"YOU dont know what you have until it's gone...the biggest mistake in love is giving up on your dreams...people can influence you so much that you can lose yourself and your values in life...don't let these people take you down that road, as it leads to self-destruction. Recognize the people who really care and cherish it- they will give you the world, rather than take it leaving you empty handed with regrets...only a fool thrives on the attentions of 'strangers'..." ME-xoxo ****
"Love, for many people, for the majority indeed, is not really love, but a mixture of the desire to love, and the desire to be loved, plus a willingness to do anything to show and evoke this sentiment, and consequently to be more comfortable in one's own interior life" -unknown (but i like!!)

Well, here goes! The new and improved about me! =) Where to begin...I am a very passionate person- I love life, music, interesting people, culture, animals, etc...I am living in Las Vegas at the moment, with a career as a model/artist/animal enthusiast/entrepreneur. Don't get me wrong, though...When I am not working crazy hours in crazy places, doing crazy things, I love normal. I love to relax, have a "home-base". I am a dreamer at their worst =) My head is always in the clouds, but I have a grasp on reality as well. I am very driven in my careers, they are definitely my life's art and enjoyment. I'm a very fast learner, especially in life experiences. I love music, played numerous instruments growing up, and still play my piano and sing from time to time. I love to perform and be on stage, I have no fear or shame...haha. I have practiced and studied eclectic dance (turkish and egyptian bellydance) on my own for a number of years now, and hope to pursue traditional dance again as well. If not the performing/visual arts in the modern aspect, I would love to pursue my love of history and historical art/culture. If my career goes where I want it to, I would thrive on financing expeditions (and taking part in) throughout Egypt. Another personal goal in that aspect would also be to help/continue with, or under, Zahi Hawass in restoring and returning Egyptian antiquities to the home land and museum. (www.drzahihawass.com for more info...its really neat!) Anyways, on with the "about me"....I have moved all over the USA, my father is a city planner...so I have been to a lot of interesting places, seen more than a lot of people my age. My life's ambitions are family/love(humor!!), financial stability, and culture! =) Speaking of age, I have a habit of dating and seeing people older than myself (my max is 15 years older...lol)...I like people who are aware of the world and life; know what they want, how to get it, and achieve personal satisfaction/ contenment! Places I enjoy are Ultralounges or chill bars where I can have my martini, relax and enjoy my company. Clubs on occaision are fun, but the crowds of tourists grabbing my butt dont really thrill me. I love Arabic/Hookah lounges ...anything eclectic or different will spark my interest. I love going to Operas, musicals, shows...I am a big fan of Andrew Lloyd Webber/Sarah Brightman. Anything with fine art inspires me...I love to paint with oils (when I have the time), draw with charcoal, design clothes/accessories, etc... I am a genuinely happy person (most of the time), I love my friends, my 3 doggies (a Great Dane, Shih-tzu, and Maltese--they are my kids!)I try to give positive energy =) I believe in karma, as well as various other spiritual and religious beliefs, but claim no religion alone (even though I was raised Catholic). I am a romantic by far, but my grasp on realism is there as well. I just prefer to be the intimate thinker. =) xoxo
"Yes: I am a dreamer. For a dreamer is one who can only find their way by moonlight, and punishment is that I see the dawn before the rest of the world."
Men See You As Choosy
Men notice you light years before you notice them
You take a selective approach to dating, and you can afford to be picky
You aren't looking for a quick flirt - but a memorable encounter
It may take men a while to ask you out, but it's worth the wait How Do Men See You?
