About Me

First year in Albany--so far so good! I am currently a part time nanny for two fantastic families and residing in the ghetto Rensselaer for the time being with Katie till we find a rockin apartment back in the downtown Albany Area. Hopefully somewhere with a backyard and a porch so we can chill out drinkin Coronas listening to Jack Johnson...can ya tell I'm ready for Summer already!?! Sometime in the near future I plan on heading to Europe with my sweetie so he can show me his turf. I can't wait! Life is good:)
So Why Not
Take a crazy chance
Why not
Do a crazy dance
If you lose a moment
You might lose a lot
So... why not
I'm just a small town girl from Chase Mills NY who took the leap and moved to Albany recently to do my grad work at St Rose. I love life, love to have fun and most of all I love my friends and family. I tend to be a little naive in that I am too trusting of people...i'm trying to work on that. Some things that bring me joy are...
♥figure skating
♥swimming
♥soaking up every last drop of sunshine
♥listening to music and dancing like I don't care
♥eating sushi
♥summer concerts
♥fairies,
♥reality shows
♥sour patch kids
♥bad comedies
♥cran and vodkas
♥getting crazy with my faves
♥Chanel anything
♥cuddling
♥the beach
♥trashy romance novels
♥chick flicks
♥poutine
♥Labatts Blue
♥taking pictures
♥Apple Jacks for dinner
♥Rachel McAdams
♥beirut (with quarters people! not with ping pong balls!)
♥stolen kisses
♥holding hands and being cheesy
♥sleeping in
♥girls nights out
♥stuffed shells
♥satin sheets
♥traveling to new and familiar destinations
and of course, shopping.
~Random Stuff~
I am not a morning person.
I
I am a lightweight (yes, I am actually admitting it!)
Pink is my favorite color, Red and yellow follow a close second
I'm not afraid to admit when I'm wrong
I believe in compromise
I wear lip gloss 24/7
Taco Bell can make anything better
my hair is naturally curly
Scrapbooking is my obsession lately
I'm an only child
Vanilla is my favorite scent
The Cutting Edge is one of my all time favorite movies *toepick!*
I do anything to have fun. I also will try anything once. Maybe twice. If you're lucky, three times.;-p..Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous.

anyone down to earth and interesting!

You are a Romantic Realist
Okay, so you fall in the middle.
You know that love isn't like a greeting card...
Yet you can always find a greeting card to describe your feelings.

You are the best of both worlds
Girly yet independent, dreamy yet serious.
Almost any guy can find balance with you. Are You a Romantic or Realistic?
