About Me
ABOUT ME
My lovely friends would say, that I am a great person to talk to one on one. That I can listen to them for hours and provide any advice or emotional support that I possibly can. They might say I am kind of goofy, in a quiet way. I will drag them into do artsy and crafty things with me. They know that I am more comfortable one on one than with large groups of people. They would probably say that I love to dance and that I am good at it. Cooking of all types of foods is a passion of mine that I enjoy sharing with them. I am easy going and not needy. While I love being with them they know that I like my alone time too. They would tell you that I like to go to strange new places, like a far away city or restaurant and that I love getting lost along the way.

Interests
I love to take very close looks at the things around me. One can find all sorts of beautiful, and surprising things in what may seem like banal objects or places. I may snap a picture of these things, draw them or just simply sit and take it in for a few minutes. I love walking around a new place and I love riding my bike around places I already know. I spend a lot of my time studying for school, yet I try to find time to be creative in anyway I can. Writing, drawing, collaging and other such things help me to loosen up and have some fun. I like being outdoors, especially in nature, but I love cities too. I am very reflective person who spends a lot of time in my own head. But I do love a good chat with a friend and meeting new people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of the first times I felt a sense of real wonder and amazement was at the Metropolitan Museum of Art when I was 18. I was awe struck at the size and scope of the MET. I was humbled by the the hundreds of years and places I was experiencing through these amazing objects as I walked through as I made my way through the various parts of the museum. It was my first time seeing works by Picasso, Renoir, and others, as well as Egyptian art and Grecian art. It made a lasting impression on me; I now study art history. The other would be my recent visit to the Yosemite Valley. To see a museum of art is great thing, but seeing one of the world's most naturally beautiful places, untouched by the often destructive hand of man, is so special that it is nearly indescribable. As I stood looking over the valley the view seemed unreal. I felt so small next to those large granite slabs and roaring water falls. It was truly a magical and unforgettable experience.
