Things I like to do:
Ever since I was little I've played and loved soccer. My parents had season tickets to Tampa Bay Rowdies games until I was about four, when the league went under. In high school I played for St. Pete High, and I play here at the university on an intramural team.
I got my cockatiel, Rembrandt, for my tenth birthday.
I have always loved birds. I got my bird, a cockatiel, for my tenth birthday. We named him Rembrandt, after the famous painter, because my mother thought he was so colorful he looked like a painting. I still have him here in Gainesville for now, though I assume he'll have to go back to my parents' house when I move to France.
Another one of my greatest loves is music. When I was little, I took piano lessons. I don't play piano anymore, but in middle school I picked up the baritone saxophone. In college, I started learning how to play the guitar. One day I would like to pick the saxophone back up if I can get my hands on one.
It's always fun to get the guitar out by the camp fire.
My love for music shows up in my writing as well. I worked for a time as the entertainment editor at a campus magazine called the Student Beat, and concerts are my favorite events to cover.
