The only things you live to regret are the risks you didn't take.

About Me

I am a very strong-willed person. I know who I am, what I want, and what I have to do to get it. I am definitely used to having things my way, but not because they're given or they fall into my lap, but because I have the strength and ability to get what I desire and hold onto it. I don't let people walk on me or make my decisions for me, and I will never allow someone to control me. Been there, done that, never again. I take charge in my life and accomplish the goals that I set for myself.

I am very honest and straightforward. I try to be tactful, but honesty takes precedence. I have no problem telling people about my past, I have no regrets. That certainly doesn't mean that I haven't made mistakes, but I view them as opportunities for growth and learning, and there is very little I'd take back.My family and friends top my priority list. I would do anything for them. The most important thing in this life are the people in it and how you interact with them. I try always to treat others with kindness and respect, and can only hope that it is returned. But even when it's not, I don't treat anyone differently. I have a reputation for being polite and friendly. I'm the girl who makes sure that no one ever feels left out at a party, I talk to everyone to make sure they're having a good time, I ask how everyone is doing.I was born in Portland, Oregon and lived there with my mom until I was five. Then we moved to Utah and she remarried. After ten years of marriage, they also divorced, and I have my two younger sisters from that marriage . My girls are the most important thing in my world. I try to live my life in such a way that they can look up to and emulate. Sometimes I succeed, sometimes I don't.I am very forgiving and always understanding and compassionate. I look at the world through the eyes of others, and never pass judgment. I give my friends advice based on sincerity and what I feel is truly best for them, not what would be best for me in their situation. I hate it when people do that. If you just want someone to talk to, I listen with open ears and an open mind. I can almost always tell whether you need a listener, comfort, advice, or a combination of the three.I consider myself pretty physically active and athletic. I never played sports competitively, but always kept up with the boys in recess ;) I like basketball, volleyball, and ultimate Frisbee. I competed on a Ballroom Dance team for a few years in high school. I still enjoy dancing, but not competitively. I still dance sometimes, go country dancing, and clubbing. But nothing is better than dancing around your own house, of course. Especially the kitchen.I'm definitely an outdoorsy girl, I love hiking and camping, spending time in nature away from civilization and the stresses that come with it. You can feel at peace in nature, relaxed, free. I like to think when I'm away from the world. You think so clearly walking through the trees, beside a river or stream, or on top of a ridge, overlooking a vast and endless expanse of wild earth.I love things that are meditative and calming, like reading, sitting around a fireplace, organizing, watching rain or snow fall. And then yoga, of course. I love feeling the muscles in my body slowly pull and stretch and grow warm and then slowly relax. The physical and emotional and mental and spiritual benefits of yoga are endless.Passion is a key word in my life. I'm passionate about my likes and interests, passionate about my love for my friends and family, passionate in my relationships, passionate about my career, passionate about my future. Passion is what makes your heart race, your mind spin, gives you butterflies, makes you laugh and smile, brings you happiness and peace. Life is nothing without passion.Balance and peace are the things that I seek in my life. I consider myself a fairly well-balanced person in all aspects, and make decisions based on what I think will bring me peace and happiness. All things considered, I think I've done a good job so far. Most days are peaceful, for the most part, and almost always end happily. I am content with myself, my life, and the possibilities ahead of me.

The Politics Test :

Centrist
(You scored 50% Personal Liberty and 41% Economic Liberty!)


A centrist believes in moderate government intervention in both personal and economic matters. They tend to be somewhat ambiguous, as they may have the oppurtunity to pick the side of any group surrounding them on any given issue. They generally believe in a moderate social safety net and what they consider to be a balanced stance on personal liberty. Centrists tend to emphasize compromise and cooperation between partisan groups.

My Interests

Anything outdoors, hiking, camping, rock climbing, I love getting away from the world. I love yoga and working out, though I don't make as much time for either as i ought to. I like going to parties with friends, I love going clubbing with my girls, and shopping is a given.The first time I vote will be in the 2008 Presidential elections, I am so stoked! God Bless the US--the way it's SUPPOSED to be! Good luck Ron Paul!

I'd like to meet:

Some people that just want to chill and relax and enjoy life! Too much drama in the past, I'm ready for an emotional vacation... I'd really like to make some more friends who'd like to explore with me. I need more hiking and rock climbing buddies. :)

Television:

History Channel, Discovery Channel, National Geographic. All those nerdy channels. And the Disney Channel, of course. Oh, and Comedy Central. I love the Simpsons, will always be a FRIENDS fanatic, like the O.C. and Gilmore Girls, and occasionally sit down for things like CSI. And the cooking shows every now and again. But they just make me hungry.

Books:

Anything with adventure and mystery. A bit of romance is a must. Lynn Kurland and Nora Roberts my favorite romance authors. I love Dan Brown. I also really liked the Harry Potter books. I've kind of gotten into a non-fiction funk though. Right now I'm reading Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, and the Power of Positive Thinking, and Think and Grow Rich. The Power of Now was life-changing, and I've got a lengthy to-read list, including The Life of Pi. I read National Geographic, Coastal Living, Sherman's Travel, and Cosmopolitan, Bazaar, and Vogue.

Heroes:

My mother. I may not always agree with her, in fact, usually not. But she is an amazingly strong woman with a warm, loving heart that she shields all too much. She is a successful woman, who has never let anything get in her way or bring her down. I'm more like you than I'd like to be... I hope. :) I love you Mom!!
