I am venturesome, enthusiastic, and responsible.
My Self-Summary
I guess it's about time for me to change up my profile! I graduated
with my BA in 2007 and after living up there for 7 years I made my
way back to Long Beach.
I enjoy being outside and I'm pretty much game for any activity
whether it's camping, riding an ATV, cycling, white water rafting
or even staying home to watch a good movie or play a video game
(Guitar Hero, anyone?). I currently work at the Happiest Place on
Earth and I enjoy working there.
If there is one other thing I should mention it's this: I'm a book
junkie. You'll find me reading a book no matter where I go, whether
it's for coffee or waiting in line for a movie premiere. I read
anything from history to fantasy and everything in between,
including the labels on the back of bottles.
Photography is one of my passions but with work I haven't been able
to get out and take some great pictures. I would definitely enjoy a
good camping trip in the middle of nowhere to get back into my
photography habit.
What I’m doing with my life
I finished my BA degree in Archaeology with a minor in Marine
Science. I'll be taking a year off to decide what subject I would
like to write dissertation on before applying for grad school.
I’m really good at
I'm good at photography, playing guitar, untying knots, swimming,
reading and updating my blog. Yay for the internet!

I spend a lot of time thinking about
Currently I am thinking about grad school and about catching up on
my reading. Mostly I am thinking about my future and what it may
hold for me.
On a typical Friday night I am
I'm either working, going to the movies, or having a cold beer
while I relax from a busy week. Or I'm having dinner at a friend's
house. Or I'm playing Guitar Hero. It helps to know how to play
guitar. :)
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
If it's so private then why would I want to admit here, of all
places? :)
You should message me if
... if you want to, if you want to meet someone new to hang out
with, or if you want to show me the ropes around Long Beach since
my life currently revolves around work. Exciting, I know.
