About Me

Welcome! Hello everyone. I’ve decided to change this up a bit, so here goes. I’m just a regular girl who is trying to fulfill her dreams and have a little fun along the way. I'm an avid music fanatic who will undubitably travel across the country to see my *favorite* band, drive in states I’m not familiar in, and take road trips just for the hell of it, that is, when I get a free minute or two from my sometimes hectic and crazy schedule. I’m very down to earth, easy to get along with, honest, and just plain awesome with a good head on her shoulders, so I’ve been told =). I have the greatest family and friends anyone could ever have. They have been supporting and advising me since day 1, and everything that I am and will be because of them. I have 3 pets that I ADORE, who have the tendency to annoy my mom sometimes, but at the end of the day they are the loves of my life, regardless of what anyone says. I am currently getting an education in hopes of becoming a physician, specifically a forensic pathologist and/or a neonatal pediatric surgeon, and with determination, restless nights, ambition, and perseverence, I will find a way to make it happen. Life has taught me to be stronger and more aware of the world around me, and to that I am grateful. I’m a language freak, with four under my belt (English, Spanish, French, and Italian), and with any spare time on my hands, would love to conquer another language (I probably get this from my dad who is currently fluent in 8). Accents fascinate me, immensely. I have a love of cosmetics, MAC specifically, because they are amazing and make me happy. My wallet tends to hate me each time a new limited edition collection is released, but I’m trying to manage! I have to have a hobby right?!? Insects and bugs creep me out! I’m also an avid reader, of the classics mostly. Currently, however, I’m stuck reading science and chemistry texts for school. The hopeless romantic in me also enjoys reading cheesy Harlequin and other romance novels that crack me up endlessly!! After fulfilling my professional endeavors, I would like to travel the world, Morocco and India mostly, because I’m infatuated with their culture. I would even consider retiring there in the future. I love anything that is purple and has polka dots! I look up to people who are independent, selfless, honest, and to those who are trying to make a difference in the world. I’m trying not to take myself too serious these days and try to enjoy the simple things that life has to offer, those that, even I, at times take for granted. I’m only 4’11 so I doubt that I am intimidating in any way,(other than my Napoleon complex. =)

You know who you are.
