BONJOUR! WELCOME TO STEPH'S 'MYSPACE' PROFILE!
My Space member since: August 13, 2006
ABOUT ME?!...hmmm...well I love all kinds of music & have over 300+ CDs in my collection (yes I like supporting the music artists by buying their albums!!!) & have over 6200 songs in my 'iTunes' library (the 30GB Video iPod I have is full!)!! I love movies as well & own over 200+ DVDs & over 100 on VHS! (None of which are burned or ripped off the internet btw!) I also love shopping 4 designer fashion items & Chanel cosmetics & hanging out with my friends (doing various activities!) I also tend 2 travel 2 Vancouver quite often 2 visit my good friends there & also attend music concerts & go shopping while I'm there!!
My Athletic Background: Well figure skating was my life(blood, sweat & tears)for about 11 years where I eventually qualified to compete at the Junior competitive singles level for the last few years. I also coached kids of all ages how to skate, competed on several synchronized skating teams (up to the National level), and also passed the highest levels in tests for all the different aspects of the sport possible(figures, skills, artistic, dance and freeskate)! I have also done gymnastics (9 years), swimming(9 years), track and field, karate, tennis, and all types of dancing all outside of school! In school I competed in track and field(long jump, 100m sprint, and 4x100m relay), and cheerleading(my team won gold in a competition in Vancouver although we were the smallest team there!) I also love working out, rollerblading, riding my bike for long distances or just to and from work, hiking, skiing, knee boarding and tubbing on a lake, and outrigger kayaking in my spare time. Plus I have a blast playing Disc Golf at my favorite family retreat location on Pender Island (which is in the Gulf Islands between Vancouver Island and the BC mainland where a ferry takes you to Vancouver) whenever I get the chance to go there!!!
My Musical Background: I've been singing from as far back as I can remember practically in church and then throughout the years in numerous choirs in and out of school and was in a gospel choir in 2000-2001 that was in my city's international Jazz festival during the summer of 2000. I started playing intruments with several years of piano lessons as well as playing the recorder and violin in elementary school. I then played the flute in my school bands for 8 years(plus 2 yrs of private lessons) as well as other intruments on the side like piccolo, chimes, xylaphone, bells, keyboard, and covered the guitar bass part on the keyboard. I took as many music programs as possible (concert and jazz band, concert choir, vocal jazz, career prep music, and pit orchestra for the musicals) and focused mostly on those throughout school.
Btw...feel free to write me a note in french or english since I'm billingual from having been in french immersion for 12 years in school!
