About Me

Born in New Jersey but raised the majority of my life in North Carolina!! Love it there but just not enough excitement for me. I started out college in NC at UNC Wilmington, but transferred up north for a kind of dumb reason (men can really suck!!! Still love you though Jeff), but no regrets, you learn by living and making mistakes, and those mistakes have made me the person I am today! So I finished my undergrad at the University of Southern Maine and got the hell out of there. My bestfriend from high school, who I had lived apart from for 4 years made the journey at the same time and we got a place together in West Palm Beach. We lived together for 2 years since the Summer of "04 but she recently had to go back to NC. I'm still here however and I love it!! I recently stopped going to graduate school for my Masters in Mental Health Couseling after 3 years of racking up student loans to finally realize its not what I want. Other then that I stopped bartending in December of '05 after 4 years and joined the buisness world at Enterprise. I spend most of my time outside work and school with my close friends! I love to go out a lot, probably drink a little too much, but my friends and I always have a blast! I'm a hugh Miami Dolphins, Yankees, and Tarheels fan! I also love to play poker! And not that bad if I may say so myself. Well I think this is long enough, thats the gist of me, you don't need my whole life story.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Just real people! As for an idol I'd like to meet, I met him, Dean Smith!! I'm a diehard Tarheels fan and any true Carolina fan would kill to meet him! The only other people I truely can not wait to meet are my children!

Books:

I was a college student for 8 years, I read psychology, it rocked my socks! Now I work 60 hours a week! For real I wish I had more time to read for pleasure, I use to all the time. The last book I read was The DaVinci Code and that was a while ago!

Heroes:

Military Personnel, Police Officers, and Fire Fighters! My mom and papa, and my sisters, 2 of them for blessing me with the most wonderful 6 neices anyone could ask for (while my own children are on delay! LOL!) and my youngest sister for just being the coolest little sis who can tough it thru anything!
