I love to eat sushi, seafood, italian, ethiopian, etc...I also would love to travel to the east coast and Europe.... I'm still trying to figure out a career that suits me, I love music so I do want to get into a band a maybe become a counseler...I have a caring heart so I want to help others in need... I'm an open-minded, fun-loving gal, who does have a flighty sense of humor, when I'm not depressed, lol!!
