About Me
CURRENT MISSION
''Just because you didn't win, doesn't mean you don't know how to score.''
ABOUT ME
I am currently studying Criminal Justice and International Studies in Copenhagen, Denmark at the Danish Institute of Study Abroad. I have been away from home since August and have learned so much from all the adventures I have encountered. I have met some amazing people along the way and discovered my love for Europe through the process.
I am very outgoing, passionate, creative, studious, responsible and sincere. There are not very many things that tend to scare me, but when something comes up that does, I am very willing to give it a go!
Other than traveling I also enjoy:
Reading, Writing, Bon Fires, Listening to Music, Hanging out with Friends, Laughing Until My Stomach Hurts, Drive-In Movies, Beaches, Partying, Talking, Muffins, Chocolate Chip Pancakes, Sunsets, Chocolate, Fruit, Gymnastics, (Any sports), Dancing, Walking In The Sand & Grass Barefoot, Watching Movies, Getting Dressed Up, Big Cities, Being Pampered, Thunderstorms, Photography, Sleeping In, Sledding, Spring, Going To Broadway Plays, Musicals & Ballets, Vacations, Yoga, Cruises, Camping, Swimming, Puppies, Camp, Exercising, Singing, The Color Purple (& Orange), HAVING FUN!, and Of Course Meeting New People
Some things I don't enjoy very much include:
Ketchup, Homework, Mondays, Stress, Snobbs, Bees, Being Sick, Really warm weather, Awkward moments, Being nervous, taking notes (at school), cigarettes, waking up in the morning, liars, insincere people, people who talk behind other peoples back and bad days.
PHILOSOPHY
One of my favorite quotes, which also happens to be a philosophy I live by is,
"For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never be alone."
-Audrey Hepburn
