About Me

College graduate ... MAN that sounds so weird.... I went back-packing through Croatia for the month of June and then was here and there between the East and West coast just for fun. I don't know what I'm going to do with my life but I KNOW that I want to stay up in San Francisco so ... whatever it is that I have to DO to DO that then well- it shall be done. LIIIKE working at the PT Center that helped me recover from my knee AND ankle injuries :) SOO besides work, when I'm in the city I just try to hang out and explore SF over the weekends. I'm still into all kinds of sports even though I don't play for school anymore. I had minor ankle surgery in Jan. 07 & I hope to get back into some heavy training... I fucking miss it.I studied abroad in the spring of 2006 in Croatia and I've already back packed with a friend to Budapest, Bratislava, & Prague over the summer. Then I spent three weeks with my American family traveling along the Croatian coast and visiting my family in Klobuk. I can honestly say that I have grown from this experience... ... ahh so what am I doing with my life now.... ahh?I'm sure that you've figured out I'm an english major, and being long winded I write a lot. If this is bothersome I'll slightly oblige and apologize. With that being said; I know I'm no Miss Spears, but I would hope that I've @ least got a personality and a sense of humor to make up for it ... hopefully.Ahh I always feel awkward trying to talk "up" myself but I like to: surf, listen to local bands, work out, dance, & people watch. People always tell me that I'm : "Fun to be around, down to earth, & genuine" I'm a pretty chill gal who has a strong family foundation and equal confidence in my capabilities as a human being to create a happylifestyle. Are you from the Bay Area & sick of all the identical personality cut outs? Hit me up man! One can never have too many friends or connections!

My Interests

Take the quiz: "What kind of Croat are you?"

Your a Slavonac/Slavonka!
You love Croatia, kolo, having fun, and drinking. Fields and mountains remind you of Croatia.Volleyball, my Hrvatska heritage, English/poetry/gender studies/creative writing, and then when I asked my friends what they thought was my number one interest besides my sports they all responded "black guys" and I find this hilarious ... tickles my soul actually. Then what else? There's fitness, TRAVELING, surfing, dacing, collage art, athletics in general like hockey or rugby, clubbing, Alfons Mucha, hard alcohol, acting sarcastic, ocean/beach, Croatia, Thai food, SAN FRANCISCO. Being your caring and responsible designated driver and making sure you arrive alive.. Trying to learn all of the cases and non stable grammar rules of the serbo-croatian language ... o bo..e...ent-zadar CHECK OUT THE FAMILY'S WEBSITE!

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who can carry a conversation, has and open mind, and demonstrates a good heart. Croatians, Bosnians, Serbians, Brazillians, whoever. Surfers, skaters, playas, whevea's I'm a social butterfly and I never know where my wings will take me next so say "hi", take off your sandals, and stay for a beer!Well cheers to all the single people out there. I don't know what I'm after right about now but I'll just go with the flow ... Edgar Ramirez .... o bo..e the sinful thoughtsI pretty much don't know what I'm doing with my life and it's rather apparent so I'm just looking for friends and so glad to be connected with mah old ones. USFCA FACEBOOK.

Music:

............................................................ .......................................... width="425" height="350">.. .. ..>My family would make fun of me for liking Stoka but HEY!I'm telling you... the techno, turbo folk, and JAMACIAN REGGAGE are the big hits here in Croatia it's weird. But before I LEFT the states I got really into Death Cab for a Cutie, My Chemical Romance, and of course Jack Johnson. But like I said.. Y'all need to go to sarabmusic.com and check this new girl out. She's like the gf of John Mayer and the little sister of Jewel. Since I've lived in SF for three years I got really into the hip-hop, rap, r&b kinda thang so I appreciate it and dance to it. but I'd have to say that since I'm from SJ my heart will always start with rock. Stations in the Bay: 104.9, 105.3, 106.1, 94.9, From heavy metal to hip-hop, reggae to rap - just don't expect me to respect country... please... I'll agree to disagree on this one.

Heroes:

.. width="425" height="350">.. .. ..>Wonder Woman, Mr. Eagleson (my 8th grade English teacher), Coach Curtis, (my volleyball coach who took my team to nationals twice to win a bronze and gold medal), Ms. Ippolito, Mrs. S, Mr. Phillips, Ms. Ray, Ms. Bonanno (some of the best teachers I've had @ Pres. who believed in me~ you were right, I made it to college... though barely), Mr. Reyerson (the math genuis who took all those hours to tutor me in Statistics), John Artukovich (my Dede who lived the ultimate American dream and made a life for himself and his family), my Baba and Grandma who have dedicated so much of themselves to their families are yet still are so brilliantly classy, my entire family really... on both sides, my mom and my dad's. Being away from them now, I mean I knew it then but, I can just really see how unique and special they all are. On both sides f my family everyone gets along. Not only is the idea of a "small" family completly foreign to me but "not getting along" just doesn't cut it with all of us and how we work. I am so grateful to have such an loving and incredibly extensive family, and though it may sound corney especially my Da <3
