About Me

I'm an honest, nice, devoted person. I love my boyfriend, Mike, and our cat, Jezzy. I'm a second grade teacher and this is my 7th year teaching. Teaching takes up most of my time and energy. (I also work way too many hours for free.) I like to travel and want so much to do more of it! I've never been married, don't have any kids, and still don't know if either is meant for me. I hope so, but you know, these things are hard to do without "Mr. Right"! Commitment issues seem to hinder my progress in these areas. I do, however, have a nephew that I love dearly and a family that I'm grateful for. I wish I had more time to hang with my family and friends. Life just keeps picking up speed and I'd like it all to just slow down! It seems life is not worth much when it's all about work and just trying to survive. It's the people who we spend our daily lives with sharing life's struggles and joys that make life worth living. I wish our culture didn't make it so difficult to balance work and a personal life. I think we should work 4 days and have 3 days off each week! How great that would be!

I got my own Free MySpace Layout from Pyzam.com

My Interests

Jezzy in the House!!Dancing (Can you teach me salsa?), hiking, walking, boating, jet skiing, camping, curling up on the couch, drinking some red wine, watching a good movie, bbq-ing, visiting the ocean, singing out loud like nobody's listening. Love to see and explore new places. Have a strong desire to travel more and experience different cultures. Always interested in connecting with sincere people. Like big words and good quotes :) Have any?

The Keys to Your Heart
You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.

In love, you feel the most alive when everything is uncertain, one moment heaven... the next moment hell.

You'd like to your lover to think you are stylish and alluring.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was insecure and in constant need of reassurance.

Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily. What Are The Keys To Your Heart?Take the quiz:
How romantic are you?

Sentimental sweet heart!
You are the type who just makes there heart melt.. GOOD JOB! You are as romantic as it gets!! Every moment with you makes ur g/f or b/f feel special

Quizzes by myYearbook.com -- the World's Biggest Yearbook!

I'd like to meet:

Honest, fun people who like to get out and do things. People who work hard and value their time off. People with goals in life who are working to make them happen. Couples who like to do outdoor activities and hang with other couples. ANYBODY WHO WANTS TO OWN THEIR OWN BUSINESS, BE THEIR OWN BOSS, HAVE CONTROL OVER HOW MUCH MONEY THEY CAN MAKE, TRAVEL THE WORLD, AND GET ONE OF THE LAST FEW WRITE OFFS AVAILABLE ON TAXES!!!

Music:

My interests vary from Prince, Madonna, Nickleback, Pussycat Dolls, Chris Daughtry, Usher, Mariah, india.arie, Eagles, Lenny Kravitz, alicia keys, Alanis Morissette, Enrique Iglesias, Santana, Fleetwood Mac, Guns N Roses, Metallica, No Doubt, Enigma...anything to sing along and dance to, i.e. club jams....anything romantic, i.e. Marvin Gaye, Sade...a bit of country, i.e. Faith Hill, Shania...to whatever I hear from others and find cool, i.e. gorillas...I'll listen to just about anything and decide later! i.e. Eminem, Marilyn Manson

Movies:

anything that MOVES me: true life stories, a good drama, suspense thrillers, romantic comedies, the occasional horror flick. Can appreciate an action film here and there (but get enough action at my job!). I don't run too fast to see science fiction usually. Some I like off the top of my head are Pretty Woman, Alive, Seabiscuit, Good Will Hunting, Titanic, Meet the Fockers, The Notebook, Cast Away, After Sunrise & Before Sunset, Under the Tuscan Sun, The Game, Unfaithful, Indecent Proposal, The Juror, What Lies Beneath, the original Deuce Bigalow. Deuce in Europe was ridiculously stupid! So, if you're in the mood.....go. I don't watch many movies more than once or twice. Too many to see and a waste of time to me. Rather be doing something more exciting! If you know any worth really sitting down for, or good for cuddling on the couch, give me the titles would ya?!

Television:

As of late it's still Friends (always and forever), King of Queens, Deal or No Deal, 1 vs. 100, Grease; You're the One That I Want, and American Idol. I also like The Bachelor and Dancing With the Stars. Mike flips channels so much it's difficult to get too attached to much.. ha ha..love you baby!
Take the quiz: "Which Victoria's Secret Angel are you?"

Gisele Bundchen
You are nice, trendy, and love to have fun!

Books:

Don't read much for pleasure. People Magazine entertains me. Short and Sweet. Love books, buy them, start them, then set them down and there they sit. I'll pick them back up, someday. I teach children to read and read aloud to them daily. That's enough. Oh, and I like when others read out loud to me!

Heroes:

My immediate family members, Wonder Woman! Oprah! Martin Luther King, Jr., Nelson Mandella (check out his 1994 Inagural Speech), anyone who can be positive and inspirational to others, and good looking movie stars like Jude Law, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp just to name a few
