About Me

I have a great life and I wouldn't change anything about it for the world.
I love my friends. I have a short list of great friends but they are friends for life. I don't know where I'd be without them.
My mother is amazing to me and when I "grow up" I hope I'm half the woman she is.
I have an adorable nephew Trenton and a niece Kenedi. They are my world and watching them grow up and explore turns me into a child again. I see the world from their eyes and makes me appreciate things more.
I'm single and loving it. I wouldn't mind a boyfriend and I hope I'll find somebody worthy soon but for now I'm content.
Fahlen is my best friend and I don't know where I'd be with out her. We've been friends for such a short amount of time but that doesn't matter. We are practically the same person.
I'm loud, obnoxious, unique, have a weird laugh, I giggle constantly, I love to dance, I prefer to go barefoot at all times, I am opinionated and judgemental, love military men, enjoy all scary movies (even the cheesy ones), like to wear a lot of mascara, play with my hair, obsess about my hair, and I like all of that about me. I wouldn't change ME for the world.
Quotes and song lyrics that mean something to me...
"So don't let the world bring you down
not everyone here is that fucked up and cold
remember why you came and while you're alive
experience the warmth before you grow old"---Incubus
"I heard her cry
she smiles like a child with flowers in her hair
with blood on her hands into the sun she stares
she feels it die
I heard her cry
like the scream of the butterfly"---Acid Bath
"You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one"---John Lennon
"I am still far from being what I want to be, but with God's help I shall succeed"---Vincent Van Gogh
"Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens"---Jimi Hendrix
"Don't compromise yourself. You are all you've got"---Janis Joplin
"Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic"---Salvador Dali
"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched.They must be felt with the heart."---Unknown
"Always remember everything is connected"---Bill Kunkle 1/20/2007
"How many lives do we live? How many times do we die? They say we all lose 21 grams... at the exact moment of our death. Everyone. And how much fits into 21 grams? How much is lost? When do we lose 21 grams? How much goes with them? How much is gained? How much is gained? Twenty-one grams. The weight of a stack of five nickels. The weight of a hummingbird. A chocolate bar. How much did 21 grams weigh?"---Paul Rivers, 21 Grams
