About Me

I think I'd get too tongue tied to meet Kate Beckinsale. *Siiiigh*

Let's play Build a Harem! I'll start with these beauties: (God bless Brazil!!!)

Henry Simmons is one gorgeous fella. He's definitely in the harem. Rrroooowwwwrrr!
And let's not forget sexy James Marsden!

A sexy car with sexy angels? Bring 'em on! =p

MinxAthena: a synopsis-
Social buttercup. Er, yeah, that's it. Closet homebody. "Classy geek" whatever that means. "Thesaurus head" which I hear is a ferociously witty dinosaur. Told I've got an old soul and a youthful spirit. Goofball (could you have guessed that one???) Laugh-a-holic. Philosopher. Smart ass. Independent. Easy going. Bubbly yet mellow (prolly cuz I cut down on sugar intake!) Voted "Coolest Auntie" and hence watch cartoons, play video games and keep up with pop-culture to keep my hip status. =p It would ruin my career if I had to choose a profession, but ultimately my lot in life is to inspire and be inspired, and to enjoy the pursuit of happiness! Tho' I'm told I'd make a great bartender/therapist. Tips are great, I suppose, and prolly more entertaining with booze around than to sit in an office nodding "uh huh" to people who need prozac. =)
Taking things too seriously is for people trying desperately to figure things out. Let me tell you a secret: whatever answers you're looking for, you already know it, you're just not ready to see it yet. And it's sooo simple! Life's too short to fuss about anything. So live it up! Thanks for dropping by to say hello! =)

Athena, you're a Skydiver!
You're open minded, extroverted, free-spirited, and independent. Chances are you're pretty liberal. You're like a magnet for love and affection. People adore you. And, thanks to that healthy dose of self-confidence, you're super-flexible.Chances are, you're a great leader at work. You're also a self-starter and will always volunteer to take on a job. You're also an excellent communicator and tend to spread your enthusiasm to others.And that's just scratching the surface!

Now remember kids, if at first you don't succeed, then skydiving isn't for you...

Athena, you're Smooth!
Hey there, slick! We think it's pretty safe to say that you're a Smooth Flirt. You've got all the right moves, and you're confident that your target will appreciate all your winks and smiles. All it takes is the perfect line, right? Maybe so, as long as you deliver it with your charm meter set to "stun." Your flirting style is the perfect mix of body language and pure animal magnetism. With you on their trail, how can your prey possibly hope to get away? Seduction is inevitable. Just make sure not to overdo it. There's something to be said for simple, direct conversation. Your way with words and smooth moves guarantee that you'll hit the bullseye.
What type of flirt are you?

What Color Is Your Aura?
brought to you by Quizilla

You Are 40% Boyish and 60% Girlish
You are pretty evenly split down the middle - a total eunuch. Okay, kidding about the eunuch part. But you do get along with both sexes. You reject traditional gender roles. However, you don't actively fight them. You're just you. You don't try to be what people expect you to be.
How Boyish or Girlish Are You?

My Interests

Minx Madventures in ScrollyVision:

Lots! Let's start with outdoorsy stuff, like hiking, mtn biking, camping, off roading, rock climbing. Tennis. Stunt driving, haha! Dark chocolate. Sunflowers. Legos. Sleep. Music. Colors. Clouds. Trying new things. Dancing. Leisure reading. Fantasizing. Kissing. Gorgeous men and women. Geeks. Zany personalities and party animals. Philosophy. Spirituality. Vampires & werewolves.

I'd like to meet:

Oddball? Wacky? Smart ass? Fantabulous! Come out, come out wherever you are! Note: there IS, however, a line between wacky and lunacy of the scary, stalker kind.

If you're someone who wants to be "friends" but you don't bother to write, is there a point in adding each other?

You are the Fool card
The Fool fearlessly begins the journey into the unknown. To do this, she does not regard the world she knows as firm and fixed. She has a seemingly reckless disregard for obstacles. In the Ryder-Waite deck, she is seen stepping off a cliff with her gaze on the sky, and a rainbow is there to catch her. In order to explore and expand, one must disregard convention and conformity. Those in the throes of convention look at the unconventional, non-conformist personality and think What a fool. They lack the point of view to understand The Fool's actions. But The Fool has roots in tradition as one who is closest to the spirit world. In many tribal cultures, those born with strange and unusual character traits were held in awe. Shamans were people who could see visions and go on journeys that we now label hallucinations and schizophrenia. Those with physical differences had experience and knowledge that the average person could not understand. The Fool is God. The number of the card is zero, which when drawn is a perfect circle. This circle represents both emptiness and infinity. The Fool is not shackled by mountains and valleys or by her physical body. She does not accept the appearance of cliff and air as being distinct or real.
