About Me

I'm pretty cool, at least I like to think so. I'm from a little town in Texas and I love Southern Hospitality. New Orleans, Chicago, and San Francisco are my favorite U.S. destinations so far. I go to the University of Oklahoma. I've lived in Hawaii and Spain. I have traveled the world. I'm charming at times and I'm always a smart ass, deal with it. I have an infatuation with attractive people. love my family and friends more than anything. I am super laid back. I love art of all kinds and sports of all kinds. But most importantly, I love anything and anyone that can make me laugh.

My Interests

Hanging out with my friends, traveling the world, being a nerd, dancing and singing to old school songs, being outside, experienceing new things, laughing, cuddling, getting dressed up, in depth conversations with strangers, meeting new people,...

I'd like to meet:

Wow, where to start?!? Anyone, anytime, anyplace in the world...as long as you are open, make me laugh, and are real.

Music:

You name it! Anything from old country (Willie, Waylon, and Johnny) to new (Miranda, Rascal Flatts, Sugarland), as well as ALL Texas Country. 70s rock, I could listen to all day (Led, Lynryd, Journey, CCR, Jimi, Queen, Pink Flloyd, all of them...). I will always have a spot in my heart for boy bands and pop princesses. I am always down for some rock of any sub-genre (Sublime, Greenday, Nirvana, Aerosmith, Train,...). Punk can always fit my mood (Yellowcard, Coheed and Cambria, Saves the Day, Fallout Boy). Old school R&B will always make me smile (Boys 2 Men, Montel Jordan, Brian McKnight, KC and JoJo). And I will always get down to rap as long as it has a good rhythm. ELTON will alwayz be one of the favs, and while on my journey though out the globe I have gained a strong liking for reggae and Spanish pop!

Movies:

Life as a House, Dazed & Confused, Boondock Saints, Donnie Darko, Dumb & Dumber, The Sandlot, Point Break, Man Apart, Connie & Carla, Blue Crush, Varsity Blues, The Virgin Suicides, Walk the Line, Memoirs of a Geisha, Waiting, The Notebook, Kill Bill 1&2, & many more.....I'm very easily entertained.

Television:

PROJECT RUNWAY!!!! Also I am addicted to CSI (all of them), Law & Order (all of them), Cold Case, Without a Trace, Medium, The Closer....you get the picture. Two a Days, Laguna, and anything on VH1(CelebReality)

Books:

To Kill a Mocking Bird, Of Mice and Men, Lone Star Nation, The Nanny Diaries, A Girl From the South, The Cheese Monkeys, Go Ask Alice....I don´t read much.

Heroes:

My Mama
