My Profile

I'll say it: my real name is Natalie.

I am a freshman at my college of choice (it's so old and gorgeous plus the city around it has been called the best college town in the country). Yay! I'm out on my own! I'm staying at a dorm with the music and theater majors. I'm majoring in French Education. Someday I'll get my masters.

I have been to Europe (England, France, and Italy) for a summer and am intensely proud to say that I paid my own way. It is on that trip that my 60 something year old French teacher led me and others into the heart of Paris's red light district. It was crazy. Also, I graduated with honors from high school and am a member of the Thespian Society.

I am a brunette with eyes that change from blue to green depending on what I'm wearing. I like to wear my hair at a medium length and with side fringe/bangs (whatever you like to call it). For clothing style, I love blue, green, and lace (it's comfy to me). I never thought it would happen, but it did; I love skinny jeans. I'm petite, so it works out. Flats rock too! And gosh, I love my fedora (I just need an outfit for it).

I've ranted about stupid stuff.

Behind the Phrase

"Ciao For Now Everyone" is a phrase I started using back when I first joined ff.net. Ciao, a common Italian word many know, means either hello or goodbye. The whole point of the phrase is hello/goodbye for now. Hey, I'll keep coming back, even if it looks like I've disappeared into obscurity. I've used that so often I felt like I needed to give a short explanation. I think it's more for myself.

Miff

I spent hours writing and editing my fanfic based on the Lady of Shalott, yet I still don't like it.

Joy

My classes ended at noon today. Also, I'm loving my art history class. I don't like art, yet I like art history. It's a little odd, me thinks.
