I'm wondering if nothing has changed, what's stayed the same?

About Me

-Third Year at UCSB. Go Gauchos!-Reading-Soccer-Running. Especially with my giant dog, Potter. But it's more of him running and me being dragged along.-I love my family and friends with all my heart.-School, School, and more School.-HARRY POTTER, heck yeah!-Traveling-Movies-The ANAHEIM Angels. haha-Having adventures with my crazy friends-Ancient Rome and Greece(maybe that will help explain my major)-Medicine-History-Ballet...Bitches-Intelligent, organized, and obsessive"Life travels upward in spirals. He who takes pains to search the shadows of the past below us, then, can better judge the tiny arc up which he climbs, more surely guess the dim curves of the future above him."-anonymous-"If any one faculty of our nature may be called more wonderful than the rest, I do think it is memory. . . The memory is sometimes so retentive, so serviceable, so obedient - at others, so bewildered and so weak - and at others again, so tyrannic, so beyond control! - We are to be sure a miracle every way - but our powers of recollecting and of forgetting, do seem peculiarly past finding out." - Jane Austen

My Interests

Soccer, Ballet, Track, Harry Potter(hells yeah), Getting into Medical School, Running wild with my dog, Reading, Traveling, Playing with my neices and nephew, kicking some butt at playstation, crocheting (I know very grandma of me), fathoming the depths of historical mysteries, and making fun of Jessica.
