RECENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS: My biggest accomplishment last semester was receiving a 95 percent on my 137-paged PR Research book which my classmate/friend and I compiled together. I probably only slept 26 hours during finals week to complete said PR book.
TRAVELS: I traveled to Washington state for New Years and got to spend New Years on the beach. I mentioned Washington in my last post about my favorite places. Then I drove to San Antonio with a group of friends for the weekend.
FAVORITES: I have an unhealthy relationship with all things Disney and Lord of the Rings (books and movies). My current favorite tv show is The 100, its very dark and covers the themes of good versus evil in an unexpected way. The most recent movie I saw was A Monster Calls, it was a tear-jerker and wonderful. My taste in music is varied, I like all genres with the exception of hard metal.
GOALS: In the short term, I hope to work at a nonprofit that works with children whether in Norman or in Oklahoma. In the long-term, I hope to move out of Oklahoma to the northwest (Washington state to be specific) to work in childcare using my PR degree or in a nonprofit position.
A big dream of mine is to open and own a cafe/bakery in Washington, so I can then go to the beach every other weekend.
PETS: I have two cats: Cookie and Pippin.
Cookie is the old grump and loves pizza, he will always try to steal my slice of pizza. He loves to cuddle and will show you his appreciation through love bites.

Pippin's name was influenced from my love of Lord of the Rings. She was about five weeks old when I found her in my backyard one morning and instantly fell in love with her. She is currently two years old. She is my teenager and keeps Cookie young and fit.

HOBBIES: I like to paint and draw in my free time which I never have since I am in college. I am a self-taught piano player (still ongoing). I recently had the opportunity to go kayaking and I loved it! I want to get into kayaking as a hobby, but it is, surprisingly, an expensive hobby. Maybe later in life, I will be able to kayak.
EXTRA DAY: If I had an extra day, I would want to be able to read for pleasure, reading for college is a different monster to tackle entirely. Honestly, I would catch up on my sleep or take over the world - depends on my mood.
NOTE: I will more than likely add more to the introduction page as the semester continues.
