I can already hear wedding bells...
My name is Lancie - I'm a recent
graduate of Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College. I graduated
from there in Fall 2007 as an honor graduate, receiving my Associates
Degree in the field of Early Childhood Education. Currently, I've
taken my little show down the road to a lovely little place known as
Valdosta State University. I'm working diligently to receive my
Bachelors Degree in Early Childhood Education by the end of 2009.
Once I achieve this, I plan on getting married to my beau of 4 years
and starting a life with him, as well as beginning my professional
career as a Prekindergarten teacher.
The sweet smell of success....
I am a published poet - if you check the International Library of Poetry (search Lancie Roberts), you can see a few examples of my work. The 2nd and 3rd poem listed have won 1st place in the RESA Writing Fair during my high school career. I am a mother of 2 furry babies - Smoke is a 2-year-old Bombay/Tabby mix; Mischief is a 5-year-old caramel dwarf rabbit.
Interests: Cooking, Creative Writing, World of Warcraft, Dungeons & Dragons, Video Games (RPGs, mainly), Reading, and Renaissance Festivals.
Favorite Books include the Harry Potter Series (J.K. Rowling), the Anita Blake series (Laurell K. Hamilton), Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West (Gregory Maguire), Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe (Fannie Flagg).
Favorite Musical Artists/Bands include Hanson (go ahead and laugh...), Josh Groban, An Cafe (a Japanese Oshare-kei band). I also enjoy Broadway Musicals such as Rent, Wicked, The Producers, Phantom of the Opera, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, Chicago, and Spamalot. I also have a penchant for '60s and '70s.
Two of my favorite things to do is hang out with my friends and go to Tokyo's Japanese Steakhouse in Tifton, GA. It's even better when these two things are combined. It doesn't matter what the occasion (birthdays, anniversaries, departures, or simply to cure a bad day), it's always nice to eat here with friends.

My Talents and/or Accomplishments:
I
love to sing, and
I have quite the
range for a female - I can sing any range from Alto to first
Soprano. I used to write poetry as a form of personal emotional
therapy, and I used to submit the poems I wrote to my local writing
fair, as well as submit them to the International Library of
Poetry. My freshman year, I took both first and second place,
with following first place wins in my sophmore and junior years of high
school. I didn't submit anything my senior year, because I had no
new material to give them. To date, I have written over 100
poems. Other talents include cooking and computer skills. (I've
got a limited experience with HTML, as you can see!)
Academically, I was accepted into the Phi Theta Kappa honors society during my time at ABAC, also graduating with honors from that particular institution. In my high school days, I graduated with High Honors, High Technical Honors, and as a Member of the National Technical Honors Society. I also received a scholastic sweater, several academic medals, and 2 scholarships - one scholarship was from Alpha Delta Kappa for Future Educators (Education Majors). While I was in high school, I was also accepted into the Who's Who of America's High School Students.
I love to travel, and so for my senior trip I got to visit Grand Cayman and Ocho Rios, Jamaica with my mom. By a fortunate chance, she won two tickets for a 4-day/5-night cruise to the Bahamas that would stop at those two locations. The cruise was through Carnival, and we had our adventure on the M.S. Imagination.
I think I've tooted my own horn enough... "and now for something completely different!"

Something Special I Would Like To Do/Accomplish:
I can already hear wedding bells...
Other
than to graduate VSU with my bachelors degree in Early Childhood
Education (by Fall 2009) and get married to my long-time beau, I have
very few things that I would genuinely like to do. I would love
to be able to travel - and to several places, mainly abroad. I
would love to visit Japan, England, Scotland, Ireland, Germany,
France
(The Louvre Museum and The Moulin Rouge, please!), Italy, Greece, and
Israel. I
hope I can get to Japan soon - I'd really like to see An Cafe in
concert! Speaking of traveling - I would love to be able to visit
Broadway and
see my favorite musicals: Rent,
Wicked,
Sweeney
Todd,
plus several
others.
Since I play Blizzard's "World of
Warcraft," I
use their 
Speaking of "World of Warcraft," I really enjoy watching
things related to the game. 
I love reading 
One of my little hobbies is blogging. I probably don't
write nearly as much as I should. So... for this year's
resolution: to write more! I'm using LiveJournal to host a
free-write blog, called
