Jess

I am 23 years old. I love to hang out with friends. I am in Phi Sigma Pi (its a co-ed honors fraternity not a social greek). I enjoy spending time with my family, especially my niece and nephew. My goal in life is to better others' lives in every way possible. I have a sponsored child in the Philippines; her name is Andrea and she is 6 years old.
I'm from a very very small town in Pennsylvania. I graduated from Tidioute High School in 2002, graduated from culinary school in Punxsutawney, Pa in 2003, did my externship at Pinehurst Resort in Pinehurst, NC in Fall 2003, and now I am a student at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. I am double majoring in Nutrition and Child & Family Studies. I finally get to graduate in December 2007! Not sure exactly what I want to do in life though...

there's an emptiness inside her and she'd do anything to fill it in but all the colors mix to gray and it breaks her heart
