Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something and has lost something. ~H.

About Me

Reinhold Niebuhr: Nothing worth doing is completed in our lifetime, Therefore, we are saved by hope. Nothing true or beautiful or good makes complete sense in any immediate context of history; Therefore, we are saved by faith. Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone. Therefore, we are saved by love. No virtuous act is quite a virtuous from the standpoint of our friend or foe as from our own; Therefore, we are saved by the final form of love which is forgiveness.I will not conform to something that you think I should be. I am one in a million and I deserve to be loved for who I am even all my imperfections. I refuse to be just another girl in a collection. Treat me with respect or watch me walk out the door. It is NEVER ok to test on Animals!!! I believe that science can progress and still save lives without causing pain and suffering to innocent creatures!!I can't WAIT to graduate so that I can start my time with Doctors without Borders!!!!!.. ..*****While there's promise in loving, there are no guarantees. So live and love. Get hurt and love again. After all, there's no joy without pain and no bliss without hell.******

I just got tired of the random friend requests - Thanks*****Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction. Antoine de Saint-Exupery*****A Prayer For AnimalsHear our humble prayer, O God, for our friends the animals, especially for animals who are suffering; for animals that are overworked, underfed and cruelly treated; for all wistful creatures in captivity that beat their wings against bars; for any that are hunted or lost or deserted or frightened or hungry; for all that must be put death.We entreat for them all Thy mercy and pity, and for those who deal with them we ask a heart of compassion and gentle hands and kindly words. Make us, ourselves, to be true friends to animals, and so to share the blessings of the merciful.- Albert Schweitzer**" Possess nothing that should belong to others. Respect the property of others but prevent others from enriching themselves from human suffering or the suffering of other beings.Do not mistreat your body. Learn to handle it with respect. Do not look on your body as only and instrument. Preserve vital energies (sexual, breath, spirit) for the realization of the Way. Sexual expression should not happen without love and commitment. In sexual relationships be aware of future suffering that may be caused. To preserve the happiness of others, respect the rights and commitments of others. Be fully aware of the responsibility of bringing new lives into the world. Meditate on the world into which you are bringing new beings.Do not believe that I feel that I follow each and every of these precepts perfectly. I know I fail in many ways. None of us can fully fulfill any of these. However, I must work toward a goal. These are my goal. No words can replace practice, only practice can make the words."******Okay, well to start. This is me...If you don't like it, don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out. I do not know why some guys feel like it is their God given right to be mean to a woman. Don't compare me to anyone else, I am my own person. While we have all been through our fair share of SHIT in this life, that does not give any one the right to be mean. I deserve to be treated like a person. I am very kind, caring and loving. That is all I ask in return. Anyways, that needed to be said.****** I firmly believe that God gives up crappy relationships so that when we find that ONE special person, we really appreciate them!!! HELLO ALL!!!! I am 28 years old. I am currently a Student at Metro. Some of my goals include; getting my degree in Molecular Biology, studying Virology in the field, winning a Nobel Peace Prize (OF COURSE!!!) opening a clinic in Africa, backpacking across central America, and just enjoying life to the fullest! Someday, if I meet the right guy, I would love to get married just like anyother girl. But, looking at my track record, I don't see that happening. I miss having my best friend around, and hope to find that again someday. I am fun, have a great sense of humor, caring, open, and I really try to have fun no matter what I am doing. My favorite thing to do is laugh, I love just sitting around with my friends, just laughing my butt off :). I am a very busy person, so please don't get offended if it takes me a while to get back to you :) Banana Pancakes and Curious George make me smile!!.. .. .. .... Myspace Graphics - Myspace Layouts

Movies:

Curious George (SOO CUTE), Dirty Love (OH HOW I CAN RELATE TO THAT!!), Narnia, Zathura, I Heart Huckabees, Memiors of a Geisha, Hotel Rhwanda, In America, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Sabrina (audrey Hepburn original), Really anything with Audrey Hepburn or Marylin Monroe, Anything with Ryan Reynolds, Paul Walker, Billy Zane(that is one good looking man!!) or Matthew McConahey, Beyond Borders, The Cutting Edge, The Notebook, Snakes on a plane!, Garden State, Wimbleton, ANYTHING SCARY!, I have really gotten into Japanese Horror lately. Some of my favorites are : Ringu, Dark Water (Japanese Version), The Infection, Premonition (AKA Yogen), and Uzumaki. There is something GREAT about that Genre, its not super scary, but they are very artistically done and creepy at the same time!! Proof, the list goes on . . . ...I LOVE THIS LINE FROM THE MOVIE UNDER THE TUSCAN SUN :Do you know the most surprising thing about heartbreak? It doesn't actually kill you. Like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly. You shouldn't have to wake up day after day after that, trying to understand how in the world you didn't know. The light just never went on, you know. I must have known, of course, but I was too scared to see the truth. Then fear just makes you so stupid

Television:

Here it goes! I am confessing my ridiculous obsessive love for Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I don't care who makes fun of me I love that show! Of course due to that I just started watching Angel. I also like; Charmed, ESPN, Baseball Games, House, ER, Grey's Anatomy, Stargate Atlantis, That 70's Show, Nip/Tuck, Southpark, Myth Busters, anything on the Science/Discovery or History Channel, Law and Order SVU, again etc, etc

Books:

Okay - So I have a ridiculous book addiction! Yep I am a total nerd! I have to buy at least one new book every week - AND YES I read them all! Favs include: Pandora's Keepers, Natsuo Kirino, Richard Preston, Anything Bio-medicine or biology basedI like Dean Koontz, Michael Chricton, Robin Cook, I also read the New England Journal of Medicine, anything Science related! I know, I am a science nerd :) This is graphic, but the FUR TRADE NEEDS TO BE STOPPED!!

Heroes:
