Marist High School I had attended all four years at Marist Highschool, located here in Eugene, from 2002 through 2006. It is a Catholic private school, and is a tight knit community consisting of about 500 students. So it is definitely a place where everyone knows everything about everyone else. Being able to be in a small school like that, I learned about how the school was ran. The athletics, academics, staff, and I can also give a brief overview of what four years at Marist is like. 

The Sims Throughout most of my free time in both middle school and even today I have played the computer game, The Sims. It is a game where one is able to create their own family, then build their house, and control their lives. You can decide who they will be friends with, marry, talk to, when to eat, and everything else you could imagine. Eventually I researched the game and also learned insider tricks on how to create new objects, houses, and how to get more money. Now that they made the Sims 2, I am trying to learn more about that game and how it works. It may not seem like you could spend hours on it, but believe me, once you start it you'll be playing it for days at a time. 

Blockbuster I worked at Blockbuster for about a year during my first year of college. I know all of the rules about Blockbuster, how it's ran, and what goes on 'behind the scenes'. One may not believe it, but there is a lot to blockbuster many may not know about. There are a lot of rules to people's accounts, giving people refunds, checking out movies, putting movies back on the shelf, etc. There are of course a lot of upsides to the job, and you get to meet a lot of great and interesting people. 

Yachats, Oregon I lived in Yachats for about 7 years of my life. It is a really small town, you know everyone, and it's hard to hide from anyone there. For those of you whom may not know where it is..if you go through Florence, past the Sea Lion Caves, and Heceta Lighthouse, you will eventually stumble upon the little town of Yachats. There are a few great beaches, ice cream shop, restaurants, and hotel. The people are very nice in the town, but of course there is always small town drama, and secrets... 

Valley River Center The Valley River Center is where I go to ease my boredom, or a place to hang out with friends. I have been going to this mall for over 15 years. I've seen all of the changes it has gone through, and met many of the people who work there. If you have a question on where a store is in the mall, I know exactly where to tell you where it is. I can probably even tell you what stores are in the mall, and somewhat describe on what each store carries. There are also some secrets places in the mall that I know about as well, and of course the theater is another favorite place of mine there too.
