About Me

Hello everyone! I am currently a senior at Chapman University in Orange, CA. I spent a semester abroad in Prague, Czech Republic and it was absolutely AMAZING! I was challenged and stretched beyond my comfort zone and learned so much about myself and what I am capable of with God's guidance. The Lord truly blessed my time there and I am so thankful for the experiences I encountered . If you want to know more details, just ask! Besides loving school, I also love JESUS. Not only did He give His life for me, but I want to live my life to glorify Him. I'm a liberal studies major with my concentration in dance. I want to teach elementary school someday and enjoy working with youngsters. I love to smile and make people feel welcome; however, I'm usually a shy one when I'm the newbie and the one being introduced. I enjoy being by myself from time to time- quiet, personal time is really important to me. I'm a total girly-girl; my favorite color is pink, I like to wear dresses, I enjoy baking goodies and I work at a Bridal Shop. I'm definitely a family gal-my mom is one of my best friends and I love hanging with my lil' bro. I look forward to the day when I can be the adorable little wife who just wants to love on her family and take care of her husband and kids. I LOVE surprises and trust God with all the ultimate surprises of my life.Myspace layouts and so much more from whateverlife.com! ♥

My Interests

God has certainly instilled a love for dance in my heart. I especially enjoy ballet and am currently trying some new styles such as jazz and modern. I also enjoy being with the people I love, reading, writing snail mail, baking, Disneyland, tea-time, journaling, smiling, sunny days, taking walks through Old Towne Orange, quiet time, meals with friends, surprising others, really getting to know people, and rejoicing in the life God has given me!

I'd like to meet:

I'm not really into meeting people online ... Myspace is pretty much for my own convenience of staying in touch with already existing friends. Sorry! However, if I could go back in time I would love to meet Audrey Hepburn, previous generations of my own family and of course, Jesus; but I'll meet Him in Heaven one day anyways, so all's good! :)

Music:

Chris Tomlin, John David Webster, MercyMe, Bebo Norman. Any classical or oldies. The music I'm dancing to at any given time in my dance classes. "When You Say Nothing At All" by Ronan Keating.

Movies:

50 First Dates, Pirates of the Caribbean, Chocolat, Return to Me, The Red Violin, Pride and Prejudice, Something's Gotta Give, The Holiday

Television:

When I actually watch some TV... the Food Network (now I just need to put what I've seen into practice, ha!)

Books:

Heroes:

Christ-"No one comes to the Father except through me." And I certainly admire my amazing mom for all the ways in which she has and continues to give selflessly as a working, single parent. She truly depends on the Lord for her strength and its been an awesome testimony to me throughout my life.
