My Interests

I love to travel and it would be a dream come true to win a trip around the world. I'm hoping that sometime before I graduate I can manage a semester studying abroad. And then there's cooking, which is my art. I can't sing, paint, sculpt, or even play and instrament but my hands work wonders in a kitchen.........even April's :)

I'd like to meet:


You Should Get a PhD in Liberal Arts (like political science, literature, or philosophy)
You're a great thinker and a true philosopher.
You'd make a talented professor or writer. What Advanced Degree Should You Get?
You Should Drive a Ford Shelby Mustang Cobra
You have an extreme need for speed, even when you're not in a hurry.
And while your flying by, you don't want to look like every other car on the road! What 2007 Car Should You Drive?
Your Dosha is Pitta
You have a quick mind, a gift for persuasion, and a sharp sense of humor.
You have both the drive and people skills to be a very successful leader.
Argumentative and a bit stubborn, you have been known to be a little too set in your ways.
But while you may be biased toward your own point of view, you are always honest, fair, and ethical.

With friends: You are outgoing and open to anyone who might want to talk to you

In love: You are picky but passionate

To achieve more balance: Be less judgmental of those around you, and take cool walks in the moonlight. What's Your Dosha?

Music:

I really do like a little of everything .... The Eagles, Frank Sinatra, Santana, Sheryl Crow, Aretha Franklin, Three Doors Down, Smokey Robinson and The Miracles, The Temptations, The Four Tops, The Beach Boys and more!

Movies:

My favorites that I could watch over and over again are Grumpier Old Men, Shawshank Redemption, The Young Philadelphians, Casablanca, Pillow Talk, Sabrina (the original), The Inn of the Sixth Happiness, and Gone with the Wind. Yes, you have noticed a pattern. The movies I love tend to be from an era when movies used good acting and plots instead of violence, sex, and special effects to grab and hold onto people's attention.
The Movie Of Your Life Is A Black Comedy
In your life, things are so twisted that you just have to laugh.
You may end up insane, but you'll have fun on the way to the asylum.

Your best movie matches: Being John Malkovich, The Royal Tenenbaums, American Psycho If Your Life Was a Movie, What Genre Would It Be?

Television:

Northern Exposure, JAG, Gilmore Girls, NCIS, The Daily Show, and The Colbert Report. A newly discovered addiction is practically anything on the National Geographic Channel.

Books:

Anything by Roald Dahl ......I know he is a children's author, but he will always be my first love. Sense and Sensibility, East of Eden, The True Believer by Eric Hoffer, Kate Chopin's various works, Watership Down, and of course the classics.....George Carlin's books. A recent, but very important addition is the Gender Knot by Allan Johnson.

Heroes:

Anyone else who stands up for what they believe despite its popularity.
