Jen & Tonic

No wishing on what ifs, I'm taking my chances.

About Me

In other news, I am an incredibly EXCITED college student, who is partially done achieving her lifelong dream of attending UCLA. But nowhere near done figuring out what the heck she is going to do with the rest of her life... Other than not go to law school.

Now that my competitve debate career appears to be over (no one will ever be able to top Catherine as a partner) I find that I am rather less argumentative... Which is minorly alarming, yet simultaneously refreshing. But I still don't have time for people who don't appreciate my special brand of sarcasm, as I have too many other people to have coffee/intelligent conversations with to get bogged down by those people who just don't get me.

My Interests

Debate, Politics, Mary, Dancing, and of course, my first love- Youth and Government

I'd like to meet:

Boys who will still be in my area code in 3 months! The Marcus Flutie to my slightly less melodramatic Jessica Darling. A boy who will sing Dave Barnes songs to me... and mean every word, or play them on his drums.

Music:

I LIKE COUNTRY- DEAL WITH IT!!

Movies:

Beauty and the Beast, The Princess Diaries, The Bourne Identity, Ice Age, Garden State, The Breakfast Club, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Riding in Cars with Boys, The Wedding Singer, Center Stage

Television:

The West Wing, Gilmore Girls, Lost, Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives aka Sex in the Suburbs

Books:

Anything by John Grisham, David Baldacci, Megan McCafferty, Jodi Picoult, Richard North Patterson, Dennis Lehane, and Jon Stewart. Also, Ender's Game, Pride & Prejudice, The Women's Murder Club series, and political writings from a variety of democratic authors :)

Heroes:

My mom, Nancy Drew, Professor Thureson, Donnatella Moss- and not just because she bagged Josh.

Yum, Paris in the morning

It has been almost exactly 24 hours since I left LA and I have been in France for about 5 of those hours.  So far, so good.  It is fabulous (say it with me SATC fans) to be with Amers and Jo...
