About Me

So I love living in Las Vegas and I love my friends here and everywhere! So much has changed in my life in the last year and I cant believe how different of a person I have become. Anyone who knew me before this, yeah, totally not the same. I grew up in So Cal and though I love Vegas there are times that I wish I was back there. Um...in my spare time, when I'm not working or going to school I like to hang out with my friends and family. I love going hiking in Red Rock and one of these days I WILL make it to Mt. Charleston. I really want to travel, but not so able to do that at the moment. I dont know what I want to do with this life, but you know, right now I think I am young enough and finally free enough to just sit back, relax, and watch it happen. I dont need to fret about it. Things are going to happen and I'm just ready to roll with it. If theres anything more I missed, just let me know!

My Interests

Reading and writing are my life, I love going to the movies and I am into almost every genre. Music, music is awesome and as one of those "quirky" people I tend to associate songs with certain times in my life and certain people who may or may not pass through it. Hanging out with my friends is another big one, I cant imagine a world without 'em! Drinking is also fun, and if you havent tried Agwa you are missing out!! Its neon green and oh so yummy! Whatever... I am willing to try anything once or twice but once my mind is made up...its hard to change it. I guess thats one of my flaws, but oh well deal. Blackjack is the worlds most great game ever...and I wish I could get the experience necessary to deal at a casino, but apparently you cant go to a dealing school and just become a dealer at a break-in casino...I'm really not sure how to get in, but damn if Im not trying!!

I'd like to meet:

There are so many people I would like to meet, famous people and unfamous (?) people alike. Right now I've given up on looking for my Prince Charming, so to speak, but you know what, I dont need a man or woman in my life to make me happy. I'm me, and if you can't accept that, I'm sorry but I'm not going to change for people anymore. You're just going to have to deal...Get MySpace Layouts from nUCLEArcENTURy .COM OR create your own using MySpace profile editor !!!

Music:

I have a wide selection of tastes when it comes to music...and other things... But I like Alternative, Pop, Rock, and Classic Rock, and some Country. Right now my favorite bands would have to be Taylor Swift and her beautiful and memory-inspiring song "Teardrops On My Guitar", anything by Flyleaf and Paramore, Korn, and "Piece of Me" by Britney Spears. I also love Sarah Bareilles' "Love Song" and some song by Rodney Atkins where there were going to get a divorce but then they werent. Whatever. Um... Offspring is a good band, and you can't forget Incubus. Goo Goo Dolls..yeah, them too. Lisa Loeb and Carrie Underwood, Evanescence, Akon. That song "Bartender" makes me laugh so hard, how many conjugations of the verk drink can there be in one song?

Television:

So I am totally engrossed in Law & Order, all three of them to be exact....and almost any show that showcases Forensic stuff..like Forensic Files, Cold Case Files, Body of Evidence, Murder by the Book, you know shows like that... I also like Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune. Thanks to my friends I am getting in Grey's Anatomy and ER, and seeing a more diverse spectrum of genres on the TV.

Books:

And here's where I sound like a total nerd.... Best Stephen King book: The Stand, hands down no exceptions. I have almost all of Stephen King's books, and I have yet to find one more interesting that The Stand. I even own it in Hebrew. I also like his Dark Tower series, and I am probably the only person who thinks that it is depressing. Other authors I like are....Dean Koontz, his Frankenstien series is captivating...now only if the last one would come out already so I can have some closure....100 Strokes of the Brush Before Bed by Melissa P. is something that everyone should read in high school, it just makes everyone aware of what people actually go through during their life.....Secrets of a Gay Marine Porn Star by Rich Merritt may have an interesting title but it is a really good book, if you can handle being asked thousands of questions of why you would read a book like that....Running With Scissors,Dry, Magical Thinking, Possible Side Effects by Augusten Burroughs, Alice In Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll, The Thin Pink Line (for every woman who wants to be pregnant but doesn't want the responsiblity of caring for a baby), The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks is essential, It's Called a Break-up Because its Broken (I love buying books for their titles if you cant already tell), Best of Women's Erotica Volumes 1 & 5, A Catcher in the Rye, The Great Gatsby, The Stepford Wives, All the Kings Men, And Then There Were None by Agatha Christy, Another Bullshit Night In Suck City by Nick Flynn... "Wonder When You'll Miss Me" by Amanda Davis it is so freaking awesome and weird at the same time..too bad it makes me kind of suicidal. Right now I am reading the classics, like Candide by Voltaire and Count Of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas. I don't know, I cant help but think that maybe fiction these days isnt so new as I once thought.

Heroes:

Natalie Portman. She is the only (currently alive, that I know of) that has dual citizenship with Israel and has served her mandatory two year enlistment and not tried to get out this obligation. I wish that more people who claim dual citizenship were willing to fight for what their nation believes in....
