I LOVE to travel mainly to new places. I want to see as many places as I can in my life. I love to dance, any kind of dancing like hip hop, ballroom, salsa...anything. I like music and I like to sing. I love art and any kind of crafts. I like to paint, sculpt, batik, crochet, knit, scrapbook (although I lack some patience for this), and anything where I get to use my hands to do the work. My main interest is getting my degree in veterinary medicine.

Movies
Some of my favs are Garden state, Amelie, Monsoon wedding, Pirates of the Caribbean, Love Actually, 50 First dates, Dirty Dancing, Legend, Labrynth, Goonies, Big Fish and the Constant Gardener, Pan's Labyrinth.
I watch makeover and home makeover shows, some reason can't resist watching court shows like Judge Judy. ER, House and I m stuck with Scrubs and Greys anatomy being on at the same time since I got addicted to Greys when Scrubs was temporarily off the air. Imagine that, I watch all the hospital shows. Also watch Dancing with the stars when its on cause I love dancing.
Books
Well, even after working in a book store for 5 years, I still haven't read nearly as much as I would like to. Working with people that actually analyze books can make you feel illiterate. I like any of the classics that I didn't read for school. All of Lois Lowry's are great. Recently I've read Eragon, Wicked, Kiterunner...
Heroes
Anyone who does what makes them happy without hurting others and without letting others hurt them along the way.

About me: I am a proud student of Ross University School of Veterinary medicine on St.Kitts, West Indies. Assuming all goes well, I will be a doctor this June!! Right now I am in Minneapolis/St.Paul Minnesota doing my final year of vet school.
What else...I LOVE to travel to new places. I've traveled the coast of US from NY to Florida. I love Boston, NYC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Charleston, and Savannah. Went to Jazz fest in New Orleans before Katrina hit and Baton Rouge this year. I lived in upper peninsula of Michigan in Houghton and traveled some of the mid west from Michigan to Wisconsin, Chicago, Ohio, etc to Louisiana. I love Madison, WI and would like to see more of Chicago. And I've gone to LA and took the train to San Diego. Plenty more states to visit! I also love traveling to Canada. Toronto is absolutely wonderful. I studied for a month in Brazil in the middle of the Amazon rainforest. This past Christmas I went to Ghana, West Africa. Stopped in Amsterdam and I'd love to go back and visit it again. Oh yeah, while I lived in the Caribbean I managed to visit Nevis, St.Martin, St.Barts, and Anguilla. My next goal is to visit Central America and Southeast Asia. I love to travel because it incorporates my other passions...music, art, photography, new cultures, languages, food, nature, wildlife. There are so many beautiful things to see and experience in the world, I can't imagine staying in one place and missing out!
So what else do I like...SMILING, LAUGHING, singing, music, live performances of any kind (plays, concerts, dance, cirque, comedy, jazz...), drums and percussion instruments, sketching, building and fixing things, Reisling wine, food especially ethnic and especially thai/asian, MILK (and most other dairy foods), recycling, horoscopes, constellations, daisies, autumn (fall leaves, apple festival, the crisp smell of winter coming), light snowfall on the tree branches, loud bright thunderstorms, fireworks, road trips, hiking, camping, kayaking (canoe is too much work), skiing, jet ski, 4 wheelers, ice skating outside, sledding, horseback riding, Sunday morning rain, green, blue, rust orange, zoos, aquariums, photos, DANCING (all kinds - ballroom, latin, hip hop, techno, dirty caribbean HA HA...), animals of course, wild cats, rhinos, elephants, hippos, dragonflies, butterflies and lightning bugs, puzzles and brain teasers, playing cards (hearts, spades, pitch, pinochle, gin rummy) and games (cranium, dominoes, twister), video games (especially tetris and mario kart), old architecture, family gatherings, socializing, compact cars and small 'things' (seriously, I even got my car only because it is little), driving standard, wearing fall clothes (kinda missed it since I was in hot weather 2 1/2 years), hugs from someone wearing a nice sweater, my cameras, using smiley faces when I sent messages, getting questions right in clinics....
I would love to sky dive, learn how to sail, learn to rock climb, travel to the places I marked on my map, work with exotic animals and/or abroad, learn to play the violin and steel drums, oil paint, weld and do glass work, and I'd love to buy my mom a horse....

