About Me: I am a college student. I am not your average college student!
I spent almost as much on cookware to move in to college than my books and first part of tuition cost!
I love cooking. I am a dancer. I am a gymnast. I am a coach, an encourager, an instructor. I teach yoga and gymnastics. I love scrapbooking and watercolor painting. The best thing in the world is to get lost out in the woods with a GPS while geocaching. I'm feisty, sassy and cute enough to get away with just about anything. :-)

My Greatest Cooking Triumph: learning how to cook from my momma!

My Biggest Kitchen Disaster: Brownies. Sans sugar and baking soda. (Don't ask what I was thinking) It was an epic failure.

My Food For Thought: "I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright. I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive. I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger. I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting. I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess. I wish enough "Hello's" to get you through the final "Good-bye."

People are going to want you, need you, exceed you, take you, love you, hate you, play you, rate you, save you, judge you, and break you. But hey, thats what makes you.

Live your life in such a way that when your feet hit the floor in the morning, Satan shudders & says... 'Oh shit....she's awake!!'

If you're gonna eat mat, you eat mat hard.

Gymnastics tells you no. All day long. It mocks you over and over again. Telling you you're an idiot. That you're crazy. If you like running fullspeed towards a stationary object, vault's for you. If you like pealing pieces of skin the size of quarters of your hands... bars is for you. Because the only thing more fun then rips, is when your rips get rips. It's super sexy. And floor, are you serious, I mean who doesn't want to parade around in a leotard getting wedgies and doing dorky choreography? It's delicious. If you like falling, then gymnastics is thee sport for you! You get to fall on your face, your ass, your back, your knees, and your pride! It's a good thing I didn't like falling... I LOVED IT!

Elite gymnastics is like, the navy seals, only harder. There are like 2000 navy seals, there are only like, 200 elite gymnasts. Guess that's because there's kids who's rather have a life than spend 6 hours a day training tricks that could kill you. Don't be fooled by the leotards people, the things gymnasts do make navy seals look like wusses. And we do them without a gun.

Your life is yours alone. Rise up and live it. -Richard Rahl from Confessor (Written by Terry Goodkind)
