About Me

I work as a Receptionist/Vet assistant in a Veterinary clinic. I love animals. I like music, movies, plays, books, art , etc. I love spending time with my niece and nephew. I love going to concerts and being introduced to new music as well as introducing others to new music. Indie music appeals to me. I love singer/songwriters. I like supporting local musicians and artists. I am definitely an underdog kind of a person. I know I am an underdog, and I know I am sometimes the one standing in my own way. I also love baseball- Go Detroit Tigers! Brandon Inge and Curtis Granderson are my favorites. I like indie movies. sure once in a while its nice to see a cheesy hollywood film where you know everything before it happens, but usually I'll take a good indie film any day. of course, you can't go wrong with a good classic either. :)

My Interests



Katharine Hepburn. She is an icon but beyond that, she was one of the
most highly respected and talented actresses in film history. Unconventional,
Independant, Intelligent, Feisty You are never afraid to speak your mind and make no attempt to conform to other other people's demands or social norms. You might be seen as haughty and demanding at times but you just want to make sure you do your best on your own terms. Whenever your capabilities are questioned, you end up proving your critics wrong. You have the brains and the brawn to be the alpha-female in a man's world, always holding your own. Go, you!
