About Me

About me? Does anyone really read these? To me, a person can write anything down, but how much are you actually going to find out about a person from a few typed words? I mean, I could write that I am a kind, sweet girl looking for fun....or that I am an intelligent and down-to-earth person who is just seeing what's out there...but how many profiles have you read that say the exact same thing? If you really want to get to know me, then you will have to talk to me. That's the only way a person gets to know another person. Don't you think? Wow, I guess I should add honesty, right?
I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !
