About Me

"This life you were given.. it was made for something beautiful."
I'm Courtney, I'm 21 years old and I have a pretty damn good life. I'm from Connecticut, but my family moved to Apex, NC 10 years ago, and this is where I call home. Now I live here by myself & my Dad, brother and sister moved to Wilmington. I'm finally in the real world.. paying my own bills and living my own life. My family is extremely important to me, and I'd do anything for them. My friends are amazing and wouldn't trade them for anything in the world. I have a wonderful boyfriend, Dustin, who makes me happier than I've ever been before in my life. I can't wait for our future together :) I'm very stubborn, sarcastic, and emotional.. but I love to have a good time. I ALWAYS think I'm right.. until you prove me wrong, and even then I'll have a hard time admitting to it. I make mistakes, but I learn from them.. and I have the best intentions for everything I do. I love the summertime - because.. I mean who doesn't? And I love the fall because of Thanksgiving, and I get to see all of my family.
So far I've been through a lot in my life to know what's worth fighting for, and when to give up. But I am very appreciative of the life that I do have, and I plan on making the most of every day that God has given me.
"Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So love the people who treat you right, and forget about the ones who don't. Believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. No one said it would be easy.. they just promised it would be worth it."

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I already met him..
He makes me feel alright. He took away all the pain I've ever felt. From my ex, my mom, everyone. He took it away, and I don't hurt anymore. And I know he cares, the he really loves me. He makes me feel right, complete, sane. He makes me believe loving him is okay, that everything's going to be okay. And years from now, loving him will still be the right thing. I can't really explain why I love him, I can't explain why I love anyone. It's not possible. But I can put as much of a reason to it as possible. It's hard not to love someone that takes away all the pain you've ever felt.

And of course my wonderful friends..
The ones who have made me laugh uncontrollably for absolutely no reason. The ones I sit there and watch my favorite movies and eat a tub of ice cream with. The ones who have made my life better. The ones who have seen me at my happiest, and the ones who have seen me at my worst. The ones who stop my mistakes. The ones who made my mistakes worth while. The ones who laugh about my drunk ass the night before with. The ones who made my drunken night worth staying up for. The ones I became attached to, emotionally and physically. The ones who, after all these years and all these mistakes, still manage to be seen with me in public. The ones who won't be going anywhere anytime soon, regardless of distance. The ones who just simply make my life worth living. I love you all.

my Mom.. she had more strength than I could ever dream of having, and I only wish to be half the woman she was one day. ♥

"My identity lies firmly & gently on one fact; I am my mother's daughter."

"So what would you think of me now.. so lucky, so strong, so proud? I never said thank you for that, and now I'll never have the chance. And if you were with me tonight I'd sing to you just one last time. A song for a heart so big, God couldn't let it live."

And of course my Daddy, he's the greatest man in the world, and I'll always be his little girl :)
