Profile Information

I am a(n): individual

City: Oswego

State: IL

Zip: 60543

Date I Joined Fight With Tools: August 28, 2008

Gender: Female

About Me: I like to smile a lot and make others smile.

How I would like to change the world:: I want people to understand eachother. I want people to give the underdogs a chance. I want people to realize that there are ways to help that they don't even know about. I want the world to know that the average citizen does have a voice and a voice that is important to listen to. I want my baby sister to feel safe and loved.

My Personal Goal: After I get my degree in Library Sciences, I plan on going to Africa (with some other people) and setting up free public libraries for the African people. It means a lot to me to give back to people who don't have anything and sometimes I think I can only do that through books, reading, and words. But for me, that's fine. Because a great book can change someone's life.

Tools I Have: Love. Kindness. Peace.

Tools I Need: People.

Favorite Bands: Flobots, Marc Broussard, Aqualung, Augustana, Belle and Sebastion, Billie Holiday, Black Eyed Peas, Corinne Bailey Rae, Cute is what we aim for, Death Cab for Cutie, Fountains of Wayne, Frou Frou, Goldfinger, Head Automatica, Hot Hot Heat, Jamie Cullum, John Mayer, Maroon 5, Nada Surf, Natalie Cole, Nina Gordon, Norah Jones, Ottmar Liebert, The Postal Service, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Secondhand Serenade, Senses Fail, This Providence, The Duhks, Roisin Murphy, The Presets, Imogen Heap, Junior Boys, Kelly Sweet, Katy Perry.

I'm actually planning on doing something local and community based hopefull in time (years) i'll gain momentum and help raise awarness in other areas and eventually the whole USA (big dreamer) but at least my surounding districts.
