ABOUT ME

I try to be easy going, but the high standards I hold myself to can cause a bit of stress. I understand the meaning of hard work and dedication and I love to read and go to school (I know, I know, I’m a loser). I am a Political Science major with a double minor in English and Rural Sociology. College has, for me, been one of the most influential times in my semi-adult life. I love music, food, and Wikipedia. I owe my GPA to the wonderful world of Addoral. By selling my soul and becoming a lawyer I will, hopefully, make enough money to do the one thing that I as an adult desire to do…travel. I love new people and new places. Though I’m from the south (the serious south, guys, like buckle of the Bible belt) I, to the dismay of my parents, am a democrat. Obama ’08!

PHILOSOPHY

Karma exists. There is a balance to everything, whether it’s our economy or our Universe. Education is the primary solution to our country’s problems. Work hard, do your best and be a good person. Religion is more than judgment, hate, or prejudice, contrary to many church’s actions.
