My Future

For high school I attended High Tech High International. During high school I was given the opportunity to travel. I must say that my favorite trip was when I went to London, England where I saw Buckingham Palace, Stonehenge and my favorite, the first ever Hard Rock Café. That Hard Rock was amazing. They had the most awesome stuff. London was so beautiful. It is one of my favorite places in the world. The beautiful buildings and places I visited just took my breath away. During my senior year, I became very stressed and overwhelmed by the choices I had to make, I had to know what to study, and what colleges offered classes for the major of my choice. I realized that the one thing that I wanted to do most, was write novels. Luckily you don’t need a masters degree to write books, but I knew that I wouldn’t be able to live off writing books, at least for starting out. I ended up deciding to become a journalist. During college I went to UCSD and majored in American Literature. After i graduated from college, i got a job working for La Jolla times, publishing small articles about current events involving political issues. When I was 24 I married the love of my life, who is a scientist and is currently trying to prove his theory that whatever color a child’s room is when they are babies - infants, will be their favorite color in later life.

Its not going all that well. After working at La Jolla Times for about a year and a half, i got a job writing articles for the Uinion Tribune. I then started working as theater critique, publishing my reviews in magazines and papers all around San Diego. After doing that for about 2 years, I quit my job to become a full time mother until all of my children had started school. In my spare time I have written several novels under a pen name about various subjects. I am now 34 years old and have 3 children, Michael (6 years old), and Claire and Ian who are twins ( 4 years old). I hope that through the books I have written, and am yet to write I will make some small impact on the world around us and make it a better place.
