What are some things you'd want to know about me? Well first, I am 18 years old and an upcoming college sophomore. I was born with the will to succeed. I love to go to amusement parks, out to eat, and take walks around the park, but I can also enjoy a simple book reading indoors. I am a non smoker and drinker, my health is very important to me. I love interacting with children, and I love the idea of knowing that a young lady or gentleman will grow up to be the best person they can be because of skills I have taught them. I have a bubbly personality that relates to all people of different ages, however, I know how to be assertive when I need to be. I haven't had much chances in life but hopefully you'll want to get to know me further. I can't wait to hear from you soon.      Valid Driver's License: No  Has a Vehicle: No  Can Swim Well: No  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets: Yes  Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: American  Background Check: Yes  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice:         Work Experience & Education Background   0 years experience, 2 references I have volunteered at a senior citizen's home for a short period of time.
