Introducing: Me

On October 11, 1989 my mother produced her second out of three children and named her Staci after a character on the comedy "Alf". I have since never been called anything else since (excluding of course my middle name on certain precarious situations). I am a native born Texan, born in Houston, and am from a town, sorry "village", named Pleak; population 946. Pleak is located about 25 minutes southwest of Houston and currently houses only a village hall, two gas stations, and one stoplight. (You can follow the link from Google earth to view itty bitty Pleak with this address, you might have to zoom in): http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Pleak,+TX&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=35.082817,78.75&ie=UTF8&ll=29.483764,-95.807304&spn=0.037656,0.076904&t=h&z=14
In this respect, living in Texas, I have grown up with numerous animals including two horses, two dogs, three cats, one rabbit, one pig, and one chinchilla named Chico. Also, being a Texan, I've grown up living next to a barn bigger than our actual house which is a product of my dad's imagination. Growing up, I fought with two siblings, an older sister attending TX A&M and a younger brother currently attending my old high school and competing on the school's swim team. In high school my only computer experience was my Junior year for a semester when I took a BCIS course centered around computer programs. We learned the workings of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Publisher. Trinity was a spontaneous decision for me since I never imagined attending anything other than a state public school; but I am grateful over my decision and am loving the experience so far. I am on the club volleyball team here at Trinity since volleyball was a major part of my life throughout my school years since the fourth grade. Additionally, I am an avid environmentalist and as a result most of my friends know to recycle when within my vicinity. I plan to make traveling a major part of my life and hopefully complete a study abroad program for a semester.

My secret fact for this class is that I have a pot-bellied pig named Harley. I know a pig is not a conventional pet since most of them are sent to a slaughter house but Harley enjoys the treats of a rather spoiled dog. He takes walks at night up and down our driveway and relishes in his own house/shed set up beside our garage.
