So, who the heck is Kelly? I'll tell ya! Here's the most recent photo. (Yes, I did indeed get my hair cut. Shock and awe!) I am 23, will get my BS in Biochemistry on Saturday, and I am married. Kole and I have been married two years now. No kids, but I plan to get a dog for Christmas. I have 4 fish, but they will have to stay here when we move. Kole has his Master's in Industrial/Organizational Psychology, and will be working while I finish school at OU. We both went to Angelo State University, in San Angelo, Texas, which is where we currently live. Both of our families are here, so it kinda sucks to move away. I keep a weblog, which is mostly up-to-date, but you won't be able to see any old posts. I also play World of Warcraft, read all kinds of books, and cook like crazy. I have more chocolate chip cookie recipes than anyone else I know. Oh, and addicted to House and Grey's Anatomy. The end!

RE:About us...
(Date Posted:05/07/2008 19:56 PM)
Ok, I will follow the lead....
This is Alexandra, I am 32, Peruvian, married and I have a 3 years old boy (Juan Jose). I moved to USA about 7.5 years ago. I have a B. Sc. in Biology and a B.A. in Education, a Professional degree in Genetics and one in Biology Education. I have moved a lot, my husband says we must have gypsie blood... we have lived in NY, AZ, IL and now OK in the last years. We met in Peru while doing our undergrad research in the same lab loooooong time ago. He works as Research Scientist at the Molecular Anthropology lab at the Stephenson Research and Technology Center in the Norman Campus, that's why we will live over there. Our son keeps us busy when we are not working, we just chase him around, he is a dare-devil, he didn't get that from me for sure... I am a awful cook, so my husband cooks at home, no one complains when I cook becuase if it comes out strange... I just say it is Peruvian and there is no much reference for local people to compare , but I know I am just not a good cook. I love to watch House and Scrubs. In my spare time, movies and popcorn and I am happy. My reading is limitated to scientific papers and kids books for now.. whenever I try to read my son will come with his books, I do not have much "me time", It is OK, I got use to it.... All our family is in Peru, so we try to go once or twice a year, it wil be harder now that JJ turns 3 since now he has to pay full fare...still we try to get some family to visit us once in a while. That's what I can say for now... I am looking forward to see you guys!
Sorry this took so long to get to, I admitt I forgot about this lovely message board Kelly set up and then I got hit with a tidal wave of finals and papers. So here's about Me (Whitney)....
I'm 22 currently and will be 23 in July. I just graduated on Saturday with dual degrees in Chemistry and Biology from the University of Missouri-Kansas City. I graduated highschool in Overland Park, Kansas (which is basically a suburb of Kansas City) but before that had lived in Bloomington, Indiana until I was sixteen and my parents moved me mid highschool. I'm single but of course have a cat named Patches who's crazy and thinks he's a dog. I spoil him rotten and that probably doesn't help him keep out of mischief.
I have an older brother who lives in Kansas City as well and my parents live about a 40 minute drive from my current apartment so moving to OKC is going to be a big adjustment but I'm really excited about it! I loooove to read all types of books, currently I'm reading The Host by Stephenie Meyer, go see movies and just kind of relax. I also like to paint but I'm not really very good at it. I also love watching House, Grey's Anatomy, and Bones...plus I'm a closet reality TV watcher.
I do a lot of volunteer work including being a Big Sister with Big Brothers/Big Sisters and work at a camp for kids with cancer. I just like to keep busy. I'm so excited about meeting you guys and I'll try to stay more on top of the message board in the future!!
