| Introduction | I am a violin performance major, hoping to go into music therapy after I graduate. Music is my life, my passion, and my obsession. My deepest desire is to share my music with others who need it, and to use that music as a means for healing in every way possible. I love spending time with my friends, and I love to laugh and have a good time. I love the sunshine, the sky, the clouds, the stars, and the moon. I eyeball every tree I come across to determine whether or not it is climbable. I also name my trees. Barefoot is the way to be! There is nothing like the freedom of walking and running around unhindered by annoying footwear. If I could, I would never ever wear shoes again. I like to think on a lot of subjects ranging from music, to nature, to life, to utter absurdities. I am an observer of human nature. I daydream, read, crochet a large variety of items, go on late-night cleanings sprees when I'm upset of frustrated, and I love my late-night Taco Bell runs. I am a huge chocolate lover, cat lover, and am obsessed with dragons. One of my greatest desires is to go skydiving, hang-gliding, parasailing, and anything else that allows me to "fly". |
