My name is Amanda Theaker, and I am a
senior professional writing and
criminology major. I'm originally from Southlake, TX (in the Dallas
area), and (besides coming to school at OU), have lived in Texas my
entire life. My favorite color is red, and my favorite book
is 1984 by George Orwell.
However, I am also a big fan of Stephen King's Dark Tower series, and a huge fan
of symphonic metal (generally of the female-fronted variety) and 80s
rock. Some of my favorite bands in these genres include: Nightwish,
Within Temptation, Leaves Eyes, After Forever, Epica, Rhapsody (of
Fire), Van Halen, Journey, Def Leppard and others. I also enjoyed
playing video games, generally of the RPG variety and have a passing
interest in comic books. I also enjoy movies and, occassionally, good
TV shows...sadly thats a dying breed today. I also enjoy watching the
food networking and cooking when I can. That's pretty much me in a
nutshell.
