I'm doing it different this time around :-)

About Me

My name's Maritza, known to many as Ritz Cracker or just Ritz, and I am a junior at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, studying civil engineering. My friends are a huge part of my life, both at home and at Rose. I like playing tennis quite a bit--I play on the team at Rose. I'm always up for bowling too, but I'm really not any good at it. If you're really all that interested in getting to know me, just send me a message, because there is no way you can really get to know me just from one little blurb I wrote about myself.

My Interests

Music:

rock, oldies, Christian contemporary, some rap, some pop, some Latino

Movies:

Dumb and Dumber, Zoolander, Old School, Van Wilder, Major Payne, Wayne's World, Anchorman, Strange Brew, Robin Hood: Men in Tights, Legally Blonde, Revenge of the Nerds, Pirates of the Caribbean, Forrest Gump, Wedding Crashers, 40 Year Old Virgin, Italian Job, 10 Things I Hate About You, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, the list goes on and on and on...

Television:

I am addicted to Heroes and The Class!

Books:

Ha! I don't read! That's why I'm at an engineering school...such a silly question...

Heroes:

Jesus Christ

My Blog

Coming back with a new attitude :-)

 I've decided what the difference in my attitude and motivations this year is going to be. Last year I was always driven by what everyone else was doing. I always wanted to be doing what everyone...

Is it really July already?

Well no, actually, it's not. But it will be on Sunday! I can't believe it. I've already been out of school and working for a month. I'm actually at work right now, but they literally have nothing for ...

I believe, uh, diversity is an old, old wooden ship that was used during the Civil War era.

You know, having gone to school in Terre Haute, Indiana, for the last two years, I've completely forgotten that there's this thing out there called diversity. I was reminded that such a thing DOES exi...

It's the little things...

It's amazing how you can know in your head and your heart what is right, yet still not be doing what you know is right. Ok, no, I'm gonna stop speaking in general "you" terms and start manning up to t...
