About Me

My name is Dawn and I am 25 years old. I work on an ambulance as an EMT (Emergency Medical Technician). I love dogs, hiking, jet skiing, geocaching and just getting outside in general. I enjoy many types of music. The only music I really don't like is opera....everything else is pretty much free game.I have made it to the top of Mount Lassen (10,451 feet)3 times so far. I keep a hiking journal so that when I am older I can look back at all the hikes I've done....cheesy I know. In the meantime I am also working on an AA in history. After that, I plan on going to nursing school and eventually work in an ER for a career.

My Interests

I love hiking,geocaching, scuba diving, outdoor photography, camping, basically anything that involves being outside! As far as water sports, I love jetskiing (the "it hurts when you fall" stand up jetskis) and kneeboarding. I'm hoping to try skiing this year. Cooking is also starting to grow on me. Watch out Betty Crocker here I come!I love dogs! I think they are just about the greatest thing on earth. Mine is kinda like my kid...she even talk back (well......she groans. LOL). I've basically grown up most of my life with a dog. Maggie is my world, well, along side my boyfriend.

I'd like to meet:

I'd love to have a chat with John Chatterton and Richie Kohler about their historical dives!

Music:

I'm totally and completely enthralled with music. I can't get enough of it, it's a huge of my life. My music tastes are very eclectic, I like everything from Frank Sinatra to Tim McGraw to even some Eminem.

Movies:

I'm really into movies......but not scary ones! I love action movies like National Tressure, Indiana Jones, Davinci Code, and Premonition. And of course, I'm into chick flicks like Sleepless in Seattle, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, etc. (probably because I'm a chick....lol).

Television:

I'm not into TV as much as I used to be, but I love Family Guy, Good Eats, Ghost Hunters, Deep Sea Detectives, Unsolved History, and Mysteries of The Deep.AND TODAY!!! SUPERBOWL!!!!!! SUPER BOWL RAP

Books:

I am a HUGE book addict! I have 2 book shelves that are overflowing with books. I usually read everyday. I love Dan Brown! Some of the really good books I have read are: Shadow Divers, all the harry Potter books (but so far Half Blood Prince is THE best),Deception Point, Angels and Demons, Da Vinci Code, Cracking the Da Vinci Code, and Velocity. There are many others.....but way to many to mention!
