Hope Kathleen Cichra’s Bio

Nicknames : Esperanza - Epohchica – Hope, the Dope – Hopeless…and many, many more

Born:
up in the north but… would not consider herself a Yankee… but then again definitely not a Texan… so I don’t know what that makes her, just weird I guess ; )

Backround :
Grew up in Texas… that is home (for now anyways). Lived a couple of different places but would love to be able to travel someday. “Gimme a tent, fishin pole, and some trail mix and I’d be happy for a while.”

Schooling :
hmmmm…. don’t remember much of that, maybe that’s not such a good thing? But in any case… was home-schooled her entire life… loved it! Plus…graduated 1st in her class!

Hobbies :
Well, when not working at the law firm you can usually find Hope 1 of a couple places. At the Ice rink in Frisco, skating, chillin, hangin out with hockey players… SMU campus doing campus ministry, hangin at Apartment 106… OR, just chillin with friends, being lazy and watching movies! Tendencies point toward the last one

Other hobbies include, but are not limited to the following :
Bungee jumping, sky diving, skiing (water or snow), rock climbing, Cliff jumping, Horse back riding, Riding 4 wheelers, motorcycles or anything that has wheels, swimming, being pulled in a sled by a car on snow, Football, Baseball, basketball (although she suck at it), watching good movies, hockey, Figure skating and Singing… she’s always singing (insist on doing it no matter the place or time!)

Most known around the apartment for :
Shooting out light bulbs, cooking spaghetti dinners, cookies, chocolate chip pancakes (still owes Judah some), & always smiling!

Accomplishments :
Apart from staying alive while being friends with Apartment 106, and only being shot in the butt by Jeff once… Hope is a well known figure skater, figure skating coach, web developer (among other things) at the law firm she works for, and a friend to anyone she can get to smile back at her.

Things she’d probably deny:
Wearing Judah’s pants… don’t ask, don’t tell… right?

Hope’s words to live by:
”Everyone seems normal till you get to know them!”
”Don’t frown cause you never know who’s falling in love with your smile!”
”A bad day of fishing is better than a good day of work!”

And…

“Being happy doesn’t mean everything perfect, it just means you’ve decided to see beyond the imperfections!”
