I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Well, I'm originaly from South Florida (Ft. Lauderdale) and spent about 4 years in NYC before moving out here to LA. I adore being on the west coast. In fact, I don't know how I survived back there for so long. I love the fact that the weather is ideal. Hardly any humidity, no palmetto bugs and I don't think I've been bitten by a mosquito since I've been out here. No, I did not move to pursue an acting career like the majority of ppl here. There is enough drama in my life. I just needed a change of pace.My passion is traveling and experiencing new things. I want to go parasailing, hanggliding, skydiving and rock climbing!I enjoy having my home but I don't mind being away from it for too long. I don't have pets or plants to anchor me. One day I hope to have a child and maybe then I'll feel the need to stay home more often...one day.I hate fake plastic people..You're probably wondering why then did I move to LA. True, this town def has it's fair share of flakes but if you look long and hard you will find some amazing people that are on the level here. I have and I am blessed because of it.I don't usually add friends for the sake of having friends. I know just about everyone on my friends list unless you are an artist I find interesting. Please don't send me a friend request if you just want to increase your # of friends.I adore having company, the more the merrier I always say. They say friends are your chosen family. I love my family and adore having them around. I also enjoy spending my time alone. I have recently realized how important it is to have peace in my life. I am comfortable in my own skin and don't need many outside distractions. I've made some poor choices in my life and am taking steps to find my path to happiness. We are all in charge of our own destiny. If your not happy, take steps to change things! Life is too short. Be good to yourself and no matter what...NEVER SETTLE!!

Is Medium the new small?

I guess I just don't get it. You go to a fast food restuarant or wherever and you order a small drink only to be told that they only have med and large. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure ou...
