High school student, marching band fanatic, enthused triple jumper and rather un-motivated XC runner, book worm extraordinaire, embroidery freak (mainly counted cross stitch), and last as well as least, incredibly untalented artist, Aki (as her fellow students in the class of Japanese language and culture often call her) enjoys cleaning her beloved alto sax Octavian Augustus, riding her mountain bike, watching the history channel, and writing parts of short stories that somehow she never gets around to finishing. You could basically say that she has no life, but that wouldn't be very nice now would it? Aki made the empire state games this summer for triple jump and is the proud owner of a somewhat battered red '95 Mustang, standard transmission.
