Julie’s Waste of Disk Space


Welcome to my first attempt at making myself known on the World Wide Web! This is a learning process for me, so cut me a little slack if my page is less than cyberslick! :)

Who Am I?




As you have probably guessed by the name of this page, my name is Julie. I am a Graduate Student in Geology. I am also a wife and mother. I live in the Dallas-Fort Worth Area with my husband of 15 years, Dave, and our 5 year old son Jason.

Juggling all that can be a challenge, but it keeps me busy. This page was constructed as part of a course in Computer Applications. If you want to know more about me, keep going!

I really enjoy both my family and my school. I am lucky to be able to do both.





What I Do When
I’m Procrastinating



I have a number of hobbies and interests, and usually I’m working on them when I should be doing something else.

I LOVE to read...anything printed is fair game, but I particularly enjoy Science Fiction/Fantasy, Forensic Thrillers, and Historical Mysteries. Of course I read lots of Geology texts and articles too! Click on the Books at the bottom of the page to visit my favorite online Bookstore....Amazon.com

Another thing I do for fun is to decorate cakes. It’s how I indulge my creative side. I usually get drafted to do neighborhood birthday cakes, or cakes for functions at church. Click on the cake at the bottom of the page to visit the Wilton Web Site.

When I feel like being a total vegetable, I watch Home & Garden Television & get ideas for the dream house I’ll build when I get rich. Click on the picnic basket to visit the HGTV web site.

I also relax by chatting with other parents online via America Online. Hi PRUmmies....you know who you are!





Education



I received my Bachelors in Science in Geology from the University of Texas at Arlington in August, 1998. I was very involved in Campus Activities during my time at UTA, serving as a Peer Counselor, and being involved in a number of Scholastic and Leadership Honor Societies.

I am currently working on an M.S. degree in Geology at
Texas Christian University. I am a teaching assistant in the Department of Geology. My tentative thesis topic is a study of the Cambrian Rhyolites of Bally Mountain in Southern Oklahoma.
