take the pain out of love & love won't exist

About Me

I want my life to be a movie...to live how one should live, without the fear of failure...knowing that at the end of the day, I can lay my head on the pillow and feel proud of who I am. For it is not death I fear, but the thought that I may go through life having never truly lived.

I'm a big New York Mets and San Francisco 49ers fan!!

My Interests

I love to travel. Love to learn about new places and experience new things. I have been fortunate enough to be able to travel to many places in this world, but there are still so many more on my list. Czech Republic, Netherlands, Croatia, Russia (St. Petersburg especially), Romania, Poland, & Bulgaria top my list of places I've yet to see that I can't wait to step foot in.

I am also a huge music fan. You might recognize me from Fine Tunes (RIP), the local music store in Watertown where I used to work. I own way too many CD's...it's an addiction. Love going to concerts and sitting in my room with the lights out and a good CD playing.

Other interests include playing volleyball (catch me Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday nights in Thomaston during the summer), going to the movies, reading, writing (currently writing a novel, tentatively titled "Goodbye Andrea Corr"), hanging out with friends, following the Mets and 49ers, and trying to find the meaning of my life.

I'd like to meet:

Movies:

I love watching movies. "Beautiful Girls" has got to be on the top of my favorites list. I had a crush on Natalie Portman's character, just like the main character in that movie. And the Winnie The Pooh speech...classic. Some of my other faves are: Shawshank Redemption, Tombstone, Love Actually, 10 Things I Hate About You, Fifth Element, Gattaca, EuroTrip, The Count Of Monte Cristo, Dear Frankie, The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremecy, The Bourne Ultimatum, She's The One, Vanilla Sky, Van Wilder, Dark City, Last Man Standing, Fallen, 8 Men Out, Good Will Hunting, and Thirteenth Floor to name a few.

Books:

I really like Edgar Allan Poe, "The Alienist" by Caleb Carr, "All Quiet On The Western Front" by Erich Remarque, "The Count Of Monte Cristo" by Alexandre Dumas and "The DaVinci Code" by Dan Brown. I also like to read books about Slovakia, Romania, vampire folklore, conspiracy theories, and greek mythology.
