About Me

I'm a little bit of an Audrey Hepburn with a touch of Grace Kelly.I believe in being honest and kind and true to one's self is very important. I like to wake up with half glass full feeling and watching the sunrise and wake up with a good start. I believe that every person is good or capable of doing good.I have a job that I somewhat like and have decided what career I would like to get into. I have wonderful family and friends.If two words were to describe me, then they would probably be exuberant and creative. My friends tell me that I'm upbeat and very optimistic. My easy going and laid-back personality is what keeps me going in life. I love being around people, and if anything I'm far from quiet or shy.I've pretty much lived in New Jersey all my life, but I've traveled quite a bit. I've been to Hong Kong 3 times now!!, (Beijing, X'ian, Guilin, Shenzen) China, (Paris) France, (Colon) Germany, Belgium, (Amsterdam) Holland, Canada, Luxembourg, and some other places as well.My passions are music, writing poetry, and art. I play the piano and the clarinet. I love singing karaoke, dancing, especially swing, and bowling. I love going out and meeting new people. I listen to all types of music. My all time favorite bands are U2, REM, LIVE, COLDPLAY, and GREENDAY. I love writing, drawing, painting, and anything that has to do with creativity basically.Life is short so I try to make the best of each day and live each one to the fullest. : ) I open up easily and like to try new things. I'm outgoing, honest, kind, hard working, and a genuine person. If this sounds like a person you would like to talk to, drop me a line.
