Hello World!

Hi! My name is Marisa. I am a transfer student from Santa Barbara City College. This is a my first semester here at CSUCI and I am a communications major. So far I am enjoying my classes and getting used to all the green grass. I am originally from Santa Paula, so I am used to this heat. I love cats, but unfortunately I don’t have one. It upsets me greatly. I love to swim; my favorite stroke being the butterfly. I play two instruments: the clarinet and the alto sax. I have played classical clarinet and jazz sax. My favorite genre to play is swing. I recently got into painting, so I hope to pursue that, and continue to get better. I love to read. Some of my favorite books are John Dies at the End, The Book Thief, Shadow of the Wind, and Unwind. I also love to do mine, and if able, do my friends nails. Sometimes I go really artsy fartsy and make very intricate designs. I like to eat and sometimes cook food. If I have friends over I will most likely cook them something rather than order something out. What I mainly know how to cook is Mexican food. All my mother’s recipes.
