About Me

DO NOT SEND ME MESSAGES OR FRIEND REQUESTS UNLESS I KNOW YOU PERSONALLY. YOU WILL BE DENIED. KAPISH?! GOOD.
Let's continue...
1. I married the love of my life, Jeremy Maxwell, on December 30, 2006!!
2. I love my nieces and nephews more than anything. I'd die for Taylor, Morgan, Kaytlin, Isaac, and Ethan.
3. I LOVE DISNEYLAND!!
4. I scrapbook quite a bit in my free time.
5. Peanut butter, coconut, and fish are disgusting.
6. I love goose down comforters & the noises they make.
7. Cactus and fish make great pets, forget the fur!!
8. I love watching TV on DVD.
9. I like looking at other photographer's work.
10. I love shoes--the higher the heel, the better!
11. I love shopping for new clothes.
12. I like the dark if I'm sleeping, but if I'm somewhere I don't really know, it scares the crap outta me.
13. I don't like scary noises.
14. My laptop is amazing.
15. I like reading for fun, but the minute I'm obligated, it gets on my nerves.
16. I multi-task like no other.
17. I think the internet is one of the greatest inventions ever, along with tampons, lightbulbs, and the electric can opener.
18. Wireless internet is even more ingenious!!
19. If you piss me off, I'll tell you. Yeah, that may make me mean, but I don't like dishonest people, so why would I want to be one myself??
20. Don't mess with me or my friends & loved ones, because I'm not someone to double cross.
21. I love to laugh.
22. I don't like fake people. I see RIGHT through the crap.
23. I believe that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
24. I'm an artsy-fartsy kid--photographer, dancer, singing, scrapbooker, etc.
25. I don't approve of the war, and I can't say I fully support the military. I support my guys because they've made that choice already, but I really can't say I like it.
26. I'm living proof that a Mormon can be a liberal democrat with a passion for gay rights, including gay marriage; a woman's right to choose; a hatred for Bush, etc.
27. BTW, don't talk to me about the above mentioned topics if you're just going to bash them. It'll get nasty quick. My best friend of 7 years & I don't even talk politics.
28. I'm a jeans & t-shirt girl that likes to get dressed up.
29. Music and love are the band-aids for the soul.
30. I have many acquaintances, several good friends, a small handful of great friends, and 2 best friends.
31. I'm loud and obnoxious.
32. I LOVE chocolate.
33. I still love Hanson after almost 10 years. I won't deny it because they're still amazing and their music has helped me grow into the person I am today.
34. I am woman, hear me roar. I don't play housewife, that doesn't work for me.
35. After 19 years, I've finally come to the realization that I am me and I am happy to be the person that I am! My life is pretty good, I'm lucky to be alive, and I'm only looking up.
