About Me

I'm living in Colorado, once again. I grew up here, but moved away for several years and lived in Florida and Europe. I'm enjoying being back so far and being close to my family again. I have no idea if I'll stay here in the future, so I guess we'll just wait and see!I'm currently working on my degree in business management. I started college later in life so that I would have a chance to travel and live life, so now I'm playing catch up. I'm anxious to finish school and start a career.I have an amazing boyfriend and we have an adorable, energetic, and very needy puppy, Lacy. They mean the world to me! I enjoy watching movies, being outside and going to the park, going on walks, etc, reading (I really need to get into reading more again. I've been slacking!). I love going to Barnes and Noble or Starbucks to hang out and read for a while, especially if I can manage to grab a comfy chair! I'm always wanting to get into volunteering more, and I'd love for others to join me!I'm very easygoing and friendly. I love to laugh and I'm constantly smiling. I try to surround myself by people who can make me laugh and enjoy life. I'm always thinking and analyzing things, so my friends often come to me for advice. Maybe I should be getting a degree in psychology instead so I can start charging?!? Kidding... :)
