I am here for Friends

About Me

My name is Lonni. I'm a psychology major at Washington State Univ.-Vancouver. My focus is neuroscience. I am a "nontraditional" college student (a nicer way the U uses to say OLDer, lol.) I split with my daughter's dad 5 years ago, after several years together. It's hard to trust again, so I don't really put myself out there too much...maybe the right person could help to turn that around, though.

I feel happy and priviledged to be starting over in life and training for a second career. I'm fun-loving and very young-at-heart. (Not to be confused with immature or irresponsible. Not the same thing :)

I think people are way more important than things, and that the qualities that are most unique about a person are what make him/her truly priceless.

I’m a patient “Lady-in-Waiting” for my equally patient and “to-be-deservedly-♥adored♥ (by me) ‘Mr. Right’ ”

I think Alice rocks. I AM Alice! ~~The grown-up version—and yes, I am in touch with reality—well, most of the time…

~~♥♥♥~~ Besides, we psych majors are expected to be a little odd =(^..^)=

Online friends are nice to have. I get along with friends of all ages. Mostly, I just like people who are REAL.

Kindly refrain from making negative comments...what's that? Oh,YEAH?!!! ...
well...

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Did someone say Neurotic?!!! Oh, God!...I knew it! LOL. (But that's mainly based on how I unrealistically view how others view ME. Yes, I'm shy and rather distrustful. I have my reasons.) And, yes, I am the artsy, introverted (but not tormented) type. But don't get scared away...hey, come back!♥ It's just a by-product of my somewhat dysfunctional childhood :/ And we psych majors all tend to be somewhat neurotic. It's true. (If we were totally sane, we wouldn't go into psychology.)
On the plus side, I have beaten the odds by turning out to be very empathetic, conscientious, agreeable, and open...and totally nonviolent--I swear. LOL. I am a great listener and encourager, and if you have me for a friend, you have a true friend. (Try me.)

My Personality

Neuroticism 43
Extraversion 3
Openness to Experience 79
Agreeableness 65
Conscientiousness 73
"You do not experience strong, irresistible cravings and consequently do not find yourself tempted to overindulge, however you are sensitive about what others think of you. Your concern about rejection and ridicule causes you to feel shy and uncomfortable around others. Your fears that others will criticize or make fun of you are exaggerated and unrealistic. You tend to feel overwhelmed by, and therefore actively avoid, large crowds. You often need privacy and time for yourself. You like the security of tradition, but sometimes have a desire to bend the rules and challenge conventional thinking. You are tenderhearted and compassionate, feeling the pain of others vicariously and are easily moved to pity, however you generally see others as selfish, devious, and sometimes potentially dangerous. You take your time when making decisions and will deliberate on all the possible consequences and alternatives."

My Interests

I enjoy listening to great music. I embrace many musical styles--past and present--but "Angel" by Aerosmith is still the best slow dance song ever! (IMhO.)

I also love hats (I have a hat on my head most of the time)--watching movies, surfing the internet, jeans 'n' sweats ‘n’ hoodies, classic novels (esp. Jane Austen, Brontë sisters), vintage Edwardian fashions, Gothic Lolita, just about anything that's a vintage floral pattern, plaid, toile, or paisley, sketching and clothing design, singing, and watching my daughter continue to grow into an amazing person.

I love 19th and early 20th century architecture. New houses are nice, but I'd prefer an old house with charm and a history to a new one any day. I used to have a house with my former husband in Charleston, but am now back in school and on a tighter budget. I rent an upstairs studio apt. in a 1910 Queen Anne, and my daughter is my "college roommate" :) until I complete my studies and get better established here in the great Pacific Northwest. Our landlady/housemate who owns the house is a classical musician and piano instructor, so the house is always filled with music...I love that.

♥I am an Alice in Wonderland fanatic.♥...

▲ If Alice had another favorite outfit (for when her blue dress is in the wash, LOL) I think this skirt would be it... ♥♠♥♠♥♠♥♠♥♠♥♠♥ ♥♠♥♠♥♠♥♠♥♠♥♠♥ ♥♠♥♠♥♠♥♠♥♠♥♠♥ ♥♠♥

I'd like to meet:

James ...an extraordinary friend.

I keep very busy with a full-time class load, an on-campus job (in campus library) homework, and I’m a single parent with a daughter--so leisure time is at a premium right now...

I would like to meet some interesting people online that I can chat with as I find the time. If we never talk, you'll probably get dropped. Sorry! Quality vs. quantity.

I need a "Holiday", too, Madonna. *LOVE* this film...

This movie makes me bawl. It does. When I watch the Holiday, I become hopeful that there is such a thing as finding true love after losing your way...after you've begun to forget what love even feels...
