Hi, I'm Kara! I'm 20 years old and a student at Central Michigan University. I'm a Spanish major and Bilingual/Bi-cultural Education Spanish and Reading in the Elementary Grades minor and am going for K-12 certification. I'm involved in Campus Girl Scouts and various volunteer organizations on campus.
I work for an after school program called PEAK (Partners Empowering All Kids) at a local elementary school. This is an absolutely awesome job - I love the kids, all the people I work with and all the experience I'm getting in a school environment. It's amazing!
What do I like to do?
I'm a Girl Scout and love participating in our Campus Girl Scout troop. I hope to get a position to co-lead a troop this year!
Recently, I've been volunteering for the Bush/Cheney campaign... but it doesn't matter to me, readers, what your political leaning is, just that you go out and vote. Do your civic duty!
I also enjoy participating in the Project Adventure program. I love to climb, rapell, and zip down the zip line. I was a Project Adventure leader for 3 years at my high school, which meant I led peers through the Project Adventure program. Including climbing, oh yeah....
Other than that, I enjoy reading, travelling to other areas of the US and hopefully someday the world, meeting new people with interesting personalities, visiting art exhibits, Girl Scouting, shopping, learning new things and living life to its fullest!
