About Me

Hey so its me, Rachel, on my own (& with the support that only family and good friends can bring). I'm still figuring out who I am exactly, but one day I looked in to the mirror and realized I wasnt happy so changing that became priority numero uno. Although I am in Ohio right now I am heading back to NC for the school year in August so that I can attend one of the most interesting (in the good kind of way) places I have ever attended, UNC. I work at Panera and hopefully they will have me back in a few months, if not-- I'm sure it will all work out for the best.

My Interests

Statistics (more on the applied side of the spectrum), epidemiology, biostatistics, art, architecture, food, learning to cook and ballroom dance (not necessarily simultaneously)

I'd like to meet:

Everyone-- no need to be ambitious, right?

Music:

Whatever is on my IPOD and the glorious selection that Jess has introduced me to that is Sublime. Jimmy Eat World - Bleed American will always be a favorite, as will the soundtracks of The Lion King and A Goofy Movie.

Movies:

The director of Juno and Thank You For Smoking can do no wrong as far as I am concerned, so anything he works on is up there.

Television:

Lost, How I met your mother, Heroes, Iron Chef, The Simpsons, Greek (as much as I wish I didnt like it).. and so on.

Books:

Twilight, Jane Eyre, Candide, and the Oddyssey are my latest reads.

Heroes:

Known simply as Riverbend, a 25 year old girl living in Iraq and the only girl writing about it on an online blog. http://riverbendblog.blogspot.com/

I'll never be the one to let you down.

Rather ironic... is there a good kind of irony? or a bad kind?
