Biography

i had to write a "brief" biography for my website (coming soon!) so i figured since i wrote it, i might as well copy paste it. :) here it goes:

I was born in a little town in central Mexico called Guanajuato, Guanajuato. I used to fall asleep to Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, and I have been told I never ever cried, not even after a whole day of not eating. However, I did not grow up in quiet peaceful Guanajuato. I call Monterrey, Nuevo Leon my hometown. Ever since I can remember until the age of 11, I lived in a live city full of family, colors, and people. Happy childhood and carefree memories endure from Monterrey. Then we moved into a horrible, detestable, despicable town called Cd. Juarez, Chihuahua. The only thing that saves this town from being the closest thing to hell on earth in my mind would be two angels put in my path—Pamela Barrera and Señora Soledad Silva. Aside from that, absolute barbarism would be my fondest memory from that place. After living there for about a year and a half we moved to Madison, Wisconsin for a period of about 8 months. To briefly describe that period in my life, I shall say it was peaceful and equally uneventful, and I cherish the memory of a wonderful science teacher we lovingly nicknamed Dr. Slo (Mr.Slominsky was his real name). My eight grade year we came here, to the town everyone lovingly nicknames G-vegas. Hmmm… what to say about it? I have nothing but great memories of A.G. Cox Middle School and D.H. Conley High School (although now the memories are put to trial as to whether most are merely a figment of a wild imagination) but I can’t complain, many people don’t even have imagination to be happy about. I do hold close to my heart several wonderful people--- April Barnett, my closest friend. We have known each other since I arrived to Greenville and clicked instantaneously. Her friendship is one of my richest treasures. Theresa Rutchka, whose close friendship has encouraged me in many occasions. We have endured some tough times and we have endured many many many happy times. Kelly Rowe, my fantastic friend, the best story teller I know (who can accomplish not to tell a tall tale in the process!) And now (*drum roll*) the most unlikely, but one of my favorite—Stephen Kintz. Yes we went to the same high school, yes, we had classes together, but the chances of us going out were equal to the chances of planet Jupiter turning into a huge stick of mozzarella cheese. We come from opposite backgrounds, ideologies, and even music likes. Turns out, God has a bigger plan and the unlikely happened--- Jupiter turned into a big piece of cheese! Ha! NOT! Stephen possesses a greater soul than ideologies, cultures, music styles, or backgrounds. We have been together since December 18th, 2004. We have endured more little complications in our relationship than I’ve had in my whole life. And we’ve successfully made it through.


To recap my life briefly, for you, my lazy readers--- I’ve moved a lot, made a bunch of good friends, lost touch with many of them too, and discovered many things in the process. I try my best to be a good Christian, friend, daughter, student, sister, girlfriend, leader, and artist. I have failed miserably many times, but I can say I have tried.
