I may not look it, but I'm a southern girl. I just recently moved back to my hometown after years of recess in my big playground I call London. I miss it.. I really do. I miss my friends the most. I miss traveling to a different country every three months, and going off for the weekend or spending the day in an old castle. I miss hearing at least 5 different languages just by walking 5 mins down the street, and I miss meeting up with my friends at Starbucks to talk about our day or complain about a boyfriend...I miss taking the train (belive it or not) even though I am thisclose to getting a new car...riding on the train gave me a chance to catch up on my new song additions on my ipod, read the newspaper, and slyly stare at the cute guy sitting across from me.Don't get me wrong, I love being back home. The weather is amazing, my family is with me, and goodness have I missed my American guys.. especially the southern ones. Never realized how much charm they had until I moved to another country.Nevertheless, I just know that Biloxi can never hold me for long. I'll stay for a couple of years, but eventually... I'll find a reason to fly away. I'm a city girl now..the metropolitan life has captured me, and I'm totally addicted.

CREATE YOUR OWN! - or - GET PAID TO TAKE SURVEYS!
You are Carrie. Cute, quirky and intelligent, men
find it so easy to fall in love with you but
things always seem to end in tears. you're a
commitment-phobe and you find it really hard
to get over your exes. Your dress sense is
to die for and you blow most of your money on
clothes, shoes and cocktails. Gay men love
you.
