ABOUT ME

I'm just me. I am passionate about life, and don't want to miss a single crazy moment of it. I am the known as the "mom" of my group of friends. I have a passion for Architecture which just happened to be my chosen career field. I love the arts and am an amateur photographer; I love to sketch and took up painting again recently. I love to cook and experimenting with new recipes. I love to travel and hope to travel as much as I can exploring unknown places whether they are in your backyard or on a different continent. I love to learn new things, I feel if you stop learning you stop living. I'm a huge geek! I enjoy reading and had to downsize my physical collection with a nook. I enjoy playing video games on a rainy day. I enjoy going to plays, concerts, movies, festivals, parks, and museums. I love to dance, I have even danced in the rain a time or two. There's more then this to me, so feel free to ask and just know, I’m just me.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life is like a camera
Just focus on what's important
Capture the GOOD TIMES
Develop from the negatives
and if things don't turn out
- just take another shot."

Music, Movies, and Books

Enjoy movies a lot, but my love is horror and action movies much have a storyline/plot or I just can't walk away from it. I listen to all types of music, but locally I usually listen to Y98 and love acoustic covers on song (Y98 has a Acoustic Sunrise on Sunday mornings). Books - I am in two book clubs and read 1-4 books a month depending on the time of year. My favorite books usually fall in the fantasy/sci-fi/horror genres, but I have read others as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a semester studying in Prague in college - best 4 1/2 months of my life!
