About Me

...you think you know...
I'm a 22 year old girl from Denham Springs, Louisiana. For the most part, I consider myself to be a pretty laid-back person and easy to talk to. Like anyone else, I have my moments, but when it comes down to it, I am happy with myself. I believe that's all that matters in the end. I question myself, doubt myself, and wonder if I'm going in the right direction. Though, I think I've finally made up my mind as far as a part of my future goes.
I've lived in Louisiana for a total of 18 years now, off and on. We have a love hate relationship. For example, I love the history and the food and the culture that Louisiana brings. I hate the bigotry, hatred and closed-minded people that roam the road-kill infested streets. Though, I've recently found a group of friends that have pretty much changed my life. They're my support system and everything I could want in a group of friends.
I love these people more than they will ever know. They have been there during the hardest times of my life, and I will forever be appreciative. Mess with my friends, you mess with me. And, speaking of friends, if you are going to add me to your friends' list, please take the time to send a message and "state your purpose." I've had too many friends requests that use me as a mere way to bump up their numbers. No message - no friend.
There's a lot more to me than what's above, but I feel that the rest is only for the privileged. I give as I get and I respect when I feel respected.
You can contact me here! And please, don't be shy! I'm usually the shy one, so it makes me happy when people say hello!
