Hey everyone! I guess I'll just start with the basics. I'm a 24 year old female living in San Diego, California. Hoping to be a Psychiatrist I've been in and out of school for a while. Next semester I am planning on applying to NYU. New York is completely different from CA, and I think I'm ready for a change =D I'm used to moving every two to three years, so living in California for so long has been wonderful but I need a change in weather at atmosphere.
O.K. Now my history;
I was born in Fresno, CA when my dad was a police officer. He then joined the ARMY and off we went to Germany. We lived in Mannheim for a couple of years. We went to the October Fests, Christmas Fests and ALL over Europe. From Monte Carlo to Madrid, from Paris to Bourges, from Madrid to Rome. We were there when the Berlin wall came down... which was a great day for all of Germany to reunite with their family and friends.
My mother mom became sick so we moved back to Fresno to take care of her. We then moved to Barstow, CA so that my dad could be close to work in Ft. Irwin. Then we moved to Ft. Irwin, CA. It was obviously very hot, but close to Las Vegas, so we went there often and as a kid I LOVED Circus Circus ha ha.
We then moved back to Germany, this time to Hanau. My dad was a military policeman so he was able to explore Germany while at work and take my mom and I to explore the country. We got used to going to German bakeries and stores such as the Toom market, which is where I could get my Kinder Eggs 
=D They were chocolate aggs that had a tinker toy that you got to put together when you opened the shell. Lets not forget the gelato. Mmmm. It's from Italy, but there are many German Gelato shops. Fortunately there was one right by our house. 
.
We went to the Eagles Nest, and also Hitler's house remains. The salt mines in Austria. To MANY castles. From the Disneyland castle (Neuschwanstein Castle) to the Burg Eltz Castle.
My favorite castle, the Herrenchiemsee Castle. It was another one of King Ludwig II's castles and absolutely beautiful. You take a Ferry to the the castle and the first thing you see is the elaborate waterfalls and garden. Then inside there were working stoves, toilets and ceilings of gold.
We also went to concentration camps and saw the places that the Jewish prisoners showered and slept. It makes me wonder if that's how our Japanese camps were here in the U.S.
Holland was also one of our trips, as well as the Chzech Republic, which was known as Checkloslavakia then. They had a Kmart there which was strange.
This is where I leave off for now... more to come =D
