About Me


I will always love you. That's the truth.
Without you- day is nothing but a waste of light.
Without you- I am lost I vanish in the night.
Without you- life is but a senseless waste of time.
Without you- everything I dream turns black and white.

I'm a graduate from the University of Central Florida, and work at a property appraiser's firm. I met the love of my life a year and some months agp- regardless of anything, I know I want to marry this man. I am interested in TONS of things- my music, movies, books, and clothes are a mixture of pretty much everything. Unfortunately, because of that, people think I'm "fake" because I like mostly everything and can tolerate everything else. All my friends are different, and I love that about them.
My biggest strength is that I am caring and nurturing. I hate to see people in pain, and it tears me up when I cause pain. I love to help my friends, but it seems to always put me in a bad position. My biggest weakness is that I like to appease everyone, and in doing so, have told little white lies to "protect" them. This has caused rifts with a few people I love very deeply. It's something I'm working on- and I AM going to fix it. In retrospect, I'm sorry for anything I've ever said that wasn't 100% true- I can't go back and fix it, but I hope some people can be forgiving. I haven't drank since April 2006 (with the exception of one glass of wine on my birthday and another with Anna), and I don't lie anymore- those are two bad habits I'm loving life without.
If you want to get to know me, I am a colorful person with a deep soul. I'll like most anyone at first, and will only begin to dislike them if they screw me or someone close to me over. And I'll let you know I don't like you. From here on out, though, it's gonna be straight up- you're going to hear things you may not like. Listen to me and I'll listen to you. Respect me and I'll respect you.
"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."- Voltaire (Editor's note: This does not mean talk about someone behind their back to me. Please, if you don't like someone, ignore them or tell them, not me!)This scene makes me cry every time.

My Interests

my friends, learning new things, music, singing, writing, reading, watching Jeopardy and getting two-thirds of the answers right, Ben's new devilock, clothes, zen, yoga, lots of things. I am a well-rounded, well-adjusted individual... at least that's what my therapist tells me.
Myspace Profiles
A brave babe with a lust for adventure and travel, you can't sit still and watch the world go by without jumping in to sample the goods! Even if you're a shy Sag, exotic places and people fascinate you - and weird food from far-flung places makes you slobber. Trying new stuff and sampling the best life has to offer are the traits that make you terrific. Routine rubs you up the wrong way, so best you spice up your life with loads of change in decor, interesting friends and hobbies. You're best at inspiring people to overcome their fears, winning arguments and smiling when you're surrounded by gloomy faces.

I'd like to meet:

I already met my soulmate... who else is there? I'm very picky when it comes to friends; girls are bitches and guys have one thing on their mind.

Music:


Music I love: Bush, Stabbing Westward (and the Dreaming! Gotta love Christopher Hall- that voice!), NIN, MUSE, Goldfrapp, Mesh, Mindless Self Indulgence, Ladytron, anything Synthpop 'cause it's really good to dance to, Orgy (AMIR=Best looking "older" guy ever), The Cure (OMG LOVE), Fischerspooner, Pearl Jam, DMB, David Gray, Jason Mraz, Tristan Prettyman, Elliot Smith, anything from the Starbucks channel on XM, Natasha Bedingfield, Daniel Bedingfield, Death Cab for Cutie, a TINY bit of country- Patsy Cline, Johnny Cash, Keith Urban, Reba McIntyre, Bryan White, yeeeeaaahh the list could keep going....................................... I'm still experimenting with different bands... I actually like Skinny Puppy a lot(NOT just because someone else does, although he did influence me into listening to half this music in the first place) as well as ohGr and cEvin Key, KMFDM is amazing, Delerium and Conjure One, Seabound, Combichrist, Suicide Commando, Velvet Acid Christ, Android Lust, VNV Nation, Funker Vogt, Front 242, Front Line Assembly, Covenant, Wolfsheim, some Ministry, getting into some older stuff like Depeche Mode and Siouxie and the Banshees, and lots of other industrial/eclectic music. Bands I Listened to and I'm Not So Keen About: Nirvana (I know, I know, they are a legend), metal bands (I do, however, support my friends in local metal bands, because at least they have the balls to get up there on stage and rock it!) I love Ben's music! Visit The Ludovico Technique's Myspace- NOW!!!

Movies:

My favorite actors are Christian Bale, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Ewan McGregor, and John Cusack, favorite actresses are Franka Potente, Rachel Weiss, and Scarlett Johanssen. Newsies, Harry Potter, Sliding Doors, Phantom of the Opera, Run Lola Run, Gone with the Wind, lots of girly movies, Velvet Goldmine, The Lost Boys, Willow, Legend, Labyrinth, Say Anything/tons of cheesy eighties flicks/John Cusack movies, although I do like guy movies too. I watch whatever baby wants to watch, and it's usually a pretty eclectic mix. Perfume is a really good movie; The Prestige, however, is not.

Television:

Sex and the City (I once watched it all weekend- literally- four seasons in two days), Forensic Files, Law and Order: SVU, CSI, Gilmore Girls, Dog the Bounty Hunter (oh, I'm a dork), Intervention (sometimes it gets a bit too heavy), and all my cartoons! Invader Zim (recent fan), American Dad, and -of course- Family Guy. Ghost Hunters on SciFi is my new favorite show... I'm kind of a skeptic, but it's a cool show because they really don't say a place is haunted too often. They usually have some logical explanation for what is happening. One time they even fixed the plumbing! (Plus, Grant is hella hot)

Books:

I like such a wide variety of books it would be impossible to name them all... I really like Jodi Picoult cause she touches on some intense subjects. I've read The Pact (teen suicide), My Sister's Keeper (organ donation), Keeping Faith (stigmata) and The Tenth Circle (rape and cutting). She has like ten more, and I want to read them all!!!! I'll also go back and read books from my childhood, like Anne of Green Gables. I also have a slight problem with reading series... I have to read them all in order before I can really focus on another book!!! The Shopaholic series by Sophie Kinsella is my favorite...Nice light reading. I'm trying to expand my mind and read books like Ayn Rand and Kurt Vonnegut, too. I love and collect antique books as well. I have an 1898 copy of Romeo and Juliet and a 1876 copy of Tour of the World in 80 Days by Jules Verne.

Heroes:

People who don't take crap... Pretty much my mom and dad, Ben, Scarlett O'Hara.
R.I.P. James Souto 12/29/1984-3/16/06 I love you Jimmi-J-James *I can't believe it's been over a year...*
