studentambassador
For anyone who's wondering, my screename comes from the People to People Student Ambassador Program. http://www.studentambassadors.org/ President Eisenhower founded it in 1956; designed to get students out into the world to foster "peace through understanding." Even after all these years, I still feel honored to have been chosen as a Student Ambassador. Hmm...born in Pasadena, grew up in Orange County, California. Moved to Asheville, North Carolina a couple years ago. If you're too weird for Asheville...you're too weird. ; )
