About Me

Create or get your
very own MySpace Layouts That's a good question..well, besides the obviously good hair? :D Currently? Well, school has begun..let the frustration begin! But, I do secretly love it. I guess now it's not so secret, huh?!! This summer has allowed me the opportunity to fully appreciate, be completely confident and passionate about this path I've set up for myself. I'm also working VERY hard by training for the GR 1/2 marathon. I am by no means a fast runner, but, with my sister's unwavering support and my friends' encouragement--and a great pair of shoes!--at 8am on October 28 I'll be pounding the streets of GR! :) Home | Browse | Search | Invite | Film | Mail | Blog | Favorites | Forum | Groups | Events | Videos | Music | Comedy | Classifieds

My Interests

This changes on a weekly basis... mspobj type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never"

I'd like to meet:

Wonder Woman. Definitely. I loved her growing up. :) Shoot, throw in Superman, too. :D Real people? That list is "long and distinguished" and includes me, about 5 years from now..

Music:

I *heart* U2. And the boys that represent D-Town. Young Elvis, too. Heart..I have so many of their songs on my iPod! mspobj type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never"

Movies:

My DVDs range from chick flick to Lord of the Rings. (I can't stand Harry Potter or blood bath movies.)

Television:

Seinfeld/Family Guy is my type of humor and I love Scrubs. (Ahhhh! It's going into its last season!!) That JD (that's what my peeps call me) character is so goofy. Coincidence?! I *heart* Colbert Report, too. And reruns of Fresh Prince..they were so silly! mspobj type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never"

Books:

Now that school has begun, I'll be 'reading' some exciting educational psychology literature and other texts I spent a stupid amount of money on. I did pick up, "Why Darwin Matters" for fun. Yes. I *heart* being a science nerd. mspobj type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never"

My Blog

2h 6min 1sec

That was my official time for the GR 1/2 marathon! (Which calculates to a pace of 9:37/mile)! I told my mom to expect me around 10:10a (we started at 8am), and I hit the finish line before my goal!! M...

The land of Meijer and CRC

Oh, to be back in the land of Meijer and a CRC on every corner. How I have missed it! Here, at least, bartenders know to serve Oberon with an orange. And there are not entire stores dedicated t...

Home& I cant say where it is but I know I'm going home

I can't take credit for that line. Pretty great, though. "Home" is a feeling I have been without for a while; I'm literally sickened by the big emptiness that permeates my apartment. I'm exhaust...
