"To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget."
-Arundhati Roy
Let's see.....I love school. I'm finishing my bachelor's in Speech and Hearing Sciences and looking forward to taking off next year for a little R&R before starting graduate school to earn an AuD (a clinical PhD in Audiology - the diagnosis, prevention and aid of hearing disorders). I love my family and my friends - they're the most important things in the world to me (the dogs included in the family). I'm an optimist who believes laughter really IS the best medicine. My biggest pet-peeve is spelling/typing/grammar/punctuation errors (something I retained from editing newspapers and the reason my page changes on a weekly basis...it's a bit of an obsession...stupid Myspace!) next to people who take themselves too seriously (we're all too insignificant in the grand scheme of things). I think everyone should be humble enough to laugh at themselves. I laugh annoyingly loud...I know it, I just don't have any control over it. I love bubble baths (especially if they're accompanied by a good book), candy, rain, fall, pajamas, naps, animals, and my daschund puppy, Olli (who never fails to bring a smile to my face).
I'm also on Facebook , but I use myspace more.
