I love to play my violin. I'm fascinated by music, and it is my favorite hobby. I am hardly without my violin case or Ipod. I am in the IB program at my school (international baccaluereate), and so I am accustomed to a college level work load. I am a regular for volunteer service hours, and I do a lot of extracurricular activities. For example, I volunteer at a human shelter every month for at least 4 hours. I also take part in school projects and such. I do not know what I want to do with my life or what I want to be, but I am confident that I will go on to do great things.

My favorite movie of all time is August Rush. However, if I watch anything with my best friend, I always end up loving that movie for all time.
- TV Shows:
I don't like to watch TV, and I don't have one in my house. I usually stick to video games. However, if I have to choose, I would go between House, any of the CSI's, and Burn Notice.
- Music:
I love all of music, from classical to rock. I only have two exceptions. I do not like screamo, aka death metal, or heavy rap. I do not consider this as music because I can't find a beat. They are more like a statement.
- Websites:
I'm not on the computer that much, usually only to do school work and college stuff. But, if you see me on here, I'll be on my email or reading online. And hey, who doesn't like facebook and youtube?? I prefer my phone and my friends rather than the int
