About Me

- Home - Family - Friends - My Faith -

My name is Emilie Grace Skinner and I am Junior (almost Senior) at Legacy Christian Academy.

I was born on May 10, 1991 and as of right now, I am 17 years old.

Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior and my faith is the most important thing to me in the entire universe. ( See My Faith )

I LOVE math! I love any kind and I love helping people understand how to do it.

When I graduate, I would love to go to John Brown University in Siloam Springs, Arkansas, but some of my other choices are Stephen F. Austin in Nacogdoches, TX and Sam Houston in Huntsville, TX.

My major will either be Accounting or Mathematics Education because of my love for math.

At my school, I participate in Student Council, which right now I am the executive Secretary. I'm also on NHS which I am now Vice President of.

I love tumbling! It is another one of my passions. I took gymnastics but quit when I was 12 and in level 8. In lost some of my tricks, such as my double full, but I can still do a layout. One of my goals is to get my single full back.

Another one of my favorite activities is softball! Some of the best feelings in the world are catching a ball that is almost impossible to get to and hitting the ball in its sweet spot, ripping it to the outfield. Softball season just ended and I miss it so much! Not only playing, but my teammates. They were the BEST!

Some of my other likes are bike riding, flying kites, shopping, reading, tubing, boating, summertime, working at Camp Pearl, hula hooping, having long deep meaningful conversations, listening to other people, sunsets, waking up early for no reason, staying up late, cloudless days, inside jokes, jump roping, playing other sports for fun, camping, fishing, roller blading, going to the beach, going to the movies, the mountains, little streams or creeks, Colorado, places where cell phones and the internet don't work and the list goes on!

My favorite restaurants are Cheddar's, Carlito's,  Jack-in-the-Box, Schlotzsky's Deli, Chik-Fil-A, Great China, Joe Patti's, and Baytown Seafood.

My favorite foods are quesadillas, chicken sandwiches, shrimp, and crawfish. Oh, and wings from Wal-Mart are SO good!
