About Me I graduated Aug. 11th 2007 with my B.A. I want to move to Chicago or Boston and get a M.A. in Integrated Marketing Communications. I’m half Filipina and half Irish. My favorite flower is a tulip. My favorite color is blue. I have an obsession with jewelry. I have more than 3,500 pictures. I love my Scion tC. My goal is to see every Cirque Du Soleil show. I want to live in NYC for one year. I have a love for shoes and purses. I tend to spend money I don't have on clothes. Thanks to chemo, I know what I look like bald. I know way too much about the medical field. I’m scared of needles. I'm an advocate for research on rare pediatric cancers. I was blessed to have a wonderful loving sister who passed away July 2005. I am very close to my loving mother. I’m a sucker for tall guys who can dress. My favorite drinks are a Long Island or a frozen mango margharita. I'm proud to be a Phi Sigma Pi Brother. Go Nymphos! I tend to mimic behavior similar to a three year old when intoxicated. I watch the cooking channel eventhough I can't cook. I can eat rice anytime during the day. I’d rather go out to eat than have a home cooked meal. I have a strong opinion on just about anything. I’m a democrat and therefore, I dislike Bush. I hope Hilary is the first woman president. I find it easier to ask for forgiveness than ask for permission.

Music My ipod goes from Johnny Cash to Dave to Kanye to Timbaland to Shania to Lifehouse to Bob Dylan....

TV Oh boy do I love my shows and happy I have DVR :) Grey's, CSI, Criminal Minds, Bones, House, Numbers, Men in Trees, Nip/Tuck

Books I plan on learning how to read sometime during my 20s

Dislikes When people tell me I can climb mount Everest. Just bc I recently became an amputee doesn't make me want to climb a mountain. Put me in some high heels and stick me on a dance floor and I'll be content :)

Vices I like to people watch :)
