About Me

Hmm, what to write, what to write. Ok, well my name is Janice and I'm 22 years old. I'm a grad student at CSUF, working on my MA in anthropology (I study primates and evolution, and that sort of thing), and I love this field... if only it paid the rent. Hmm. In a nutshell, I'm a small town girl stuck in Orange County where it seems impossible to get away from people and cars and lights. I really like my school, but I can't wait to move some place new. I love nature and animals and traveling and exploring. I'm really shy at first, but the more you get to know me, the louder I get. I like working really hard and tend to be really competitive at everything... because I like to win (but who doesn't, right?). I have two jobs right now, and am really pushing the limits with how much I can balance on my plate. I have my girly moments, but if you tell me I can't lift something or do something because I'm too short or too small, or because I'm a girl, I will prove you wrong (I know that's a random thought, but it's one of my biggest pet peeves!). I want to go everywhere and see everything and do everything. I like volunteering and being politically active, because how else can we change the world for the better? Well, there's of course so much more I could write, but then we'd have nothing to talk about. So, if you're interested in any of the same things I am, or even if you're completely different than me (I am an anthropologist afterall, and find everyone fascinating), feel free to say hi. In general I only add people that I know, so no random friend requests please.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I feel so lucky to have met Jane Goodall (chimps), Birute Galdikas (orangutans), and Dave Foley (my favorite Canadian). Those were the three (semi) famous people I most wanted to meet, but there are definitely many more great, interesting people out there. As far as non-celebs I would love to meet anyone with interests similar to mine. If you're interested in primates, conservation, exploring new places, outdoors, or anything fun, then I might just want to meet you!

West Wing clip that everyone should watch

Be careful about judging others just because of what it says in the Bible... If you have faith, that’s great, but think before you criticize.

Borneo and Sumatra Pictures and Stories!

Bad news for those of you who were hoping I would go be adventurous once and get it out of my system.  Despite the leeches and spiders, the spicy fried food, the heat, the humidity, the lack of t...

I get it

It's taken me twenty years to figure it out, but I think I finally understand the thing about love.  I have figured out why love is something both dreams and nightmares come from.  I don't ...
