About Me


I am the author of my own life, Unfortunately; I am writing in pen and can't erase my mistakes... I can be a mess, and my room usually is too. I say the wrong things at the wrong time. I sometimes cry for no reason but I love to laugh and more importantly love. I am a romantic but don't believe any part of it is hopeless. I want a fairy tail ending, though the fact that i keep finding the frogs that never turn into princes makes it harder and harder to believe in. I am outspoken, hardworking and determined but a little scared on the inside.
To me its the small things that matter. I'm affectionate and love attention but I need my space. I'm a t-shirt/jeans/flip flops type of girl but would jump at any opportunity to dress up. I'm moody, tempermental and stubborn yet easy going and always up for a good time. I'm strong willed and easily hurt. I love to meet new people and try new things but find comfort in the security of old friends. I'm caring and sarcastic all in the same breath. I love to argue but hate conflict. I want everyone to like me but find it hard to like myself. I find order in chaos. I love to plan and make lists but I am not organized. I love the outdoors: Camping, horseback riding, 4-wheeling, fishing, SURFING, swimming (I'm a fish) Kayaking or just a lazy day floating down the river with my amazing friends and a cooler full of beer at my side. I am intelligent, but not a rocket scientist! I believe that things happen for a reason, though you may never know what that reason is. I don't get mad in traffic because it gives me a chance to rock out in my Jeep. I love to go out for a fun night on the town, but I can have just as much fun sitting on the porch swing and watching the wind blow by. I want to be remembered as the girl who always smiles even when her heart is broken… and the one that could always brighten up your day even if I couldn’t brighten up my own...
I want to run with reckless emotion
Find out if Love is the size of an OCEAN
To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.

My Interests



Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

I LOVE being outdoors! My favorite outdoor activities include water - fishing, swimming, wake boarding and tubing, white water kayaking and even lazy days floating down rivers with coolers full of beer :)
Now that I have moved to Cali I am going to give into the stereotype and try surfing and sail boating. I just really enjoy being outdoors; camping, hiking, 4-wheeling and "goin muddin"! I like to go dancing, play pool, hanging w/ friends and family, watching movies, playing board games, and just enjoying life!
Sports are my addiction; Baseball (Go Red Sox), Football, Golf, Rugby, and all College Sports are included. I'm a diehard Razorback Fan...GO HOGS!
Since I love the water so much I'm big into to conserving its majesty. Yes...I am what my right wing, conservative family calls a "tree hugging hippy". I consider myself a conservationist and believe in preserving nature.

I'd like to meet:



Television:

Animal Planet! Love that show and when I leave the house I usually leave it on for my cat in hopes she will learn something :)
My favorite shows inclued: Commander and Chief, Boston Legal, Will & Grace, and old reruns of the Golden Girls. BUT MY FAVEORITE IS GREY'S ANATOMY
AND I CAN'T FORGET SPORTS!!!

Books:

When it comes to books I'm more of a autobiography or biography of people in history fan than fiction. am a huge fan of current event magazines like News Week or the Economist.
Don't get me wrong people, books are great but when you have your nose burried in a book and are not paying attention to whats going on in the world theres a problem. And PEOPLE...We have a HUGE problem!
His name is George W. Bush-He is the first president in U.S. history to enter office with a criminal record. He SHATTERED the record for biggest annual deficit in history. He cut the taxes of the wealthiest people in America (those making over $200,000 a year). Members of Bush Administration are the richest administration in history. He cut unemployment benefits for more out-of-work Americans than any president in U.S. history. Dissolved more international treaties than any president in U.S. history. Set the all-time record for biggest annual budget spending increases. First president in U.S. history to attack a sovereign nation against the will of the United Nations and the world community. Took the biggest world sympathy for the U.S. after 9/11, and in less than a year, made the U.S. the most resented country in the world. First U.S. president in history to have a majority of people in Europe (over 70%) view his presidency as the biggest threat to world peace and stability. In the 18 months following the 9/11 attacks, he has successfully prevented any public investigation into the biggest security failure in the history of the United States.

Heroes:

My hero is my Mother, Tina. She is the strongest, most resourceful person I have ever known. I am astounded at the challenges and obstacles she has been faced with and overcame in her life. If I even become half the woman she is I would be the luckiest person on the planet. I am thankful every day that she is my Mom.

Do things really happen for a reason?

They do right?  I'm to the point where I'm loosing faith in that statement.  If the things in my life are happening for a reason, hopefully a good one, I sure hope that good reason finds a w...
