About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm tired of reading books about places, I want to see the world with my eyes. Then I'll conquer it. ;)

ABOUT ME

My name is Sabrina; I was named after the Audrey Hepburn movie. I've always been a curious person, and that's why I love traveling and studying history. I'm a fat kid at heart too; I love food. I will always try something once. I'm outgoing and sociable. Je parle francais aussi! I like visiting museums often. I love beaches or any kind of fun under the sun. At night depending on my mood, I enjoy having a nice bottle of wine and sweet conversation or dancing the night away in a club.

PHILOSOPHY

You got to deliver good to others so good things can happen to you too. Karma can be wonderful, so help a broke sister out! :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Anything with Julia Roberts, Bruce Willis, or Leonardo DiCarpio. I love romantic comedies and action films. War movies are definitely awesome too. I dig foreign films too; Vincent Cassel rocks. If you want to watch a 22 year old cry like a 4 four year child, then we'll watch horror films. Oh, I'm also a sucker for a good kids movie.

List of movies I like: Paris, Je t'aime, Inception, A League of Their Own, Casablanca, Interview with a Vampire, Forrest Gump, Cruel Intentions, Oceans 11 & 12, L'Appartement, Days of Glory, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Taking Lives, South Pacific, Derailed, Pretty Woman, V for Vendetta, Erin Brockovich, Lucky Number Sleven, Gladiator, 300, Mona Lisa Smile, Pearl Harbor, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Slumdog Millionare, Changeling, Philadelphia, American Beauty, Closer, Saving Private Ryan, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Catch Me if You Can, Charlie Wilson's War, The Rock, Elizabeth, Duplicity, The Other Boleyn Girl.

Music- I like a wide range of music but I love anything you can dance to... Lady Gaga, Sasha, Paramore, Nick Warren, Madonna, Dave Matthews Band, Maroon 5, Tracy Chapman, Nina Simone, Michael Buble, John Mayer, Ke$ha, The Beatles, Adele, Michael Jackson, Phil Collins, Eric Clapton, Estelle, Foo Fighters, HelloGoodbye, Santana, Muse.

Books- I mostly read history or political science books. William Lederer, Eugene Burdick, Arthur Schesinger Jr.; Jay Winik, John Mearsheimer, Adam Tooze, Alistair Horne, George Orwell, Standhal. I like reading books before watching the movie, like Harry Potter.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I held a "free hugs" sign in the middle of Times Square and counted how many hugs I received. 11. ha ha.

I've seen the Northern Lights many dark nights in Alaska. They are gorgeous in real life.

I've been bit by a sting ray. It hurts.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to compare what I've learned from classes and books to real life. I can't be successful in my future career if I don't know what is reality or not.

Although I do take pride that I was born in the United States, I want to show others that not all Americans think they are better than everyone else. As a political science and history major in college, I'm pretty knowledgable in American History (colonial and modern)and Modern French History. I can also teach you how to cook or bake some amazing food.
