About Me

Create your own friendquiz hereMy name is Erin Colleen, but I have many nicknames. The original spelling of my last name is Ã“ Duibhginn, which is badass. Too bad it's spelled "Deegan" now.
I'm a Junior at Marshall University as a Public Relations major, and I really love it. I just changed my minor to Accounting over the summer, it was Photography. "Why?" you ask? Accounting is far more interesting to learn about, and has fewer burnouts. I've made the Dean's List twice. That means I'm probably smart.
I've been told that I am kind, interesting, fun, and several other positive adjectives. Although some people are douchebags and say otherwise. Hearing rumors about myself annoys the piss outta me, but makes me laugh that people need to come up with that shit.
I've completely changed in the past year, i.e. "grown the fuck up." Pardon my French, but c'est vrai. I'm much more optimistic about my future. One thing I'm most looking forward to? Getting out of Huntington. I like staying busy, so sitting around on a day off really sucks for me. I'd rather be out doing something.
I love my friends, some of them are the greatest people I have ever met. I know I always have someone I can call and a shoulder to cry on, and I am extremely thankful for that. People that bring out the best in me tend to be my friends for years, and many of the friends I have now will be my friends for (hopefully) the rest of my life. I used to care what people thought of me, but as of now I don't care so much. I've gotten to a point where I can finally speak my mind about things, and I love that feeling. Even when I get strange looks from people who think (know) I'm just being weird.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anderson Cooper, I have a massive crush on the guy, and reading his book "Dispatches From the Edge" just intensified my love. Such a hard worker, go-getter, and intelligent person. *swoons*I would also love to meet Ellen Degeneres, Tyra Banks, Steven Colbert and Demetri Martin.Gotta love talk show hosts, journalists, and comedians.AND OF COURSE!!! My military boys! I had pictures of Schrader, Roby, and GQ on here, but realized I have so many more military friends (like Brooks) that it's kind of unfair to only put 3 of their pictures here. I'm gonna have to make a big banner for all of them! 33
