About Me


I'm Christina...
I'm 4'10" and brunette... and fiesty as hell! I'm hard-headed, stubborn, and a pain in the ass sometimes. But if I care about you I'll do anything in the world to make you happy.
I have a 2 1/2 year old son who rules my world. He amazes me daily and makes me smile constantly! Of course he's a ton of hard work but I've never felt more worthwhile in my life. Not a kid person? Cool... but don't even bother trying to get to know me!
I give probably the best back massages in the world. Seriously :).
I'm heading back into college hopefully in March for Graphic Design. It is honestly the one thing I've always been amazing with and it is the one thing I've always wanted to do. I could NOT be happier with my decision!!
To find me not smiling or laughing is quite rare. I don't keep those in my life that don't say the same :)
Cheaters, liars, snobs, and jerks have no place in my world!
It may not be evident, but I'm very intelligent. I know it gets overshadowed by my blonde moments and smartass comments, but under it all there is a genius IQ and a huge nerd..
On the rare occassion that I party, I go all out! I drink, dance, and completely live it up! What good is life if you can't let loose once in awhile?!
I'm a southern girl- and proud of it!
I always go with my gut feeling- at times it may make me look stupid or like a daredevil, but I always know my limits and I trust my instincts.
I work currently at a video store and I love it! Customer service is what I do- and I have always done it very well!!
I am dying to skydive and learn to dance.
I'm sick and tired of being let down and hurt by others in my life. Therefore, I'm relying only on myself from now on. I'm just now discovering who I actually am and what it feels like to be happy because of who I am and the choices I make.
I love bbq chips, fried food, green eyes, sunsets, algebra, getting caught up in a book, stormy days, dolphins, Kate Spade purses, making people smile, driving aimlessly, watching movies, heels, seeing my baby boy learn new things, and being around my best friends in the world...
A few things that make me insane: slow drivers, rude people, lack of maturity, my natural hair color, people that think they're above others, people with no common sense, getting asked if I want a kid's menu (for myself- I mean, seriously. I know I look young but not THAT young!!), waking up before 8am, and not calling if you say you will...
I'm kind of an odd-ball. I say some weird things sometimes...but all in all, I'm amazing! Ask anyone who knows :).
♥♥I think that's all I can come up with for now.

You won't be his first, his last, or his only. He's loved before, he will love again, but if loves you now, what else matters? He's not perfect, and neither are you and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he makes you laugh once, think twice, and admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him, and give him all you have. He is not going to quote poetry, he's not going to be thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you can break. Don't hurt him, don't change him, and don't expect too much from him. Smile when he makes you happy, cry when he makes you sad, and miss him when he's not there. JUST FALL IN ♥LOVE♥
Who are you to judge the life I live? I know I'm not perfect- and I don't live to be. But before you start pointing fingers, make sure your hands are clean.
As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down more than likely will. You will have your heart broken more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend- you'll blame a new love for things that an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast and you'll eventually lose someone you love more than anything in the world. So take too many pictures, laugh until you can't breathe, and love like you've NEVER been hurt, because every sixty seconds you spend unhappy is a minute of happiness you'll never get back. LIfe is too short to waste. Remember fear is only a 4 letter word..and let someone know what they are missing every chance you get!
Life is too precious to worry about the stupid things. Have fun, dance wild, fall in love, do what you want to do! Regret one thing so you learn how not to and don't let people who don't matter bring you down.
You gotta take the good with the bad, smile with the sad, love what you have, and remember what you had. Learn to forgive but never forget, learn from your mistakes but never regret. People change, things go wrong...just remember LIFE GOES ON!!

My Interests



Cars, movies, books, cooking...
I really want to be a mechanic. I think it's empowering for a girl (or anyone really) to be able to know what is wrong with their car and be able to fix it. I'm a total nerd and I love to curl up with a good book. Also, I really know my way around a kitchen. I enjoy creating new things and watching others enjoy something I worked hard on. I tend to watch quite a bit of tv also- mainly Gilmore Girls. I also love computers and graphic design. I'm a Photoshop pro (at least I've been told that). And I would give just about anything to have my own darkroom someday.

I'd like to meet:


Graphics & Layouts

I don't mean to sound stuck on myself, but I know I am amazing. I love with all my heart and I would move the universe for anyone I truly care for. I treat everyone with respect (even if they don't deserve it). I don't cheat, I don't lie.. And I expect all of these things in return. No matter what I say, I do love having doors opened for me and getting flowers... I'm sick of people in their 20s acting like 9 year olds. I just really want to meet someone with a future, someone with their head on straight, and someone that can hold up their end of an intellectual conversation.

