About Me
My name is Ashley Fallo and I am from Biloxi, Mississippi. I am 20 years old. I am the youngest of three children, one of which being a half sister. I also have an older brother. I had lived in Mississippi all my life until college. This is my 3rd year at the University of South Alabama and I love it. I chose South because I wanted to stay close to home and South was the only school that was close without going to north Mississippi.I am very involved in my sorority. Since I have been in a Sorority, it has made me grow as a person and it is one of the best decisions I have ever made. I am an Elementary Education Major. I love working with children. I taught vacation bible school for 3 years as well as Sunday school. I have also been a substitute teacher at my old elementary school. I love anything that has to do with children. I have always wanted to be a teacher ever since I was a little girl. I used to always love to play school for fun.
I love to stay busy and active. I love to swim. When I say swim I mean swim laps. I was on a competitive swim team for 8 years and I loved it. I am also a very big music fan. I really hope to be able to bring music into the classroom. I have been singing since I was about 5 years old. I have performed at various venues as well as on stage with Kenny Rogers for his Christmas concerts. Music is one of my passions. I am also very active in my church. I am a youth group leader for about 40 teens and I love it. I love having people that I can impact and help.

Randy Pausch on Time Management.

I learned that you have to make to do list even know they might change. He said that planning ahead is a very good. It’s ok for it to change but it can’t change if you don’t have it. He also made a very good point to do the thing you don’t want to do the most first that way it’s out of the way.
