About Me

I grew up in Hawaii. Lived in San Francisco for 3 years.
Married my best friend who is a Marine and a GENIUS (just don't tell him I said that).
We live near San Diego, which I love- it's just like back home, only you get to drive farther before you reach a cliff.
I LOVE QUOTES.
I can speak a little Japanese.
I'm obsessed with anything to do with Boston.
I have a fondness for learning and am a self-improvement junkie.
I procrastinate too much, but i'm workin' on it.
I let my heart lead the way in basically everything I do and sometimes that means I get my feelings hurt but in the end I think i'm a better person for it. But I may be overthinking this. :)
I overthink things and probably stress too much but also I think that sometimes it helps me make better decisions.
I pick up on other people's emotions right away and often end up feeling them as if they were my own.
I'm intrigued by the Buddhist philosophy on life.
I love kissing in the rain.
Growing up, my grandma was my best friend.
I rarely go a day without talking to one of my sisters.
I'm a total Gemini and often have a hard time making up my mind.
I think the dollar store ROCKS. I have a Siamese kitty named Goku.
I love meeting new people.
I have a weird obsession with pi (I shout it out when the time hits 3:14).
I'm 27 and trying really hard to savor every second of every day and live life with aloha.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

No one! I'm anti-social. No soup for you!

The one with the AWESOMEST wizard there ever lived

J woke up this morning and ran to Walmart to get me a copy before i'd gotten out of bed.  I may now heart him just as much as I do Harry Potter.