Heather, you are Right-brained
Most right-brained people like you are flexible in many realms of their lives. Whether picking up on the nuances of musical concerto, appreciating the subtle details in a work of art, or seeing the world from a different perspective, right-brained people are creative, imaginative, and attuned to their surroundings.
People probably see your thinking process as boundless, and that might translate to your physical surroundings as well. Some people think of you as messier than others. It's not that you're disorganized, it's just that you might use different systems to organize (by theme, by subject, by color). Straight alphabetization and rigidly ordered folders are not typical of right-brained behavior.
You are also more intuitive than many. When it comes to reading literature, you probably prefer creative writing or fiction over nonfiction. And when it comes to doing math, you might find you enjoy geometry more than other forms like algebra. Take the Brain Test
Heather, when you're head over heels, you're an
Essential Companion
You respect and value the people in your life, but you also make your romantic relationships a top priority. You are not typically the type to try to impress others with fancy romantic gestures. Nor are you someone who obsesses over your appearance. If that special someone is willing to take you as you are, you will happily do the same for them. And if they're not, chances are you should keep on following your heart to a new love for your life — one that might be right around the corner.
Take the Love test
Heather, your position as middle child shows most strongly in your even-tempered nature.
Similar to other middle children, you are probably very stable emotionally which makes people feel at ease around you. In addition, having older and younger siblings taught you how to appreciate diverse points of view. You have learned that the best way to resolve conflict is by remaining calm and open to compromise. Like other middle children, you tend to radiate warmth, affection and maturity. You are likely to display an extraordinary ability to remain composed even in stressful situations.
You are both logical and creative. You are full of ideas.
You are so rational that you analyze everything. This drives people a little crazy!
Intelligence is important to you. You always like to be around smart people.
In fact, you're often a little short with people who don't impress you mentally.
You seem distant to some - but it's usually because you're deep in thought.
Those who understand you best are fellow Rationals.
In love, you tend to approach things with logic. You seek a compatible mate - who is also very intelligent.
At work, you tend to gravitate toward idea building careers - like programming, medicine, or academia.
With others, you are very honest and direct. People often can't take your criticism well.
As far as your looks go, you're coasting on what you were born with. You think fashion is silly.
On weekends, you spend most of your time thinking, experimenting with new ideas, or learning new things.
Hey Girl, Just wanted to see what you've been up to. I can't believe we are almost done! I unfortunately have bad news... I won't be able to make it to graduation:( I just can't afford it with the wedding and all. Send me your address so I can send you an invitation. Love ya and miss ya:) Hope that everything is going great and that you are enjoying the last couple of weeks of vet school. Hope to hear back from you soon.
So I ready on AOL news this morning that a woman got mauled by a polar bear at a zoo (at the Berlin zoo in Germany) b/c she JUMPED INTO THE ENCLOSURE. There are photos of her getting attacked. The zoo staff rescued her, and it said it was still unclear why she jumped in there. WHO DOES THAT?! Seriously.
PS. Did you see Sabrina's status on facebook yesterday? Apparently someone stole the hood ornament off the Jag.
Hey Heather! Haven't heard from you in a while... Just wanted to stop by and let you know we're thinking of you here in Lil 'Ol Solvay. Hope you're doing well... Don't forget about us little people. ;-)
I go out a lot down here with my friends Josh & Carrie. They have friends in a (rock cover) band called Outbreak and we see them a lot. But we'll definitely hit up the bars when you come!
Coldplay was freaking amazing! They played: In My Place, The Scientist, Viva La Vida, Lost, God Put a Smile upon my face, Politik, Fix You, Speed of Sound, and their encore was Yellow. LOVED IT!! And our seats were really good. I wish they had played Green Eyes though.
I miss you girl! I wish I was able to travel more...at least you're in a good place for fall! We'll be closer to each other some day, I'm sure of it...
They were burnin a little bit. Things are going well. I just finished Radiology and I start general surgery on Mon. It is getting quite hot here as we near August but the nights have been beautiful. I hope that everything is going well. I miss you and Allison:)
