I am here for Friends

About Me

You'll never really know me until you know me. I find humor in everything and especially enjoy being tongue-in-cheek. I'm a smartass and have a weak spot for people who can talk crap to me without making me feel like crap. I'm also a sucker for smarties who aren't pretentious. Not many of these people exist, I'll have you know.

I just graduated with a degree in Psychology and Sociology. I recently changed my career goal from clinical psychologist to licensed social worker. I'll spend the next several months thinking about grad school, so I'd appreciate any input. I changed my mind because I want to do more hands-on work than research, although research is inspiring. Wow, that was the nerdiest phrase I've ever typed.

I'm idealistic, loving, lazy, happy, hopeful, independent (sorta), and taken. I recently gave up on cynicism after meeting someone totally amazing.

If after reading all of this, you still want to talk to me...well, good luck!

My Interests

Sociology, Psychology (the more abnormal the better), some other "ology"s, laughing, vegetarianism, red shoes, poetry, doggies, kitties, cooking, Disneyland, travel, drama that doesn't involve me, unlimited text messaging, living with the love of my life, making out with my man, cuddling with my man, good grammar, rainy days, singing along loudly and badly, shaking my money maker, making money with my money maker, going to drug stores in the middle of the night to buy beauty supplies, not being able to hide my disgust, people who don't take themselves too seriously but still have pride, Clinique Happy Heart, being a natural redhead, Extra Polar Ice, catching Brian checking out the cans, and MAC makeup
