I'm a simple woman from South Dakota whom after finishing college in Laramie, Wyoming picked up her bags and bought a one way ticket to New York City. That was over six years ago and I've come to realize that this is home. I do miss my family out west, but they are supportive of the adventure I chose. I have some absolutely wonderful friends here in The Big Apple that have become my family away from home and they help me get through the full spectrum, from simply choosing a restaurant to providing an air mattress to crash on when one's life falls apart.
I'm a gemini in every sense of the word. I may put a little too much weight into it to cover my butt for my frequent inability to make a decision, my flirty disposition, my moodswings, etc...the list goes on. I have to blame it on something. Until I hop onto the Therapy Wagon like everyone else in NYC, I'll settle for blaming my sign. :) There truly are two sides to me. Despite the fact that I can babble with the best of em, there are plenty of times when quite a bit goes unsaid. I do have days that I delve into hermit mode. I get distracted very easily. I've always got my phone with me. People who know me will tell you that I have a tendency to hop from one topic to another with what seems to be absolutely no connection whatsoever. There are a select few that have almost learned how to follow what I feel to be fully logical transitions.
My first love is singing. I refuse to leave NY until I do what I came here to do. It's a tough business, so, we'll see if I last. I have recently been blessed with not one, but two singing avenues in which I can share my God given talent with people and hopefully touch them. I attribute my acquired New York attitude to my corporate desk job that I suffered through for almost five years. But don't worry...you can take the girl out of Dakota, but you can't take the Dakota out of the girl.
I have very low tolerence for dishonest people. I, unfortunately, find it difficult to trust. But I'm slowly learning grace. "Take care of the forgiveness, leave the justice up to the Big Guy." I'm no where near perfect, but no one says I have to be. I mess up. I make ridiculous choices that sometimes end up affecting other people. Sometimes my filter just completely disappears. I don't claim to always do what's right. "But the world goes round..." I can only hope that those I hold dear will continue to love me despite my glitches.
