I am here for Friends

About Me

Basics...I'm a student at the UW, working towards a Bachelor's of Science in Microbiology and minors in Chemistry and Music.I have my own project in the most amazing research lab. My boss asks me everyday if I've made him famous yet. One day, I will finally tell him, "Hell yes I did".I love to hang out with my friends, read, go to the symphony and jazz shows, and bake lots and lots. ;)

My Interests

Interests? I love The Godfather. I've read the book maybe five times all the way through. I am deeply in love with The Godfather movies. Just Part I and Part II. Part III does not exist to me.I love football. Not that soccer shenanigan. (Although I do say that David Beckham is one nice piece of work.) I mean to say that I love the excitement of September. Dan Marino, Joe Montana, Brett Favre, and Tom Brady head up my list of favorite QB's. Marino vs Montana if they had otherwise equally talented lineups? I'll take Marino in heartbeat.Baseball? Hell yes. Griffey come home?NBA? Yes. College is cool, but I only pay attention for Draft Day.

I'd like to meet:
