My name is Darcy Elizabeth Wheeler. I was born in Austin, Texas. I currently live in Round Rock, Texas, just outside of Austin. I have two younger brothers, Wesley (a junior in high school) and Gabe (an eighth grader). I also have a dog named Patch and a cat named Weezie.
Some things I enjoy are music, art, dancing, going back to Austin, the lake, playing 42 with my family, playing Wii with my brothers, walking my dog, reading PerezHilton.com, and swimming. I started swimming at the age of seven and have stuck with it for twelve years. I am currently on the Trinity Swimming & Diving team. Places I have traveled for swimming include Mexico, California, Louisiana, Oklahoma, North Carolina, Arkansas and Florida. I have met many famous swimmers, most notably Michael Phelps after he broke his first world record. He was only fifteen at the time. I remember telling myself that I needed to get his autograph and a picture with him because I knew that he would be famous someday. As for my major, I am still undecided. I have thought about going pre-med, but the decision is not final yet.

I took a computer class my freshman year of high school. The class taught me PowerPoint, Microsoft Office, Adobe Photoshop and how to make a website and add music to that website. Since I took that class four years ago, I have forgotten most of what I learned. I am excited to take this class so I can refresh my memory and become better with computers.

That's so cool that you met Michael Phelps! I once had a family friend come stay at my house, and when I learned that he COULD have gone to the Olympics, he told me his first regret was not being able to meet Michael Phelps. :) How lucky!
