Since this is my first real blog ever on my first real blogging website (thanks trusty ol' Blogger.com!) I should probably introduce myself.
My full name is Healani Combier-Kapel. You, and everyone else can call me Lani for short. This way, if I get any phone calls asking for Healani, I'll know its a telemarketer and can quickly hang up.
The origin of my first name is Hawaiian. Neither of my parents are Hawaiian, but I guess I'm glad they chose a name which is not, and hopefully never will be, on Social Security's top 100 baby name list.
Perhaps my name has made me seem more intriguing than I would've been were my name Christina. I play the drums in a band, am the Promotions Director for WHCS Hunter College Radio, work at the Dolciani Center at Hunter College, do lots of illustrative art, and still manage to maintain a decent overall GPA.
I currently live in Flatbush, or "Ditmas Park", Brooklyn with my boyfriend Michael Battaglia.

And you?
