About Me

You are The Wheel of Fortune

Good fortune and happiness but sometimes a species of intoxication with success

The Wheel of Fortune is all about big things, luck, change, fortune. Almost always good fortune. You are lucky in all things that you do and happy with the things that come to you. Be careful that success does not go to your head however. Sometimes luck can change.

.. I hate telling people about myself. I never know what to say. Ok, I guess sometimes I am quiet but not becuase I am shy. I like to soak everyting in. I am trying to get into a nursing program right now. I am an only child and proud to be a lefty. I am quirky and proud to say wierd. I never really fit into any one group or clique and therefore I have a really diverse range of friends. I like to drink tea with sugar and milk and I carry a nalgene water bottle EVERYWHERE I go. So much so that my friends tease me about my "linus blanket" I guess some would call me a "hippie" but I don't consider myself that. I am a bird lover - I love to just sit and watch birds. I also love to go places - anywhere. The ocean, the city or just drive somewhere new. I like to dance and sing. I love to learn - about anything and so I ask alot of questions. I love ideas and am open minded. I believe in synchronicity.
