Hello all of my fellow team members. I'm so pumped to meet all of you and experience all God has for us but since we have a couple of months till then...

Here's the scoop about me:

> The name is Ariana but everybody calls me Ari (pronunciation: RE)

> Born and raised in dreadfully hot Central Florida

> Currently a junior at the University of North Florida where I am studying Health Science.

> I make my cash flow working with kids at the YMCA

> HUGE fan of the Indianapolis Colts!

> I eat cereal for just about every meal.. I'm convinced cinnamon toast crunch is all you need to survive

> I am training for a marathon, so I have learned to love running

> I have a weird habit of watching movies and tv episodes repeatedly

> I tried being a vegetarian for a few months but since I can't cook, I settled for being a semi-vegetarian instead

> Eat Pray Love is currently my movie obsession of the past 2 months. Please don't ask me how many times I have watched it

> I can't eat the ends of the bread pieces

> I love being outside playing sports, bonfires, picnics, swimming, etc..

> I love finding new music, but am not musically talented by any means

> I live for adventures, meeting people and trying new things

Well that's all I will disclose for now. Although Kenya is going to be mind blowingly awesome it will be hard to leave my amazing roomies/ bestfriends. Nonetheless, can't wait to serve and see God in ways I have never imagined. I can't believe this is really happening!!!! wahoo!!!!

I drew this the day I was accepted
