I am here for Friends

About Me

MySpace Layouts
I'm a student at the University of Central Florida and in less than 2 years I'll be teaching high school math and hopefully coaching. When I tell people I'm going to be a teacher, most assume I'm an Elementary major and they're shocked when they find out I'm majoring in Secondary Math Education. Even though I don't want to teach at the Elementary level, I still love kids! I'm definitely a people person, so don't dare me to talk to a complete stranger. I might be there a while! I love meeting new people and hearing stories about their lives. We can all learn so much from each other and about life, if we only just listen. I love theme parks and roller coasters! The faster the better! I consider myself somewhat of a risk taker. Someday I want to go skydiving and bungee jumping...but only if it's over water! :) I really want to travel and Italy is #1 on my list. One of the many perks of being a teacher...summers off! So hopefully I'll be traveling somewhere new every summer. I love cold weather and snow skiing. I also love warm weather, but sometimes the summers here in Florida are brutal! I want to learn how to snow board and water ski. I love the beach and hopefully within the next year I'm gonna go swimming with dolphins! So excited! I love love love sushi and I could eat that all day every day. I really enjoy driving and often times I'll grab my CDs and just take off for a few hours. I need my "me" time every now and then. I'm an extremely loyal friend and there's nothing I wouldn't do for any of my friends. I never turn my phone off in case someone ever needs me. Yes, I'm that friend you can call at 2am when you're stranded and need a ride! I'm a very forgiving person and sometimes I think I might be a little too forgiving...but then again, why would I want to stay mad at someone? I used to be extremely uptight and "type A", but I'm much better now. I haven't gotten to the point of complete relaxation, but I will one day. I worry too much sometimes and I tend to tackle my friend's problems for them. I try so hard to save the world! ;) I love dogs, but I'm not too fond of cats. I like to eat healthy and I usually workout 5-6 days a week. I like to go out, but I also like stay in, curl up on the couch and watch movies. I like to play sports and yes, I'm the kind of girl that wears makeup when I play sports or workout! My family and friends are so incredibly important to me and I am so blessed to have them in my life. I don't take life for granted. I have lost too many people and I know life can be taken away in a second. So I make it a point to say "I love you" to my friends and family as often as possible. :)

My Interests

I really love watching sports and playing sports. I enjoy going out and trying new restaurants and bars. I love Blockbuster nights when I can totally relax with a good movie and junk food! And I love my "girls night out". I have such a wonderful group of friends! I absolutely LOVE the beach and being outside...or hanging out on a boat in the middle of a lake. And once a week I grab my CDs, get in my car and drive for hours, without any idea of where I'm going or where I'll end up.

I'd like to meet:


Music:

I love music and I have such a variety of what I like. I can start listening to Josh Groban, change to Linkin Park, then to 2Pac, Tears for Fears, and end with Jack Johnson. And I love country music! My favorite!

Movies:

I sputter out movie quotes on a daily basis. I'll say a single quote from some random movie and expect people to know what I'm talking about. I can watch a movie once and start quoting it. I'm all about comedy because I LOVE TO LAUGH! I'm tentative to watch horror movies because I am a jumpy person and I hate being scared. I've had sooo many people beg me to watch "Saw"...I don't think so!!! Some of my favorites include: SUPER TROOPERS, Space Balls, Pride and Prejudice, Serendipity, anything with Jay and Silent Bob, Can't Hardly Wait, Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, Tommy Boy, Shawshank Redemption, Jerry Maguire, Swingers, Grease, The Notebook (I'm still crying!), Phantom of the Opera, Just One of the Guys, 16 Candles, Napoleon Dynamite and soooo much more.....

Television:

I have to have my daily dose of Celebrity gossip, so I'm usually watching something on MTV, Vh1, or E!. I also love watching shows about places around the world that are haunted. And I like watching MythBusters and other shows on the History and Discovery channel. And of course, I love watching SportsCenter (or anything sports related). Oh, and I always look forward to Family Guy and reruns of Saved by the Bell! hahaha! No, seriously...I'm not kidding...

Books:

I love any book by Nicholas Sparks!!! He is my absolute favorite!

Heroes:

My brother is definitely my biggest hero! He's 21 and he's a Marine. He's defending our country and I am so proud of him. He should be everyone's hero.
