About Me

Hello everyone! My name is Sandy Nguyen. I was raised in Chicago all my life. This is my first year at Northeastern Illinois University. So far, I am having a great experience. I like traveling to different places when I'm on break from school. I'm more of a night than morning person. Summer is my favorite season. I like to hibernate during the wintertime. My mom is the coolest mom anyone could have. My favorite animals are penguins. Sushi is definitely the best food ever invented. I'm addicted to sushi, I can eat it everyday! I'm really a big fan of shows like Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill, Vampire Diaries, The Hills, Melrose Place, and etc. I cherish the sisterly bond that my sisters and I have. We all like piercings and tattoos on our bodies even though they are 4-6 years old than me. I am outgoing, confident, feisty, happy, passionate, blunt, aggressive, ditsy, silly, sassy, loving, nice, and so on. I enjoy life!
