About Me

MyGen Profile Generator um... where 2 begin I go to OHS, have very restrictive parents, and enjoy high adventure activities (mountain biking, water sking, rock climbing, etc.) I am a smart blonde. (Talk about an oxymoron.) I love airplanes. I want to be an aerospace engineer or an economist when I'm older. I plan to attend A&M next year on a scholarship.
I know a lot about politics. I support Ron Paul in this election.
I just completed my second and final year in Decathlon. We advanced to state both years, and I was lead honors both years. I was co-captain the second year. My second year I scored over an 8000 at both the region and state competition
I'm in scouts, yea it's cool, we do a lot of high adventure and it teaches you a lot. I just finished my second term as lodge chief and my only term as CVC of Arrowman Discovery for the section. I am currently vice-chief of communications so I edit the newletter.
I've worked as a lifeguard at Odessa College and Buffalo Trail Scout Ranch. I have also done an internship under DemiDec. I will be working at OC again this year. I like to travel and I've been to Europe and Australia, as well as places all over the US.
I am LDS, more commonly known as "Mormon".
I am a member of BPA which is pretty much an excuse to get a trip every year. I competed two years in HTML and in my final year I competed in extemporaneous speech. This year I advanced to nationals, so I'm looking forward to an awesome trip to Reno..
