So... I'm Shannon, l I'm a twenty-year-old college student who has an addiction to everything theater. . I'm a nerd I admit it. I love Harry Potter, and I've even read the Twilight books. . . and loss some brain cells in the process. I'm kind of a nerd but it doesn't take over my life. I can't wait to get out of southern IL, nothing against the people here really just want to experience something else for once. I'm almost done with my Associates Degree.

So intrests, outside of school my horses are my babies, and my dogs. I'm not really an outdoor person (unless it invloves horses). I love music, and I'll give just about anything a try. Have to admit rock and country are my favorites. There are a fair few show tunes played in my car but hey I'm a theater girl what can you really expect?

At the moment I'm going to school for a dual Bachelors in Theatre and History. I'm only at Rend Lake right now but I'll be attending SIUC within the next year and a half or so.

-Memorizing stuff really quickly.
-Geometry (weird for a theatre geek but hey I owe my geometry teacher so much)
-Spilling out weird historical facts
-Riding horses
-Hitting the "glass breaking note"

My hair. I've gotten into a habit where my hair goes on these rotations throughout the year of what style it's in. Last spring it was very 40s esk this fall it's gone very Victorian oh yha and there's a lot of it. I mean a lot. :)

Also the nerdy part of me tends to come out quite strongly. I quote things without meaning to (gets much worse when my best friend/enabler) is around.

Lines! Comes with being a theater major. Doesn't take over my whole life but lines lines and more lines.

But seriously moving to Carbondale. The last year of high school it seemed like it would take forever but it's coming a whole lot sooner than I thought and I'm really excited.

During the school year I'm usually learning lines or studying. Come summer out with my girls or curled up watching a movie.

I agree with Stephen King that the road to hell is paved with adverbs.

I don't know?

You can see past all the theater references... I swear it's not all I do. Really.

You know time is a big ball of wibbly wobbly timey whimey... stuff.
