About Me

I was born in Seattle in 1987, moved from Queen Anne to Ravenna to Green Lake, and then realized after a year at the University of Washington that I needed to leave!!! So I packed my things into my Subaru and headed down to Austin, Texas. I love it beyond belief, there is always something happening, it's sunny most of the time, and when it's not, it's still awesome!!! I couldn't afford out of state tuition though, so I came back up to finish at UW. I'm double majoring in Comparative Religions and Near Eastern Language & Civilization, taking Arabic and loving it! I used to sing and play guitar a lot, cut a demo, but didn't do much with it, although I'm hoping to get back into it. I love traveling, which I did a fair amount of this past summer, and intend to do more of next summer, heading to Yemen and other places, which will be awesome!!! I intend to get back to Austin as soon as possible, I love country music, sunshine and swimming, so Austin is the place for it!! I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
