About Me

Go Gators!!! Born and raised in Gainesville, FL...the BEST college football town in history. I'm very happy to be done with Gainesville and to be back down in Tampa for a long while (hopefully)...except for the fact that a certain someone is not down here with me. Otherwise, I have a great new roommate and things are rocking along pretty well at the moment. I am a huge sports fan, and enjoy playing in my spare time too. I love beer (Yuengling, Original Coors, Sol, Red Stripe, and Becks are my faves), RUEHL, shoes I own and shoes I can't yet afford, the Florida Gators, shopping, the beach (any time, any coast), being blonde (thank you Carl...you are a god), pearls with everything!, sports (football, baseball, soccer, softball, golf), nachos from Champps, being around people, going out to drink and/or dance, music, the Gator chomp, traveling, watermelon margaritas, living in the sunshine state, guacamole, chocolate chip cookies, my dad's lake house at night, my friends, my cat (Miss Meeko), meeting new people, enjoying my life and learning something new every damn day. I have recently developed somewhat of a fondness for country music at times (thanks Kyle). I'm going through a lot of changes both internal and external at the moment and will be glad when things in my life are not so much in a constant state of flux. I've learned a lot in the past 8 months, and especially in the last 4-6 months (thanks again Kyle). I'm still working towards that career in sports medicine...I'll get there someday, but why hurry? I love meeting new people and trying new things. I recently read a new quote by John F. Kennedy that has served as a bit of inspiration for me here lately... "Change is the law of life. And those who only look to the past or present are certain to miss the future."

Reflection comes at unexpected times..

Sitting by myself watching the sunset at a beach in Jamaica on Christmas as it occurs to me that a large part of me is inevitably lost...no, not lost in the moment, and no, not lost due to t...
