I am here for Friends

About Me

I procrastinate...a lot. I usually run on Cuban time, although I am getting a lot better about being on time and *gasp* sometimes I'm even early! whoo-hoo! I'm a full-time student, I work at book-store [which is by far the best job I've ever had], and I'm the secretary for PRSSA on campus. Lately my free time has been sparse, but when I have some I enjoy reading, surfing the web, and spending time with my boyfriend, family, and friends. I consider myself something of a paradox, and if you don't understand, that it's okay- you soon will. ;) "I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by." -Douglas Adams "You may think problems only happen when there is a conflict-not true. When you’re working with the public, you’re not only going to have to deal with real problems, you’re also going to have to deal with imaginary ones. The world is filled with people who have issues that you will never see coming." –Norm Feuti
