About Me (Blog Assignment 0)

Hey all!

My name is Megan, but I often go by Meg. I am a third year DTC and French double major, and I'm working on minors in Film Studies, Professional Writing, and Fine Arts. I want to be in the film industry eventually, specifically I want to direct and produce movies.

I spent most of my childhood in Seattle, which is where I call home now when I'm not in Pullman, but I was born in Salt Lake City, Utah. I also lived just outside of Chicago, Illinois where my little sister was born. I just have one sister and two cats...and saying it like that makes my sister sound like a pet.

At school, the Cougar Marching Band takes up a ton of my time. I'm with the band anywhere from 8 to 20 hours a week, more when we go on trips, and that doesn't include volleyball or basketball pep bands. I play the piccolo, which is like a mini flute. I only took 1.5 years of lessons before band because I like to sing way more than playing an instrument.

In my spare time (the little that i have)I listen to music, talk/hang out with my friends, bake, swim, read, write, and dance. I am obsessed with the Food Network, and I love to experiment with food. I would love to cook my way through Julia Child's cook book, like they do in the movie Julie and Julia. I also like teaching myself instruments. I am working on the guitar, and I have taught myself some piano. There is always music going, on my iPod or in my head.

That's a little about me. Its hard for me to tell what people want to know without them asking questions. But I am up for answering whatever anyone wants to know
