I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Some people say I smile too much, or laugh at everything, but that's all a matter of opinion. My best worst habit would have to be putting my foot in my mouth, yes definitely. It's not the easiest thing to do, but I make it look like second nature. I like to say it comes with Britishness, yes, I am British. No I don't have an English accent, no I can't fake an English accent. I try to keep God number one in my life, some people think that's a waste of time, but I've learned that life just works better with Him in the front, that's the least I can do... I'm really a shy person, but have a nasty habit of appearing outgoing. However I love to be around people I care about, friends, and yes even my family that likes to drive me up the wall.
