About Me

Subaru is a proud sponsor of women who kick butt!! I love my car! Salmon still feels like home to me...Low maintenance and low-key. Pretty sarcastic, so don't let my quiet nature fool you; my spunky/crazy side will come out, so be warned! The thing I love most about people is when they're being true to themself instead of pretending to be someone else for popularity sake. Honest, laid back people gain my respect quite easily. Relationships with family and close friends are very important to me. My biggest dream in life has been to travel, I've been to Latvia and Mexico through church missions; I can't wait to someday go to New Zealand, Europe, Asia, India, countries with a lot of history and interesting cultures. I think as long as I'm happy with whatever it is I end up doing there's nothing to really regret. After a year at BSU I moved to CA to study massage, I've gone back and forth to Idaho to be with my parents; moved back to SoCal and FINALLY got my massage license *woohoooooo!!!*. Right afterwards I took the summer off and went to Alaska to work at my uncle's fishing lodge. I like trying new things while I'm still young, I have to experience all I can while I'm still able! *Right??* I look forward to someday staying in one spot and making it my home.. but only God knows what's in store for me! Now I'm back at BSU, hopefully refocused and ready to try something else! ..This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5

You Are the Girl Next Door!

You're caring, warm, and the girl that nice guys want to marry. Uncomplicated and simple, you've got an easy going attitude guys love. But this doesn't mean you're dull - far from it! You're a great conversationalist, and you're an expert at living the good life.

I'd like to meet:

Myspace has done awesome things for reuniting old friends... so I'm loving that.When it comes to celebs - Julia Roberts or Drew Barrymore.. they seem to be some of the more down-to-earth actresses in today's world.But back in reality? Just fun, spunky people up to trying and seeing new things. Up to meeting new people, but I'm not a friend collector, so if you want to add me as a friend...send me a message at least, and make it something more than "what up girl".

Television:

Sitcoms, Cop Shows: CSI & Without a Trace; I'll watch sports too, mostly basketball, football and baseball. I'd rather watch live sports, saw my first pro game in January 06... Lakers vs. Golden State, awesome game!! (Thanks Wendee!!)

Books:

Like reading for fun.. some reading for school as long as the class is interesting. Like a lot of different kinds of books, so Barnes and Noble is a dangerous place for our family to stop into!

Heroes:

What really makes a hero? My best friend Alex is a heroine of mine. She's always fun to hang out with, inspiring in that she always seems comfortable just being herself, her resilience is amazing. (I guess she's kind of addicting too.. heroin ya know.. haha.. ha... oh, not funny, sorry).I'll always look up to my big (little) sister... Lord knows I keep copying her anyway! (Why are most of my hero's shorter than me? Haha!)Then of course my parents too.. I'm grateful for the person they helped me to become, all the support they've given me through everything..Here's Jen (my sister) and I goofing off after our last bridesmaid duty!
