JACKIE. 17 15 12 months away from the big 20, I'm a sort-of Sophomore trying to muddle my way through an Accounting Degree. Afterward, one hopes to make it into law school and join the big, bad world of Corporate Law. Let's all hope I don't lose my morals when I go work for "The Man," shall we?
The mind of a shrewd and no-nonsense lawyer and the heart of a poet and artist make me an interesting combination. Often, you will find me conflicted as the mind and the spirit tell me to go two different ways. I am very family-oriented and my mother is one of my reasons for living. Friends are the spice in one's life and they keep things interesting. I'm a very loyal one and I often give much better than I get. As a lover, I am a little fickle, but that all depends on how well you can capture my heart interests. Perhaps you can find a way to prolong his majesty's interest?
My guilty pleasure is dancing to Ricky Martin's Sound Loaded album. |
JOURNALISM. It's been a part of me since I was eleven. I've dabbled in most fields of campus journalism: from photojournalism to newswriting to feature writing to copyreading. Editorials, however, will always be my great love.
WRITING. I've been writing far longer than I have been a journalist. Like all good little authors, I started out with a diary and an active imagination. Time has changed my style dramatically. The muses have been silent lately, but I plan to take up my current WIP and revive it.
Current Project/s: None. :(
THEATER. My first love, seriously. I've loved the stage since the first time I stood on one. You would hope that this was some sort of magical fairy tale where I end up becoming the next Audrey Hepburn. Alas, this isn't a storybook romance; it's life. Fate directs me to less right-brained pursuits.
ART. Once a struggling comic-book artist, always a struggling artist. Despite having my interest in the visual arts having fallen to the wayside as I directed my energies elsewhere, I am still an aesthetic and I like pretty things.
PHI THETA KAPPA. The largest international honor society for two-year colleges. I am a proud member of the Alpha Omega Mu chapter. As of Fall 2009, I will officially take up the position of Vice-President of Scholarship and I am excited to start it. ΦΘK is currently what takes up most of my time and energy (besides school).
PURPLE. My absolute favorite color. Gift me with something violet and I'll love you forever. Other colors of interest are midnight blue, silver and black.
