Singled Out: Elementary Teacher Seeks Authenticity
I was at The Coffee Bean (yes, again) and spotted Shawna, a down-to-earth upcoming schoolteacher with a penchant for helping kids…and a strange and complex adoration for Nicolas Cage.
On the heels of the recent shocking Casey Anthony verdict and whilst we are all trying to figure out which juror was paid off and by whom, we still have people in the world that want to help Shawna Nicole is one of them. With her unusual love for Nic Cage flicks and her truly spotless relationship history, this local seems to have the world at her fingertips. And as another great , Annie Sullivan, once said: “Keep on beginning and failing. Each time you fail, start all over again, and you will grow stronger until you have accomplished a purpose - not the one you began with perhaps, but one you'll be glad to remember.” I guess you learn something new every day…
