About Me

I'm a second year graduate student at Georgetown University. I love musical theatre - Phantom, WICKED, RENT, Beauty and the Beast, etc. I love reruns of great TV shows: FRIENDS, Sex and the City, Dawson's Creek, Avonlea, Buffy, Perfect Strangers, Saved By the Bell, and The Nanny. The only thing current I watch is How I Met Your Mother and whatever's on HGTV. I'm a big movie buff and I love to read and sing. I love to travel - I can't visit Colonial Williamburg, NYC, or Disneyworld enough, and I've to go back to Italy. I haven't seen Ireland, Scotland, or England yet, so those are next on my list. Pet peeves are lateness, lying, rudeness, and disorganization. I'm ridiculously afraid of spiders, clowns, and high bridges over water.

I'm not much for heroes, but the people I really admire run the gamut: Sarah Brightman for the amazing career she has and her sheer talent; J.K. Rowling for being at the bottom and turning one idea into a way to save herself and her child; Thomas Jefferson, for his genius and his flaws; Joss Wheadon for his incredible creativity; Dan Brown for his boldness, Louisa May Alcott for her inspiration and reminder of what really matters, and finally, teddy bears because they remind me to smile, to love life, and to always have a hug when needed.
