I am here for Friends

About Me

I've had this profile for a long time, and I finally decided to get with the program. Because with me going back and forth between college and Long Island its taken quite a toll on my friendships, and we're all busy with our own shit. And no one likes to lose friends. So there you go.
So yeah I'm a recent graduate of Buffalo State College with a BA in History. Don't ask me what the hell can I do with it, because I still have no clue. And why History? Because i'm a nerd and I like it. I'm toying with the idea of taking online courses in Library Science, because I love books and this gives me the perfect excuse to play with books all day :) So yeah, I plan to be one of those hot librarian chicks ;). Hopefully anyway. Right now i'm at home on Long Island trying to figure out what my next few steps should be. I hope that those steps include a trip to Ireland and a job. And a license. And a car. :P
The basics about me? Well you got that pic up there, and frankly i think that looks can be decieving in my case. I have a hard shell that's hard to break through initially, and then once you do it's very easy to hurt me. Definitely contradicting and not your typical Leo trait. 90 percent of the time I have a very low opinion of myself and how I look, despite friends insisting otherwise. I have a freakish love of my hair, and I don't plan on ever dying it until i see at least 5 grey hairs. The day that happens i'll probably cry :P I have a severe addiction to the Food Network.I love nothing more than discovering new music, laughing with friends, hanging with my mom ( we have a very gilmore girls type relationship ), and playing with my cats. I also love curling up with a good book, drinking my friends under the table (and waking up with no hangover whatsoever. trust me, its a talent.) singing at the top of my lungs, and breaking into closed beaches at night with friends :P
Oh and one final thing. You insult my music and you die. Unless you're a close friend, and then i'll just laugh in your face :P
