Bio

I was born on November 21st 1990 in Nashville, Tennessee. This was very close to Thanksgiving and when my maternal grandmother came down from Vermont to be there for my birth my extended family got very upset because she was not home to make them a turkey dinner. I still get crap for that.

When I was eight my mom, dad, little brother, and I moved from Tennessee to Vermont to take care of that same maternal grandmother. Now, I have made yet another move to Bristol, Rhode Island so that I can go to Roger Williams University. I am currently a freshman.

When it comes to things that I like, well, I love music but I do not like to pick favorites. This is probably because I have a new favorite song everyday. Right now my day is not complete unless I wake up to “Up Up and Away” by Kid Cudi and fall asleep to another song of his, “Pursuit of Happiness.” I guess I cannot imagine myself ever getting sick of Fall Out Boy, and no, I am not emo. My favorite TV show of all time is “Gilmore Girls.” I am also currently, and possibly unfortunately, addicted to MTV. I also just love TV, there are a lot of good shows out there right now. Plus, I love movies. Some of my favorites are Julie and Julia, Slumdog Millionaire, and Juno. Reading and writing are a couple of my favorite things to do. I have only read a handful of novels that I did not like. I love magazines, my new favorite is Glamour. I have a subscription to Teen Vogue, but I am going to have to upgrade to real Vogue in a year when I turn 20, or else I would just be silly. My other main hobby is dancing. I do not dance at school but at home I did tap, ballet, and jazz. For a while I also took hip hop but that is only because I was competing and it was required. When I decided I did not have time to compete, I also decided I was too white for hip hop. I used to go to church every Sunday. I do not do that here either.

Besides babysitting, I have only had two jobs. My first job was working at a movie theater. It sucked. It was boring and I did not know what I was doing. I got fired after a couple of weeks. My only successful job was working at a day camp. I loved it. Unfortunately it was only two weeks long, so I did not exactly make a lot of money, which I could use since it is expensive to go to school here.

Back to my origins for a bit, my dad basically wanted to be a rock star. That did not really work out, so now he paints houses. He does own his own company though, and he is still in bands. My mom wanted to work in the theater, that did not work out either. Now she works for Weight Watchers and loves it. She loves helping other people and she is climbing the corporate ladder quite nicely. They met at college in Ohio and both dropped out, moved to Tennessee, and got married. I guess that is not a bad way to live.

  1. Very colorful and insightful. Not your typical RWU student, which is refreshing.
