I have so many interests, and I discover more every day. The biggest interests in my life currently are psychology, criminology, and education I love the way the criminal mind works, and studying it, especially stalkers. Yes, I have had one, thats why it peaks my interest.
I would like to meet people that capable of having a decent conversation, someone that has their own thoughts and not afraid to express it, someone who is capable of thinking outside of the box. If it is celebrities that I would have to list then there would be three people I would have to list that I would be star struck over: Shemar Moore, Ginuwine (Elgin Baylor Lumpkin), and Jay Hernandez.

As far as movies go, I like good dramas and comedys, and of course if there is some romance thrown in, it makes it even better. Favorite movie of all time is Dirty Dancing, but I also love Diary of a Mad Black Woman, The Green Mile, The Five Heartbeats, Top Gun. If it can bring a tear to my eye because of a good story line, I will like it. If it can make me laugh so hard it hurts, then I will like it. Just keep me away from horror because I will not watch it.
I am a news fanactic, I like to keep up on current events and what better way than through television news broadcasts because news papers are too far behind. I also love the CSI's (Original and Miami), Without a Trace, Criminal Minds (Gotta love Shemar Moore), Law and Order Special Victims Unit and it is ashame that the District is no more. Other than that I am an avid Dr. Phil fan (maybe because I have a degree in psych and I understand where he is coming from) and Young and The Restless.
I love to read, just don't have alot of time to do so. My favorite author has to be Eric Jerome Dickey. He makes his characters come to life so well its like you are living the story along with them. I also tend to lean towards Zane, and Omar Tyree. Other than that I find myself reading my exhaustingly boring textbooks and assigned readings. I like well written books, but scholarly well written books bore me, even when I know what they are trying to get across. Give me a good romance novel any day, I said a good one, not a trashy one.
I have no heroes other than myself. I am a single mother of a 6 year old who is working full time and in graduate school full time, and I don't give up on things that I am bound and determined to get. It took me 7 years, a stinct in the military, and two years of working in a prison, many of those years teaching in daycares, and a few bouts of depression to get that first degree. I have been drug through the mud by my daughter's father, and still I have the confidence to be by myself and hold my head up as well as pursuing my dreams of education and career goals.
