I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'd like to write a long, eloquent and captivating description of myself, but my p.r. staff took off early for the day, so I'm left to my own devices. I'm 26 and have recently made some life changes. I vowed to stay single while I concentrated on getting my finances right to buy a house, but I got completely swept off my feet by an incredibly fun, sweet, handsome guy who was right under my nose the entire time. I plan to enroll in the University of Tennessee's MBA program next year if I can hustle up enough money, which I am looking forward to. I'm also starting to write again, which excites me more than just about anything. Five years ago, I thought I would be a successful filmmaker by now, but I have come to a point where I'm happy with my life and to understand it is not that underwhelming. I have amazing family and friends who had my back when I needed them most.
So I'm doing things that I enjoy now. You can read my likes so you see my obsessions. Life has taken me many places, but my favorite place is where I am right now: happy. I'm just getting back to what I was born to be, a don diva and the baddest bitch!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

All of my friends I've lost touch with over the years and those I have now, as well as open-minded and positive people and those interested in the creative arts.

Yes, we can!

I just want to put a quick note out there before I crash that I am so thrilled that the US has elected Barack Obama as its next president and that the Democrats have taken over more of Congress. ...

My apologies

I don't deserve love.  I don't deserve to be happy.  That's the shadow that has been ruling my life for the past few years.  I know it's silly and I'm working past it, but it still loom...

For All The Haters Out There (And I Mean Real Haters)

My mom had to show the FBI the church e-mail inbox due to the mass amount of hate mail they started to receive.  I know you're thinking, "the church just suffered a mass shooting, and they're get...
