About Me

I'm nearly 33 years old, living in Germany from the beautiful state of Colorado. My husband is an Active Duty Army Officer and we move a lot. We call no place home an we consider ourselves citizens of the world. We are thinking about starting a family soon and we're really excited about that!
I hope to pursue my master's degree in Journalism. I'm starting to study for my GRE which I am going to take this year. I have already started working in the field as a volunteer and the experience that I am getting is going to give me a great foundation and more education than in school alone.
I aspire to be a lot of things and sometimes I have my head in the clouds, but one thing is for sure...once I have set my mind to something, I rarely give up...even if I don't like the road I'm traveling upon or if things seem too hard or painful. I complain a lot, but it's mainly just to vent. I take things way too seriously sometimes. I'm pretty easy-going though and I tend to fit in anywhere. I care about everything, almost to a fault. I worry about everything all the time (it's a wonder I don't have ulcers or something!) Shy is not a word that people use to describe me... :) A favorite place for me to meet new people is online...that's how my hubby and I met.
My hobbies include spending time with my husband and my animals, traveling, photography and writing. Even though I like to be out and about, I consider myself a homebody and the couch is my favorite place in the house. I love to talk on the phone and watch my favorite TV shows.
