Africa, talking to other people and explaining why I am passionate about Africa, freaking out about how much I love life, Jesus because He redeems all things, thrift-storing, freshmen and watching how much they mature by the end of the year, theater (mostly musicals, but anything really), falling asleep reading, falling asleep anywhere (except in class. I hate that but do it anyways.), learning languages (Spanish, Java, C, C++, I know. Want to learn ASL, German, Italian, French, and... anything else anyone wants to teach me), learning about people, baseball, running through the eucalyptus groves, soft-serve ice cream, the view out my dorm window, Google, nuzzing, Dance Dance Revolution, Coastline, procrastination, bright sneakers, bright colored anything, snapple pink lemonade, buying books that I won't have time to read for at least a year, Christmas, eating lots of sugar (but not chocolate. mostly stuff with lots of pure sugar and food dye. Like rainbow sprinkles.), Canyon Vista dining hall, cereal and newspaper in the morning, Spider Solitaire, my little sister
