Third-year Law Student, NC Central University, Durham, NC

My hometown:
Clinton, NC

I am most proud of:  My parents; they both grew up in Mexico and have shown me and my siblings that the American Dream - or whatever you call success - is within your reach as long as you are willing to work hard to obtain it.

One thing I never want to do again: Follow a fashion trend, no matter how popular. I will never allow myself to wear gauchos again!  

I am guilty of:  Getting way too involved in the lives of fictitious characters on teenage drama shows.

Last major purchase: Groceries - it's hard to justify major purchases when you don't have any money!  

My theme song: "Daddy's Money" by Ricochet (Hopefully this will not be my theme song for long.)

My favorite body part: My arms.  Carrying very heavy law books has kept them from getting flabby.

My best friend says I am: Thoughtful because I sent her a birthday card (via snail mail!) instead of just posting a message on her Facebook wall.

My mother always said: "Don't chase the boys; let the boys chase you!"  To this day, I have never called a boy…unless I wanted something like a cup from the top shelf or needed help opening a jar of jelly!

Best one-liner you ever heard: I don’t hear a lot of one-liners because I am around people who want to be attorneys, so they usually cannot say all they want to say in one sentence.  

Always...Brush your teeth…bad breath is the worst!

Never...Tell someone they have bad breath…so rude!
