About Me

When you're young, your whole life is about the pursuit of fun. Then, you grow up and learn to be cautious. You could break a bone or a heart. You look before you leap and sometimes you don't leap at all because there's not always someone there to catch you. And in life, there's no safety net. When did it stop being fun and start being scary? I've grown up in Birmingham, Alabama my whole life. I am the youngest of four girls. Yeah, I was spoiled. In fact, I think I still am! I am currently attending UAB as a junior, pursuing a degree in Pharmacy. Hopefully this fall, I will be going to either Samford or Auburn. I am keeping my fingers crossed! I have been a pharmacy technician for 4 years. I love what I do and look forward to doing it for the rest of my life. Unfortunately, I am an over-analyzer which causes me to worry about everything. But really, I'm just a simple girl at heart who loves to laugh until I cry. I am very sarcastic...always joking around. Therefore, most people do not know when to take me seriously.If having things turn out the way you wanted them to is a measure of a successful life then some would say I was a failure. The important thing is not to be bitter over life's disappointments. I am scared of making mistakes. I am scared to stumble and fall, but most of the time the greatest rewards come from doing the things that scare you the most. Maybe I will get everything I wish for, maybe I will get more than I could ever imagine. Who knows where life will take me. The road is long, and in the end the journey is the destination. Here lately, I've been thinking a lot about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the you that you love, well, that's just fabulous. I've only told one person in my entire life that I loved them. Looking back on it now, I don't think I really knew what love was. So, I'm looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love. I'd like to think that people have more than one soulmate. I cannot wait to find mine. ---"When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with someone, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible." I'm looking for that guy who makes me smile. I know that when I do find him, it will be worth the wait. But can you get to your future if your past is present? Maybe the past is like an anchor holding us back. Maybe, you have to let go of who you are to become who you will be.

I'd like to meet:

Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate. Without them, what would shape our lives? Perhaps if we never veered off course, we wouldn't fall in love, or have babies, or be who we are. After all, seasons change. So do cities. People come into your life and people go. But it's comforting to know the ones you love are always in your heart. I have a lot of people that I can call friends, but it's hard to find people who will love you no matter what. Luckily, I found three of them. I love my friends all for different reasons. Kaylei (KayKay)-what can i say. She is my bestest. she makes me laugh. she's the total opposite of me and i love it. we laugh at the stupidest things and always have fun when we are together. I can tell her anything and i know she wont judge me for mistakes i've made. because no matter what I've done...she has probably done something worse! Jessica (Jess)- because no matter how long we go without talking..weeks or even months, we pick up right where we left off. She will always be a best friend no matter where life takes us. Stephanie (Stephy)- because her name rhymes with mine! Ha! No really....she's an awesome friend even if you do have to beg her to hang out with you. she's coming around though! So when it comes down to it, you shouldn't have to sacrifice who you are just because somebody else has a problem with it. No matter who broke your heart, or how long it takes to heal, you'll never get through it without your friends. I love meeting new people and making new friends. With each person i meet, I find out a little bit more about myself and who I am and want to become. Having friends, great friends...is the best feeling in this world :

Books:

I would love to say I'm a book lover, but I'm not. Sadly, I'm one of those people that judges a book by its cover, literally.

My older sister, Pam, is my hero. I have looked up to her for as long as I can remember. I hope that when I become a wife and a mother, I will be half the woman that she is.
