I am the kind of girl who loves being at home with her dog, curled up on the couch reading a good book, out dancing her way through the town, hitting up an art museum, or going to a yoga class. I love being outside - nature is one of my faves. I am an avid recycler, activist, and animal lover. Despite my "hippie" characteristics, I also thrive on knowledge. I am pretty level-headed and practical (you know the friend who all the other girlfriends call in a crisis? Yeah, that's me). I follow politics, and am always reading the BBC or listening to NPR. It's important to know what happens in the world, ya know?
Beyond the basics, I am enchanted with cultures and the beauty of the world. I'm always trying to expand, to allow as many experiences and people into my world as I can. I just have a passion for living life.

I'm a Junior at OU in Norman - International Studies major. Along with the love of cultures and people, my real calling seems to be with International Human Rights and Advocacy. I aim to work in the non-profit sector when I graduate, and I'll probably go to grad school.

Making people laugh when I am not trying to be funny (especially when I am just being honest)! I'm great at social networking, meeting new friends, and connecting with others.
I have moves - love to dance. I can carry a tune. I'm a quick learner, pretty bright. Animals adore me and I dote on them. Children too for that matter. I'm really good at making others happy. Grade A communicator (yes, communication IS that important). I'm also super amazing with the amount of sponteniaty in my life - it's just enough to be exciting, but not too much to where it's unstable. I'm also a pro at embracing new experiences! I am crazy about them.

My smile probably! I'm not sure though, what was the first thing you noticed?
