[Jeemi]

Hey everyone, I'm new here, WTC and really excited to learn from you all until then.


Name: Jaimie (but where I live they pronounce it Jeemi)

Age: 28

Location: somewhere in the Middle East

Occupation: uni professor, author, Christian

Short Personal Description: been living with my husband in the Middle East since 2013, living the expat life, turning into a bicultural person, hating some things and loving others but am definitely being changed by the process. I’m finishing my PhD and am eagerly awaiting my last class (either this fall or next summer) until we can begin TTC. Since I travel back to the US for class intensives, I figure I better get that out of the way first. (Die, academia, die!)

Favorites: contemplative moments, deep thinkers, a long harmonious chord that twists your heart, prayer, holding hands, realizing that I don’t need to buy anything to find happiness.

Hobbies: cooking, crocheting, writing

Color: soft, classy pink

Food: whole foods plant-based diet since 1997 (and blood tests look awesome)

Hang-out: someplace quiet in nature

Music: give me harmony. A capella. Polyphonic. Neoclassical. Just let there be great harmonies.

Books: I already sound nerdy enough. Do I really need to confirm it? Well, since you asked. Christian theology, anthropology, sociology, psychology, and history.

Cartoon Character: I have a colleague who says my personality reminds her of a cartoon character, but she can’t remember which one. When she remembers, I’ll tell you. But I think it has to do with my mixture of bookwormishness and very emotional and expressive nature.

Digging Deeper:

Country You Wish To Visit The Most: believe me, tourism is overrated. After a while, every statue and every monument and every beach starts to look the same. I can’t wait to go home to the USA and settle down.

Most Influential Person in Your Life: God, my husband

Greatest Ambition: to be a mother

Biggest Achievement: overcoming severe clinical depression (woohoo, 16 months free!), learning to cope with clinical OCD and anxiety

Grandest Wish: to raise an emotionally intelligent child who is happy to be alive
