happiness is only real when shared...

About Me

I'm an actress. I love theater and anything that has to do with acting. A party isn't really a party, unless there is some dancing. I think everyone should sing out loud, I do, it makes me happy. I am a person who likes to live a life that is full of expression, art, music,and good company. I believe that the friends that I will make in my lifetime, good or bad, have been put in my path to teach me something about myself or the world around me. I will always love my roller skates, tap shoes, and art supplies. I know that the soundtrack of a movie, can either make or break that movie. I can't imagine my life without my own soundtrack. I will never be able to catch up on all the books I have to and need to read. I'm a professional doodler and daydreamer. Imperfections and uniqueness intrigue me. I'm a magnet for people who live outside of the box, and also..odd people. Maybe it's because I am an open book, and i don't mind sharing myself with people...just know that I tear out different chapters, depending on who's reading my book. I'm a really curious person...sometimes that gets me in trouble :-) I believe whole heartedly, that people should be more open-minded and open-hearted, and less judgmental. I have a great capacity for empathy and sympathy, but not a lot of patience for people who are prejudice and choose not to fight against their ignorance....there is definitely definitely definitely no logic, to human behavior...
