It's GREAT to be a FLORIDA GATOR!

About Me

I am a 20 something who has just moved to the DC area. I am currenty working as a real estate analyst and spend the off time checking out the new area. I am eager to set up a nice base here and meet some cool new people. I love football and hockey, dancing, hanging with friends, music, and checking out unique places, etc. Just the highlights...

My Interests

Music, tennis, dancing, travelling, singing, movies, fuzzy animals, GATORS!, hockey, kickboxing, singing, and a few other things

I'd like to meet:

Funny people, ones who laugh at themselves. Anyone who can name all the brat pack movies. People who adore little furry woodland creatures. The one. Someone who lives on an exotic beach. Someone who can make me laugh. Someone who doesn't mind me singing along to all the songs on the radio. Not rude people. Someone who loves a good gay parade in Brussels, even when you are definitley in the wrong place. Someone who can finish the rest of this...

Music:

I have ecclectic music tastes, all included except country and heavy alternative (no offensive). As for jazz, I can't live without Etta, Ella, and Billie, and of course the new sensation, Michael Buble. For pop and current hits, the stock of Black Eyed Peas has recently risen after seeing a great show here in Amsterdam, Joss Stone, Beyonce, and, wait a second, they all start sounding the same. In hip hop, I go for the obvious, Alicia Keys, 50 cent, Snoop Dogg, and every other foul mouthed guy with a good beat. Dance, Eric Prydz, Mylo, Lasgo, Shape:UK, Tiesto, and some other new Euro dudes. As for all the others, high on the chart of me is: Maroon 5, BB King, James Taylor, Van Morrison, Al Greene, and U2 (the classics)

Movies:

So all time favorites, no particular order: The Princess Bride, Pretty Woman, Breakfast Club, Ice Age, Spaceballs, Coming to America, The Girl Next Door, Good Morning Vietnam, Love Actually,the Power of One, and the list continues, just ask

Television:

Sex in the City (need I say more), Friends, Will and Grace, Fresh Prince, ER, Law and Order (the early ones), ESPN, Grey's Anatomy, and Emeril

Books:

I absolutely recommend: The Da Vinci Code, Dog Walking, Lovely Bones, The Time Traveler's Wife, The 5 People You Meet You in Heaven, Tuesday's with Morrie, The Awakening, The Great Gatsby, And there are a host of guilty pleasure nonsense books that I love, including anything by Jane Green

Heroes:

My mom. She has more courage, strenght, and moral fiber than anyone I know, or probably will ever know. She works 150% at everything she does and I aspire to be as wonderful a spirit as she is. The love that was sent through me was second to known. Everygirl should have a female, strong willed rolemodel like this, and if they need an example, I'm ready to give em.
