About Me

I love the beach, music and hanging out with friends! Now that I got the standard intro out of the way. . . there's not much else. I am a student at Cal State Northridge. It's close by, and convenient for now, but there are better schools I'm interested in attending. But, I have a ways to go, so I'm enjoying my time. I also work for an afterschool program through the local school district. The hours are short, but the pay is decent. The kids are good, for the most part, so it works for me. I come from a very large family, which makes life interesting since it is pretty much guaranteed there is some event planned and there is never a shortage of people. I like hanging out with friends and having a good time, no matter what we end up doing. Anytime I can go out is usually a good time. Movies, restaurants, shows, anything really. I like the idea of not having a set plan. It's usually nights like these that end up being the most memorable. I like trying new foods, too. I've also recently gotten into diving. It's amazing what you can find just off shore. It's an entirely different world down there. My brother is a musician. He's really good. Just scroll down and check out his music.
