Mantra: Hard work pays off in the future, laziness pays off now.

Hidden talent: I actually love to act, but no one knows that. 

Favorite food: Seafood, especially shellfish

Hobby: Cooking, writing reviews, watching movies, playing with dogs

Do you sing? Yes, love it! But too shy to sing in front of people

Do you dance? Yup, I'm from a Hispanic family so I BETTER know how to dance!

Favorite movie: Gosh I can't decide, too many awesome movies out there

Favorite song: Can't narrow it down, but my favorite bands are Linkin Park, 30 Seconds to Mars, and Evanescence

Weird body fact: I have really tiny hands and extremely long arms for a girl who is only 5'3

Here's the added stuff I just realized came up ;)

Family background: My mother is Cuban my dad is from New York although most of my dad's family is from Cuba as well. My family is not your typical huge, close, loud Hispanic family. My family is actually really small and unfortunately we aren't that close, I really wish we were though. Random fact, one of my great-grandparents is Chinese! I guess that explains my Asian-like eyes

Cat person, dog person or other?  Definitely dog person, but I honestly love all animals.

Favorite tv show: I LOVE late night talk shows especially Jimmy Fallon <3 I also love watching Ghost Adventures and things that have to do with the paranormal. Basically anything funny or slightly scary is on my list.

What's on your ipod that might shock people?  When people meet me, they usually think I'll be a Pop music lover. I actually am not a fan of pop music at all, I loooove alternative rock music and it basically takes up about 95% of my iPod.

Languages: English, Spanish, and a whole lot of Spanglish

Y'all already know that I am pretty active in the church and that I hunt, fish, and play music.  I don't believe I've mentioned that I like to read Westerns (Louis L'Amour is my fave) and sword-and-sorcery or sword-and-horror stories.  Lovecraft is good, and so is Fritz Lieber, but Robert Ervin Howard was in a class by himself.  Give me Conan and King Kull like anytime!  They made a movie about Howard a few years back called The Whole Wike World.  Did any of you ever see it?  Carrotcake, you'd cry your eyes out for sure.

Family background: I'm a typical Euro-mutt white girl-- English, Scottish, Irish, German, Dutch.
Cat person, dog person or other? Dogs, but I really love all animals

What's on your ipod that might shock people? Beyonce. All hail the Queen.
Mantra: Reverence for life (I borrowed it from Albert Schweitzer)
Hidden talent: Vegan baking
Favorite food: Chana Masala (indian dish with chickpeas)

Do you sing? Only in the car.
Do you dance? No, but my boyfriend and I want to start swing lessons when we live together.
Favorite movie: Either "A Serious Man" or "Her," the Spike Jonze movie that just came out recently.
Favorite song: Videotape, by Radiohead
Weird body fact: Can't think of one, actually.

Also I'm adding these.
Languages: English, German, some Latin leftover from high school
Patronus: Octopus, because I am clever and magnificent!
Proudest moment: Turning in my undergraduate thesis about Jesus figures in late 19th century German literature.

edit: I changed spirit animal to patronus because I just learned that "spirit animal" is really specific to Native American cultures and I don't want take something that's not mine.
