Yeah, I loved just the overall atmosphere and vibe of the people out there.

I'd love to visit California one day, sounds like my kind of city TBH.

If you lived in a post-apocalyptic world and were thrust into a leadership role and every choice you made was life or death, would you follow your head or your heart?

You can't answer both.

Darn it, I wanted to answer both.

I don’t feel like I have a head designed for survival in a post-apocalyptic world, so I guess I’d have to follow my heart.

Anywhere a 100-specific convention was happening. So I’d go to Unity Days, Spacewalkers, Dystopia, etc. in addition to Conageddon.

Or Disney World. I’ve been there 7 times, but not since 2007.

I'd love to go to Disney World.

It’s awesome. I mean, the food alone . . .

I’ve never been to Disneyworld, only Disneyland.

What are some of your big teaching goals for this year? What are your overall career goals?

One of my goals has actually been to be more open about mental health with students and to discuss it with them and create an environment where it is something we can talk about. Most all of them this year know that I struggle with anxiety. It’s been a good atmosphere, and I hope that they’ve been positively influenced to remove the stigma from it. At least a little bit.

I’ve also tried to run a better study hall. And it has been better.

Overall career goals? Hmm, hard to say. I’m doing what I love already. I’m not one of those teachers who is desperate to get my masters (though I should take another class.) Honestly, my overall career goal sounds cheesy, but it’s always the same: to have a positive impact on young people and their lives.

That’s great, April. Sounds like this year is really good with your students.

I’m not desperate to get my masters after this, tbh. Maybe one day, but I’m not hell bent on it.
