My powers are beyond your mortal imagination

About Me

500 characters to describe me...hmmm, this could be interesting. I am endlessly chasing adventure, thrills and excitement. LOVE spontenutity, loud music, singing in the shower, cheerios, my dog tabby (she's a Chow), swanky dance clubs, BOYZ (well just ONE boy!), building sand castles, dancing in the rain, camping, jumping on trampolines, pez (I collect them), wakeboarding, exploring, books, hiking, text messages, cotton candy body spritzer, biking, smiles, slumber parties, photographs, laughter, soccer, perfume wars, pink pajama's, dreaming, people, racing through Wal-Mart on shopping carts, clubbing with my mom and sister, holding hands, mountains, the lottery, spontaneous road trips, spicy thai and mexican food, chirping crickets outside my window, yellow, drinking water, sunshine, monkeys (I am going to have a spider monkey), beaches, mangos, watching the sun rise and set, flipflops, travel, daffodils, angels / fairies, playing guitar with Gabby, finger painting, crayons, sleeping, spitting watermellon seeds after church, barefeet, spiky hair, chilling with my family, eating soggy shredded wheat (yeah gross I know - but i love it), kids, karaoke, staying up all night talking on the phone, kissing during movies and skidding down wet bleachers at soccer games...Life.
Born and raised in Logan, UT -- then moved to Idaho which I currently call "home". Chilling in Winston-Salem, NC going to school with a bunch of girls - lovin' it. Want to become an Osteopathic Physician (DO), specializing in something (not sure yet). I eat dinner at the same time my grandparents do. I hate elevators so always take the stairs. I wear flipflops with socks in the winter, just to make a fashion statement. I can talk about anything, and for hours. I don't wear makeup, and am comfortable in sweats and a t-shirt. I am very crazy, my friends say thrilling and random. I'd like to think of myself as inspiring and unique (just like everyone else). Love trying anything new and very adventurous. Belong in the mountains or playing in the ocean = anywhere warm and sunny. Real outdoorsy type (but not granola or hippy), just down to earth. Hate clothes and prefer my swimsuit or pj's (ya know what I am talking about Shawong). Want to go skydiving, rock climbing, and travel around the US and world. Always have fun and willing to try anything new. Learning to play the guitar. I laugh insanely, kiss slowly, love passionately and forgive quickly. I don't believe in mistakes, only mis-steps. Everything in life happens for a reason, and I strive to make the best of it...hmmm, am I at 500 yet?!?
leave me a comment, please. they make me smile :)..

My Interests

Constantly updating. I am skipping my junior year and will be graduating in the spring of 2006. Then it is taking a year off to adventure in a service mission either abroad (Jet Program or in the country with RISE or Americorp it all just depends). Then off to graduate school. Yet again, my life ambitions have changed a little. I stil wish I were majoring in boys, but I think I chose the wrong school for that. I am actually double majoring in Psychology and Biology, and minor in women studies. I have seriously been considering MPH/MSW programs, although I want to get my PhD so that I can eventually be a college professor. Plus, the sound of "doctor"... just joshing. I am interested in public health, women's health, eating disorder research, and social work.Life is going great. Carson and I have been really blessed to have each other and love laughing, playing settlers of catan (the best game EVER), watching movies, cuddling, running and just being goofy together. I am having a great summer although I am not at all ready to return to the mill of scool. But I know that when it starts I will be excited and be able to experience loads of opportunities. I will be Frem co-Chair, VP of Habitat for Humanity and active in cross-country and every other crazy thing I can say yes to...like Lehman Scholars Program, independent psychology research, training for another half marathon, tri-beta, women & science program...I stay busy
just ask my roomie of last year. above my bed is a MIA sign. Hopefully it won't be like that for Sujana. What else...I want to travel around the world. Love to learn and serve others - Mother Theresa is my hero. Desire to travel, meet people, experience life and be crazy. Have no expectations, only pure satisfaction and joy from living.

I'd like to meet:

Looking for amazing, intoxicating, intelligent people. Real people, that are down to earth and have real ambitions. A cute boy to bring home to my mom. I love making new friends, but I prefer quality over quantity! Drop me a line. Wishful thinking...Boys who play guitar and/or drums, and sing. BUT I am not boy crazy! I swear...cause I already have one.
