I am here for Friends

About Me

"I'm not going to say I'm perfect, but I'm better than anyone ever could or will be at anything and everything."
Okay, I don’t really believe that. Well, sometimes I do, but usually when I say stuff like that I’m just kidding. I’m a twenty year old student and [still] go to Fresno City College. After flip-flopping for the past three years as to what I want to be when I grow up, I’ve finally reverted back to my original plan of becoming a teacher [having a hand in molding the minds of tomorrows leaders excites me].
One of my major goals for the next five to seven years is to be in charge of my own first grade class and begin teaching, however I’m fully aware that this may blow up in my face and the possibility that I may be in college until I’m thirty is looking more and more like a reality with each passing day.
Currently I am the Events Coordinator (ha!) for a local prosthetics company. Essentially, I sit around and talk to people that only have one eye all day. My past occupations include bag boy, Disney Cast Member and "arriving communications specialist" (I delivered papers -- Oooh).
I just turned twenty one and intend on applying for every single Reality show I possibly can. Race around the world? Perfect. Living on an island for a month covered in crap? Why not? Plastic surgery to raise my self-esteem and show the world I can be as beautiful on the outside as I am on the inside? You got it!
I could go on and on but it's probably best for all parties involved if I stop here. Just be warned, if we talk for long enough, chances are I'm going to end up having a crush on you.

My Interests

-Enjoying every second of life.
-Spending time with my different groups of friends.
-Self improvement.
-Laughing at myself and others [including the handicapped].
-Producing/Directing/Starring In home-made horror movies with my cousin, Kathleen.
-Singing along with the radio in the car on the way home at the top of my lungs. Badly.
-Art, good food, photography, trying new things, culture blah blah blah.

I'd like to meet:

I'm happy with my current group of friends, but I'm in no way opposed to gaining a few new ones here and there. Fun, interesting, goofy, and/or exciting are a must.
