About Me

-I am a loving and caring Pisces who is smart, strong, and independant...sometimes mistaken for intimidating for those weak guys out there. -My perfect Sunday is a day of football, beer, and friends. -I love dive bars, clubs, or just staying home to veg. -I'm confident, driven, and care a lot about my future. I am pursuing a joint degree in business and law, and hope more than anything to use my inate leadership skills to make a positive difference in the world of business. -I volunteer at Becky's House (with the kids) and am in the San Diego County Young Democrats -My pictures are my most prize possessions; I love documenting life and keeping those memories forever. -My parents are my number one Best Friends and the greatest role models one could have. -Unlike a lot of people out there, I loved high school, and not cuz I was most popular but cuz I had a great variety of friends, trusting parents that let me live, and a great town to grow up in. I cried, laughed, learned, and partied my way through "growing up". My only award was "Best Parties" my senior year...very proud. -I'm a planner by nature; I love getting everyone together for some fun times, weekend trips, or late night partying. -I have a stomach of steel that just won't throw up....which has led to some amazing victories in drinking contests back in HS and college. -Current nick names: Sta-bone, Stona, MonaCorona, and Moanskie. -I can be found gettin' down and dirrty late night on the dance floor with friends, relaxing at the beach, at the gym, or locked in my house relaxing. -I meet people easily and can talk to anyone -I am an open book, honest with my heart, and I let people in easily. I trust people with my feelings, and wear my heart on my sleeve. -My best friends are my world, and I don't know what I would do without any one of them. We are always there for eachother no matter what, support eachother through everything, and can just be stupid around eachother with out a second thought. I love when I see friends that I haven't seen in a while and we just pick up right where we left off like no time has passed at all. -I am always up for anything, unless it is dangerous. Unfortunately, I am not a big (physical) risk taker...no sky diving for this girl. I appreciate life, and don't want to get off this ride early.....I want to see what happens around this place. -Words I live by: Go Big or Go Home; Follow your dreams; Live Life to the Fullest; Stand up for what is right; and Love who you are -Quirks: freakishly organized, and kinda clumsy -Weaknesses: back massages, cheap drinks, football game parties, and clothes. -I love to laugh and have been known to go non stop for at least 15 minutes. I have a freckle on the tip of my nose that everyone likes to push and has been called my "laugh button" since high school. -I hope to keep smiling through life and end up an old woman with my husband of a zillion years right by my side, talking about the wonderful kids we have and the great life we have lived.

Music:

I like most all music, but Hip Hop and rap over all, especially to dance to...Black Eyed Peas, Missy Elliott, Snoop, Ludacris, Gwen Stefani, etc. And I will always love 2 Pac and old skool Too Short. I also really love The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, The Beatles, and Neil Young, for everything their music says and stands for.....and plus it is just awesome music for just hangin out. My favorite chill music is Bob Marley. I also really love music that gets you in touch with your emotions and reminds you of memories; like Alicia Keys and John Legend. And I am not a country hater, but I understand those who don't like it. I only like a select few artists, like Shania Twain, Dixie Chicks, and Faith Hill, who have all really crossed over at one time or another Music Video: WHERE IS THE LOVE (by Black Eyed Peas)

Television:

Family Guy; Seinfeld; Real World & Road Rules, and yes the challenges, too; Inside the NFL, NFL/Baseball Tonight, and SportsCenter; Grey's Anatomy; Sex and the City; and the Discovery Channel when they have something interesting (z)

Books:

I don't really have time to read a lot, other than studying for the GMAT...BUT there are books that I absolutely loved and would recommend- Little Girl Lost (Drew Berrymore's book), Memoires of a Geisha, Fast Food Nation, Millionaire Next Door (being wealthy, without being frivalous),The DaVinci Code, Underneath the Banner of Heaven (about those crazy paligamists in extreme Mormanism), and Girl Fighting (all about the psychology of how girls treat eachother)

Heroes:

Outside my family, my heroes include Jerry Rice, John Lennon, Martin Luther King, Albert Einstein, Olga Talamente (a freedom fighter of the 70s)....and so many more.... Within my family, first and foremost, is my parents, because they are both teachers; my mom in elementary school, and my dad in community college. Teachers have such a huge impact on lives, and they are both perfect at the different levels they teach. They also defeated the ugly word "divorce" and came together to be the best team of parents. They really kept us a family despite being divorced; made sure I always how much they loved me, and we are all stronger today for that effort. Together they are my rock on which I lean, and my best friends who I turn to for support. My Mom, the strongest woman in the world, taught me emotional strength, independance, and the ability to speak my mind without fear. She stands up for and defends what is right, helps the less fortunate, and participates in social causes all while enduring a lot of personal hardships. My Dad, has a brilliant mind, earned his PhD, and inspires me to be the best I can be in life. He has instilled values and work ethic in me that I use everyday. He is a full fledged Eagle Scout, making him "always prepared", and has made camping a normal part of our life. He is envolved in a lot of aspects of his community college, and cares about making a positive difference in the educational life of the students.Other heroes in my family are my grandma and grandpa(recently deceased). My Grandma went to college early, met my grandpa, graduated, waited for my grandpa to return from WWII, started a family, and then went back to school and became a University professor of political science. My grandpa joined the navy to support his family during the depression, faught in WWII, then went to Harvard Business School and became a very successful business man; investing in small businesses, dealing in patents, and heading up manufacturing companies in the tech industries. They are/were both highly active in their communities and always involved in politics. My grandma was on the board of directors that built the first science center in Cleveland, while my grandpa sat on the board of the Art/Music Institute. Their involvement in making a difference has and will always inspire me to be involved.
