    • Thanks for dropping in and leaving a message. I am technically a professional teacher however its in a non-traditional setting. I have so much respect for teachers who work in publicly funded jobs. I couldnt do that!
