I am from a small town in the Catskill Mountains called Preston Hollow, where the population is about 100. It’s a very small, country town, with nothing really to do. At home I live with my mom, my sister, and our dog. I have an apartment close to St. Rose where I live with 3 other girls.
I don’t really have too many obsessions. I love little kids so every chance I get to go home I visit my 5 year old cousin. I can’t wait to become a teacher and get to work with kids more often. I like being outside as much as possible, just keeping busy.
Some hobbies I have are watching movies, bike riding, hiking, and cooking. I never was into cooking until I moved in to my apartment and didn’t have my mom to cook me dinner every night anymore. I really enjoy cooking now though. Some things I still enjoy doing that I was very much involved with in high school are sports, mainly volleyball and softball.
I have two jobs. First, I work at The Cheesecake Factory. Second, I work at School’s Out, a before and after school program in Delmar.
One thing that I am very proud to say that I know how to make is quilts. I made one a couple years ago for my boyfriend’s father who was sick at the time. I like to make quilts with my mom and like to make them for other people.

Michelle,
A fellow quilter! Well, I’d like to call myself a quilter but I’ve only made two of them. When did you learn how to quilt? What do you like about quilting? What kinds of patterns do you use? As you can see, I have lots of questions. This could make for a fascinating personal essay film topic…

Population of 100? wow, I thought I came from a small town. But I’m sure it was great- I know the Catskill area is very beautiful. Maybe for your film you could do something on small town life and what you do to keep yourself busy, or maybe you could do something on working with children.

I could not imagine living in a small town. I was brought up 10minutes out of albany. I think its pretty cool that you got into cooking when you moved into your apartment. I never got into cooking (even when I moved into my apartment). I am an awful cook. Lastly I give you credit for working at the cheese cake factory… everytime I have been there it has been packed!
