This is something I fear too many do, but I will NOT be the girl who settles. I deserve a man who loves ME. A man who is fully aware of ALL my quirks and flaws and can see past them to who I truly am. A man I am able to grow in my faith with! :-) Someone who compliments who I am and I him; who falls for the beauty within, for looks are fast and fleeting. I will wait for love. I pray one day it finds me. I hope when that day comes I'll be ready to receive it.
I'm naturally rather high strung, so I tend to need to meditate and journal a LOT! Running, reading, writing(short stories, poems,whatever mood strikes me), hanging with friends, SLEEPING!:), hugging trees, yes you heard me correctly!, and yoga help tremendously, not just with my emotional health but my physical health as well as I believe they are both intricately linked. I absolutely love traveling(when there's $ to be had!)as well as enjoying a nice meal or glass of wine with others. I LOVE horses and go horseback riding whenever I can. I'd love to have a horse of my very own to pamper and spoil...one day perhaps...I really miss playing my violin, need to get a decent bow and have it cleaned and restrung. Other than that I love being out in nature enjoying the day enjoying life. :-) Take me out to a park or lake anytime!
I'd like to meet:
Audrey Hepburn...(in theory) because she was a fascinating classy woman who was beautiful not just for her appearance but for her care, compassion, and desire to help others! I'm not trying to compare myself to her at all! I just found the test below and those were the results. :-) Grace Kelly would also be someone I'd love to have met. She lived one very fascinating albeit tragic life. She was head of the Red Cross while Princess of Monaco and helped get many famous celebrities involved in the cause. And when that day comes I'm looking forward to meeting my Savior :-)
Audrey Hepburn
You are Audrey Hepburn. You are a giving, caring person with a big heart, and beauty to match! You have been through alot, but you didn't let that get you down. The world loves you for who you are, inside and out.

Also, Wedding Crashers(oh hilarity)! My all time fav. to watch with friends ZOOLANDER!:-)Since they got rid of The Starship(our $2 theatre) haven't seen many lately! SUCK!
Television:
I actually don't even OWN a TV but if I get a chance I try to watch The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and/or The Colbert Report...like to keep it light, keeps me from running across the border to Canada...anywhere a teensy bit more enlightened! I was a huge Buffy fan, can't help it! They had David Boreanaz(aka ANGEL on it)I had SUCH a crush, always with the characters portrayed more so then the actual actors. Followed him to Bones, like that show as well. I admit, I do enjoy watching Gilmore Girls when given the opportunity. Haven't seen it in awhile. I really wanted Luke and Loreli to stay together. :-( I'm a HUGE fan of House & I love the old X-Files shows when Mulder(David Duchovny)was still on it. I had a huge crush on the character he portrayed as well. You know the type right? Though you definitely can't forget Friends reruns! Classic! ;-)

Heroes:
Anyone who has or is making a difference in this world(for the better)! Anyone with the love, compassion, care, will, drive, and motivation to press on against all odds to find their true calling, themselves(it's a LONG road to self-actualization let me tell ya!), and those who reach out to others with arms wide open. :)
Men See You As Choosy
Men notice you light years before you notice them
You take a selective approach to dating, and you can afford to be picky
You aren't looking for a quick flirt - but a memorable encounter
It may take men a while to ask you out, but it's worth the wait
How Do Men See You?
You Have a Melancholic Temperament
Introspective and reflective, you think about everything and anything.
You are a soft-hearted daydreamer. You long for your ideal life.
You love silence and solitude. Everyday life is usually too chaotic for you.
Given enough time alone, it's easy for you to find inner peace.
You tend to be spiritual, having found your own meaning of life.
Wise and patient, you can help people through difficult times.
At your worst, you brood and sulk. Your negative thoughts can trap you.
You are reserved and withdrawn. This makes it hard to connect to others.
You tend to over think small things, making decisions difficult.
What Temperment Are You?You Are A Lily
You are a nurturer and all around natural therapist.
People see you as their rock. And they are able to depend on you.
You are a soothing influence. You can make people feel better with a few words.
Your caring has more of an impact than even you realize.
