Some people, it's a pity, they go all their lives and never know how to love or to let love go

About Me


Cancer affects everyone.

I currently live in Michigan, but my heart is in the northwest.
I'm technically an English major, but I will be going to school for music at some point, as well.
I love to travel. I will be done packing and in the car faster than you can say "road trip."
I am a Gemini, multiple personalities and all.
I believe in angels - my best friends.
I love the ocean. And the mountains. And the forests. And the birds. And the deer. And -- well, you get the point.
Music is my life.
One of my favorite things to do is just drive around and sing at the top of my lungs.
99% of my friends thought I was a bitch when they first met me, so you probably would, too. The people who take the time to find out the truth are the ones I call my friends.
I am a sports fan, and yes, I know what I'm talking about.
I have a motorcycle license (but not a motorcycle... yet) and I wish my dad was around to go riding with me.
I got my tattoo in his memory and there is not a day that goes by that I don't think about him.
My family is huge and crazy and wonderful, and I cherish every moment that I have with them.
I wish my life could be a movie, complete with soundtrack and all.
I cuss like a sailor, and I am clumsy, indecisive, and stubborn - but my friends and family love me and that's all that matters.
I believe in fate.

It's over, finally.  I couldn't be there, as my vacation had just begun.  But I'm here now, and I know that's all that matters.  She wouldn't have known I was there, anyway, but she do...

Four days and counting

I should be a real estate agent, because my love for houses is unreal.  If I were a billionaire, I would own so many houses I wouldn't know what to do with them all.  In fact, most of them ...

Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up

I got a call from the local Coast Guard recruiter a few weeks ago.  He didn't just call me out of nowhere - I actually requested information, so not only did they send me two separate packets a ...

We'll get there fast and then we'll take it slow

I will make this short and sweet, because I only have a few minutes to kill between packing and showering.  Yes, that's right, I said packing.  Packing for what? you might be wondering. ...

The wheel is spinning, but the hamster's dead

Why I don't watch scary movies

It's not just because I'm a wuss, which I am when it comes to blood and gore and things that go squish in the night (ugh that sound makes me cringe).  But also because at some point in the near f...

Ummmm

I haven't been able to log onto MySpace at will for almost three months.  It got to the point where I didn't even miss it.  I should have kept it that way.Oh well.  Here I am.There's so...
