I am here for Friends

About Me

What can I say? I'm definitely a nerd...but I've found recently that we all are about something. I love playing video games and board games with my friends and I love making new friends!I just transfered to Western oregon University and I really like it so far! Visit me if your interested in attending WOU...You can crash on my floor and I'll show you around!I adore my friends!Outdoor School is a major part of my life! I try and take the things I learned, and the feelings I feel at ODS and apply them to my life in the real world. I was Yo Staff again this year, and it was once again one of the most rewarding things I've ever done. I always come out changed, recharged, and closer to the person I want to be. I help fundraise throughout the year, so if you ever feel like pitching in and helping raise some extra money for ODS, let me know!I absolutely LOVE theatre, I just did my second show with Tillamook Association of Performing Arts (TAPA) . The first show I did with TAPA, I was cast as a lead: Princess Winnifred in Once Upon a Mattress. It was rediculously fun and a great learning experience. This summer I played Meg in "A Lady Named Jo" which is an adaptation of the novel "Little Women." Meg is a smaller part than Fred was, but it's much different from anything I've ever done, so I learned a lot. I was just recently turned down for a part in my college shows (40 people auditioned for 12 parts...So I wasn't that upset) and am Wardrobe assistant for one of them.
I collect earrings, I have over 375 pairs. Don't worry, very few of them cost over 5 dollars!

My Interests

I like video games, reading, playing board games, writing, watching movies, crafting, taking pictures, seeing plays and musicals, being in plays and musicals, learning, dancing in my living room, and general shenanigans. Being with my friends is the most magical thing I can experience.

Pretty much only Showtunes these days. A little Five Iron Frenzy if I'm feeling nostalgic.

I LOVE Space Balls. Mel Brooks freakin rocks! I'm also a Star Wars fan. Sense and Sensibility was amazing... I really enjoy the X-Men series. I enjoy any good comedy and definitely a good musical!

Jordan has forever ruined the way I eat pizza.

Funny story. So, a few days ago I was at the store and I, on a whim, picked up a couple boxes of Totino's frozen pizzas. Last night, I was watching Kid Nation (one of my sad, I-don't-have-a-night-life...
