NurseToBe

Hi! I am a 22 year-old nursing student attending the University of Cincinnati. I go to school full-time and work part-time, but I enjoy reading, art, and keeping up with our world.

Mainly classical, but I enjoy some older rock, and some new, alternative rock. I'm a sucker for movies with classical music soundtracks. I enjoy relaxing music such as Sara Bareilles, John Mayer, Coldplay, and Jack Johnson. Pandora is a great website to listen to with these artists on shuffle play!

Love, love, love Shakespeare. Like to read: poetry, mystery novels, Harry Potter, any religious/spiritual books, Greek stories and Classical studies (Virgil, Homer) and more...

Lord of the Rings trilogy, Shakespeare in Love, The Producers, some Adam Sandler movies for a laugh, Love Actually. Some Disney movies when I'm feeling nostalgic!

I don't own a tv, but once in a blue moon I'll watch National Geographic or Spongebob. But I entertain the idea that most programs on television are mindless junk! (no pun intended)

Painting, sketching, and making ATCs of course :) When I have the time: knitting and cross-stitch.

I like to try new recipes and I hunt through every cookbook I get my hands on. I like some Martha Stewart recipes (mainly desserts). Dark chocolate (anything!), Ritter sport bars, cookies, blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, cucumbers, carrots, healthy foods, milk, juice, breakfast foods, especially homemade breads, Asian dishes

When I'm not at work or school:

I enjoy music - I sing in a church choir and occasionally cantor. I listen to opera and music in all of its forms.

Art- I used to paint, draw, and sketch more often, but I would like to get back into that (especially for the ATCs). I like to study art history and read about different artists, past and present.

Reading- I keep up with current events as well as read novels when I have the time. I enjoy all subjects from astrology, biology, spirituality, to history and Christianity. Any subject I find intriguing, I read about it.

Volunteering- I am involved in a national co-ed service fraternity called Alpha Phi Omega. I held an executive position for 2 years and this year I plan to just focus on volunteering.
