I'm a freshman at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo. I love to cook, sew, and be crafty-- I even scrapbook (it's my vice). I don't read as much as I should- too busy- but I enjoy Jared Diamond and Jack Kerouac when I do. I'm excited for traveling to Japan during Summer I 2006 and learning about Japanese culture. Immediately after, I'll be teaching Japanese in Minnesota with Concordia Language Villages!
