Something's gotta give

About Me

I'm officially now graduated from Florida International University with a B.A. in Psychology and a Certificate in Women's Studies. I'm moving down to Florida City so I can be close to the Keys so I can pursue my dream of being a dolphin trainer. We'll see how that goes... :)

My Interests

As of this moment, I spend A LOT of time bowling. I know, you wish you were as cool as me. :) I average about 150...depending on which league...I'm working on it.I also love anything to do with the ocean. If only I could find a diving buddy...Just to add to my coolness factor, I love watching Drum Corps and anything to do with marching band. I will be a band geek for life!AND I love to go out and have a few drinks with my friends. Haven't been able to do that in awhile because of this whole "growing up thing," but it'll start happening again...soon hopefully. ;)

I'd like to meet:

Eh, there's really no one famous that I'm all that excited to meet. However, I'm all for meeting new open minded, down to earth people. Making some new friends in my area would be a plus. Anyone from Key Largo or Homestead??? :)

Music:

Mostly Rock and Country.
Check out one of my favorite bands, Common Type:

Movies:

Mainly Disney, Harry Potter, and typical Chick Flicks like Love Actually, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Sweet Home Alabama, The Prince and Me...you get the picture.

Television:

I absolutely LOVE Friends, ER, Charmed, and Everwood. And now my new obession is Lost. It's addicting!! I just can't get enough of them!!

Books:

I love all the Harry Potter books! I also like...The Red Tent and most of Dan Brown's books...mainly The Da Vinci Code. There are plenty of others but those are the books that I've been into lately.

Heroes:

My mom. She's been through so much and still manages to get up in the morning with a smile on her face. I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for her.

I love you Grandma, you’ll be missed.

Life is unfair

Death is so hard to handle.  It's unfair that we have to cope with it.  My life has officially changed forever.  There was still so much that I needed to tell him and learn from hi...

Weight Watchers

Yup, you read it right...I'm doing Weight Watchers. Most people that have known me for quite awhile must be really surprised. I've always been against diets for people that aren't majorly overweight...

On a lighter note...

I must be really dense because apparently the cats learn faster than I do. Jamie's mom got us a couple cat mats that give a slight static shock when stepped on. She placed them in front of the door ...

The election

I don't know if it's because I'm older this time, but this election all of a sudden became really important to me. I feel responsible for supporting women's rights...gay right's as well. We have no ...
