About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Continue to enjoy life

ABOUT ME

My name is Elaine and I would say that I am silly, friendly, easygoing, exuberant, sincere, open minded, and reliable person! I enjoy embarking on new adventures, especially if it revolves around visiting new states/countries and music. Dancing is something that I truly whole heartedly enjoy. I can go hours of just dancing and happily being stuck in my own little world. I am excitedly planning on doing my Masters degree abroad, don't know where yet, but will definitely focus on sociology/education. I enjoy going out, not picky when it comes to what to do. Overall, I'm just a person who enjoys good company and appreciating my time on this planet!

PHILOSOPHY

Hay que tener fe y deshacerse de la duda=
Have faith and get rid of the doubt