I am done with relationships for awhile- nothing serious until I'm out of school (at least, that's the plan. I don't know if I can really stick with that though!). So right now, just looking for honest, decent, fun-loving people! And I will not reply if you send me a message asking for sex in any form or if you send the standard "hey. what's up?" message. Sorry!

Music:

I listen to just about anything. It all depends on the day, weather, and my mood. Country almost always fits though. Love Gretchen Wilson! But anything'll do really :). I just saw Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood in concert too- been wanting to see Brad in concert for years! Great time..

Movies:

I watch them. Lots of them. I work in a video store.. so duh! My recent favorites are Employee of the Month (b/c Dane Cook is my absolute favorite!), John Tucker Must Die ("I was just breathing. I, um, breathe a lot" and "You should totally wear your underwear to school"-- great lines!), Cars (Owen Wilson even makes a sexy car! lol), Over the Hedge ("But I like the cookie!"-- I'm such a kid sometimes), The Break Up (Jennifer Aniston is gorgeous), Her Minor Thing (it was a small title- quite unknown- but well worth watching)... a bunch of others I'm sure. Some classic favorites are Remember the Titans (b/c Jerry Bruckheimer is a genius), How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (love Kate Hudson...), What Lies Beneath (it still scares me), Cellular, Boiler Room, Memento...
I'm horrible at making this list. I've spent so much of my life watching movies... there are way too many good ones!
♥Don't let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game--Cinderella Story♥

Television:

Gilmore Girls (I have a serious addiction), Family Guy, Dancing with the Stars, Friends (who doesn't watch it)... College Basketball (U of L!)
And the Gilmore quotes!!
♥ Logan: Rory, you're special.
Rory: Like stop eating the paste special?
♥"I don't know what anything means anymore. I mean, I can't even read my own handwriting. What does this say? The person who wrote this should be dressed in a clown suit stuffing bodies under their porch."- Paris
♥"People can live a hundred years without really living for a minute. You climb up here with me, its one less minute you havent lived." -Logan to Rory
♥ "Youre breaking up, the, the house is going through a tunnel." - Lorelai to Rory
♥"I know you have very strict rules about dating and boys, but I just want you to know that I'm a good person. I don't smoke, I don't drink, I've never gotten a ticket, I'm healthy, I take care of myself, I floss. I never watch more than 30 minutes of television a night partly because I think it's a waste of time and partly because there's nothing on. I respect my parents, I do well in school, I never play video games in case they do someday prove that playing them can turn you into a serial killer. I don't drink coffee. I hate soda because the carbonation freaks me out. I'm happy to give up meat if you feel strongly about it. I don't mind wearing a tie. I enjoy playing those hymns on my guitar, and I really, really want to take your daughter to the prom." - Adam Brody- my god is he sexy!!-as Dave
♥LORELAI: Huh. You know what I just realized? Oy is the funniest word in the entire world.
RORY: Huh.
LORELAI: I mean, think about it. You never hear the word oy and not smile. Impossible. Funny, funny word.
EMILY: Oh, dear God.
LORELAI: Poodle is another funny word.
EMILY: Please drink your drink, Lorelai.
LORELAI: In fact, if you put oy and poodle together in the same sentence, youd have a great new catch phrase, you know? Like, oy with the poodles already. So from now on, when the perfect circumstances arise, we will use our favorite new catch phrase.
RORY: Oy with the poodles already.

Books:

I read a LOT. James Patterson and Nicholas Sparks are my 2 favorite authors. But I'm not terribly picky. If I pick it up and start reading, I'll most likely get hooked.

A few reccomendations though. If you're a mom, or about to be a mom, or planning on ever being one- read Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas by James Patterson. I cried my way through it (and I still do... like 34 times later).
All the husbands out there, read The Wedding by Nicholas Sparks. Get some ideas. Impress your wife :)
Diary of Anne Frank still makes me think about certain things differently (like 8 years later).
There's so many amazing books out there..

Heroes:


My mom. She's probably the best mom in the world and I know more than anything that she will always love me. Damien too. He's so tough, strong, determined, smart. He turned his life around and I respect that.
Miscellaneous heroes include good parents (it's HARD work!!), people that love each other enough to stay married, those in the military- especially the ones who deploy, anyone with a dream who is out there chasing it regardless of the circumstances.
