*A little about me!  (maybe more than you want to know)*

My name is Danielle (Elle for short).  I'm 19 years old and I'm from Clemson, South Carolina. I live in the Clemson area and have lived here most of my life.  Orange blood runs through my vains.  I love Clemson; The University, the football, the band, and everything that comes with it.  I will be a third generation student (grandfather, father, me), so even if I didn't love it, I would still have the obligation.        

I love my family, friends, and God. I love my family and I support them just as much as they support me.  I lean on my friends and I want them to be able to lean on me.  God is my rock and without Him I would not survive. I need all three of these things just as much as I need air or football.  

I tend to put anything and everything before myself.  I never want to let my friends or family down.  I guess I just want to make sure there is something worth anything to me.

I am current attending Tri-County Technical College.  I'm in the University transfer program there.  I will transfer to Clemson next year and finish pursuing a major in Landscape Architecture.  I love plants, designing things and playing in the dirt.  What's better than being able to play in the dirt as a career and and getting paid well for it?  I mean, being a 5 year old for the rest of your life is great!

Music is also a huge part of my life.  I just graduated from high school in May of 2004 and I was in band.  I mean all kinds of band.  I was in marching, concert, symphonic, wind ensemble, and I was even THE jazz band roady.  I love to play music (piano and clarinet), listen to music and sometimes create it.  It's just another form of art that I absolutely adore.

I love all kinds of art as well as music.  I like to draw, paint, sculpt, and write.  My style ranges.  Most of any of my art is going to be abstract.  My poetry is a little random just like me.  I write about things that are on my mind, bugging me, or just what's going on at the moment.  I try to be creative--sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.  I guess that's for you to decide.  By the way, you'll notice that I am obssessed with Peter Pan.

I am a major romantic.  I love romance and warm fuzzy feelings and dreams about love and all that jazz.  I think it's wonderful and hopeful and it gives me something to look forward to everyday.

Well, if I say too much else, I will have bored you all to death and you won't want to read my poems.  I think I'm gonna stop with the bio now.

Well..I thought I was done, but I'm not.  I love talking to and meeting new people.  So if you want, you can IM me.  Just tell me that you're from AP
