My Interests

"I thought how unpleasant it is to be locked out; and I thought how it is worse, perhaps, to be locked in."Virginia Woolf
You Are Surrealism
Dreamy and idealistic, you've created a world that is all your own.
It's very likely that you've either dabbled in drugs or are naturally trippy.
You are always trying to push beyond the boundaries of your culture and society.
You believe that art, love, and freedom can change the world. What Art Movement Are You?I love nature.I spend most of my time w/ my 2 great kids. It's fun to party w/ my friends, too.I've been trying to spend time studying lately, but I am easily distracted.Eating healthy food. Learning to push myself beyond all my comfortable boundaries. There is a 5K out there w/ my name on it...Being a good person, I hope.Travel. In Feb, I went on a cruise w/ some girlfriends. See photos, LOL. I can't wait for the next trip, but college is taking up all my spare energy right now.Yoga, music, practicing my Spanish, art, history, physics, homeschool activities w/ Cora, reading, doing stuff outside. Cooking. I wish I had a green thumb... I am going to work on that this spring.Studying anthropology, and now TEACHING anthropology at the homeschoolers co op.MMA/UFC, from an anthropological perspective, of course.Wish I had more time!I've also got 2 cats and a snake Here's Catfish...The snake is called Squeeze...

I'd like to meet:

All the people I have been friends with! I miss you guys :-)--------------------------------------------------------- - I'd also like to meet any one who's been in the archaeology field, or other anthropology students.--------------------------------------------------- -------I am currently trying to figure out where I am going w/ this Anthropology thing. I know I want to focus on East Asian/Siberian prehistory, but somedays that feels like a lifetime away. For now, I am studying, stateside, and looking forward to fieldschool.I am also hoping to try out teaching English in Korea; would be a great experience for my kids and probably good for us financially, too.
