About Me

KARAOKE THURSDAY NIGHTS! U KNOW IT KATIE! Jason - ur comin soon!! ;-)
For those of you who are involved in my life, you know that I am going a different path than most people my age. It's hard, but fun and rewarding at the same time. I will be done with graduate school in a year and onto my job as a speech pathologist specializing with children on the autism spectrum. While I do like to go out on occasion, it does not define my lifestyle. I like to put others before myself. My job as a behavior therapist is tough but amazing as well. You go home either feeling like you had a really tough day and you wish you could've helped the children more, or "I can't believe I get paid to do this"... it is so amazing to make a difference in so many people's lives. My school practicums are amazing as well and let me know that I chose the right profession. I get to help both kids and adults pretty much every day. Along the way I have picked up some private clients on the side because I have amazingly been able to help them in a way that others couldnt... I dont know how, but it is incredible to know that I am making a difference in these children's lives. I know I sound like I am going all Mother Teresa on you.... but I am just so happy with where I am right now that I think it is great to share and maybe motivate others to start livin their dreams now instead of waiting until they get older. Love you all! If you want to talk more my IM is kris10kiss ;-)P.S. Please don't message me with the typical guy "You're hot" stuff... not cute... and SO not interested ;-)

My Interests

Karaoke Thursday nights with Katie, Nancy, and the gang! Crazy times girls ;-) - then of course our regular weekend outings as well! Honestly, I love school and working...it makes me feel like I am finally getting somewhere in life. All my jobs have me working with children, and they are so innocent that it is impossible to not love my jobs! Other things I love: Clubs (dancing), friends, movies, pools, outside, hot tubs, beaches, and vacations!!!

Movies:

By FAR my fave is HOLIDAY! Then I also have some classics like: Cinema Paradiso, Spanglish, Lorenzo's Oil, A Beautiful Mind, Rain Man, and anything else that has a true story behind it and makes you think. Amazing movies.... img src="http://img168.imageshack.us/img168/9562/ghettotwinit5.j pg"

Television:

Recently yes REBA. Grey's Anatomy, Without a Trace, E.R., Standoff, Brothers and Sisters, and I am hooked on the discovery health channel....I love watching the before and after plastic surgery, mystery diagnosis, and diagnosis unknown! OF COURSE FRIENDS AND SEX AND THE CITY!!!

Books:

I just love to read everything. I am a nerd at heart, and I love it! My faves are Kite Runner and Thousand Splendid Suns, Harry Potter series, Power of One, Clan of the Cave Bear series, all mystery murder novels. I love to read anything that will make me become a better speech pathologist, or to improve my knowledge of behavior therapy and autism.
Who knew it was genetic???!

Heroes:
