Myspace Layouts by Pimp-My-Profile.com

I love hiking and camping, and laying out in the sun, but I'm happiest by the sea. I'm best described as being an optimistic pessimist, meaning that I always hope for the best but fully expect the worst so I have all my bases covered! Lately my favorite thing to do has been to curl up in front of the fire and read a book while snuggling with my kitties. I go rollerblading a lot too (in the summer!). I got my first tattoo a while ago now (June 14!). It is an anime kitty from the show Inuyasha. Her name is Kilala, and she can transform into a sabre tooth tiger. What does it mean? It means that although I may look cute, I'm really a tiger on the inside. People say I'm a good listener and a good friend, I just try and think of how I would like someone to be towards me (Golden Rule people!). I have my BA in psychology, however this never really got off the ground after I graduated from University, so I went back to school and now I'm a pharmacy technician/pharmacy manager. This is great because I get to handle toxic drugs and be around sick people all day! But I get to help people make their lives better and fetch my boss lunch, which is what it's really all about and makes me feel good. Myspace Contact TablesYour results:

My Interests


MySpace CodesI read a lot, everything from Chronicles of Narnia to "Encyclopedia of Serial Killers" and textbooks like "Fundamentals of Human Neurophysiology". I am also interested in astronomy and I work out a lot, I think it's important to try and have a healthy mind and body. I love hanging out with my friends and my sisters and I love to go out dancing. I also love to meet fun and interesting new people... like you! :D

I'd like to meet:


Create Your Own!I'd love to meet Nate "Rock" Quarry. Not only is he a respectful person, he's also a great fighter! He's my hero. Yeah Nate!! Big cheer goes up for Team Quest as well. They have the best fighters. I'd also love to meet Darren the "Swick Fu Lizard". He's one of the finest human beings I've had the pleasure to get acquainted with. :D

Music:


Myspace Codes: MyNiceSpace.com

Profile Song: HOMER TECHNO: Because Homer is funn-ee!!! And I love this song, it comes from my heart!! I love Madonna, she is the best artist ever. I really like all kinds of music from classical to heavy shit if I'm in the proper mood. Some of my favorite bands are Cranberries, NIN and Evanescence (Amy Lee has the most beautiful voice, it gives me goose bumps! and I get to see them in concert January 16... do I even have to tell you how excited I am???). I also love Red Hot Chili Peppers, Prodigy and old Stone Temple Pilots. Chris Issac is great to chill out to. Wierd Al is funny.

Movies:


Myspace Codes: MyNiceSpace.com

My favorite movie is "The Joy Luck Club". Of course there are the original Star Wars movies and the Lord of the Rings movies. Fantasy movies and Science Fiction are some of my favorites too. X-Men 3 was totally awesome by the way! My favorite funny movie has to be Scary Movie 2. That movie makes me laugh pretty much non-stop from beginning to end (it's so sick!). Aliens movies for scariness! Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas! Favorite anime movie is Ninja Scroll (so violent!). Indiana Jones. V for Vendetta was really interesting because I like the idea that there are no coincidences.

Television:

The Simpsons is pure genius and is a totally hilarious show, so is Married with Children. I'm also a huge Japanese Anime buff and I love Sailor Moon and Inuyasha. More into animes that revolve around swords and magic, not so much into guns n' robots. I used to really be into Ren and Stimpy. I like Star Trek (yes, I am a TOTAL dork, but resistance is futile!). Frasier and Seinfeld are my fav sitcoms. UFC rocks as well. Chances are that if I am at home and it is on TV, I am watching it. I got all my friends into it too! Even the ones who are against violence.

Books:

MySpace Layouts

My favorite books are the Lord of the Rings Trilogy (favorite one being The Two Towers) and The Five People you Meet in Heaven. Anything by Stephen King, Dean Koontz or Jack London. Also the books Roots and The Thorn Birds, both of which are heartbreaking. I also like historical fiction, especially books about feudal Japan (why I think I like Inuyasha so much) such as Taiko and Shogun. And Clan of the Cave Bear, The Kama Sutra, The Art of War and the People of the Wolf series. Ahhh! There's too many!
