in general::The youngest of six kids and proud aunt of eight, I am a bona-fide Provo-ite, and loved growing up here. BYU considers me a senior (and I will be for the next two or three years) but I’m a junior in the Illustration BFA program, working toward a Communications minor. My campus job is great – I’m THE graphic designer for Life Sciences. Part of this job includes photography, and now I also do freelance photography. Basically, I love all things art.
Other than the normal art-nerd activities (sketchbooking, painting, designing, photographing, etc), I absolutely love music. I play the guitar and sing, though I don’t do either nearly as often as I’d like. I love writing, especially on my blog (and I take pleasure in reading comments that others add...check it out! :D). I’m blessed to have a real love of education, and through various church callings, discovered the joy of teaching. I love learning for the sake of learning, and revel in reading. People-watching, People-meeting, and people-helping...are some of my favorite things, along with big puddles and crunchy leaves.
exercise (and all that jazz)::
I love working out in most capacities, but I’m [thankfully] returning from a year-long hiatus of running, due to Achilles tendinitis in both ankles. I dearly love to dance as well, although I don’t know if I would consider myself to be a typical “dancer”. I also love doing Pilates, although I haven't done it for a long time.
weakness(es)::
Weakness #1: sugar...especially brownies (I think I'm salivating thinking about them). I have a tendancy to think that dessert should accompany every meal. However, I actually went off of sugar a few months ago, so I don't know if that will be the biggest weakness now that school's started. Weakness #2: It's hard for me to eat before 8:30 some nights, because sometimes I have late classes (last year I had a class form 7-11pm); other times I have to pull all-nighters getting projects done...and I have a grumbly tummy at 3 in the morning.
why i'm here::
During the school year, I don't often get a chance to work out and eating just doesn't happen unless I pencil it on my 3x5 card 'to-do' list. I figure this will be a good way for me to stay (or at least think about staying) healthy and planning ahead. I don't know how much of it I'll be successful in, but I figure that I'll try. Why not?
