I absolutely LOVE to cook, and I am so excited because I just finnished my schooling at Western Culinary Institute in Portland, Oregon and now have my Le Cordon Bleu Degree in Culinary Arts!! My dream is someday owning my own catering service. I can not wait! Aside from cooking though, I absolutely love to spend time with my friends, and hang out with them. Some of my favorate things to do with them are going to the movies, walking around the mall, shopping, and going to the beach. Although we don't do it much I absolutely love, Love, LOVE camping with them. I also love swimming and maybe every once in a long while skinny dipping... hehehe. I also enjoy talking on the phone with my friends, and the internet. When I am not spending time with my friends, or cooking, I enjoy drawing, reading, watching T.V. and moving, listening to music or DANE COOK who I love, and sometimes just laying in bed having time to myself. I love spending time with my precious baby basset hound Odin Riley McKee, or Odie as I call him. He is my precious baby. When I'm not in Seattle though, my absolute favorite place in the world to be is in Valentine, Nebraska. I know to most people they would think "wow thats boring" but I think it is the most beautiful place in the world and I love just spending time out in the country. When I'm in a realationship (hehehe) I look forward to spending time with my boyfriend. Sometimes going out, sometimes hanging out with our friends, and sometimes just staying in. I also enjoy our "alone time" behind closed doors... Like I've said, I'm a very intamate person ;). This is one of my favorite sayings as well, "Hearts are like puzzles, they may look broken on the outside, but the right person can always put the pieces back together."
I'd like to meet:
I'd say the man of my dreams but by some miricle I've found him. Bisically I would just like to meet new people. I am originally from Seattle, Washington but I recently moved to Beaverton, a suburb of Portland, Oregon. So it might be nice to meet some new people in the Portland area. I am pretty easy going and I would like to meet people who aren't too highstrung, and just like having fun... OH! I would also like to meet George "Dubbya" Bush, because he needs a swift kick to the ass and I'm just the girl to do it!
Music:
Yeah, so baisically Country music. I enjoy all kinds of music, but Country music is mainly what I listen to. Some of my favorate artists are Billy Currington, Tracy Lawrence, Dierks Bently, Andy Griggs, Gretchen Wilson, Julie Roberts, Josh Gracin, Rascal Flatts and much, much more... Although I'm always excited to learn about new artists. Always a good subject for starter conversations.

Heroes:
My best friend Carrole. My mother who has always been there for me, and supported me, even when she knew I might fail, because she has always known that I will always need at least one person behind me. Because no matter how shitty people can treat her, or the people she loves, she always keeps a undying belief in her heart that people are for the most part good; and that those people who aren't good have had something sad or horrible happen to them that has stopped them from being able to see that they are worth "it". Not that "it" is anything in particular, it's just "it". All my close friends, for always being there for me. I know I would not be the person I am today if it were not for you guys. Every single person serving in the Armed Forces to protect our country. They do what all others are afraid to do, and do it selflessly. They protect not only those who support them but all those who don't as well. They are the reason that we can stand tall and speak our minds; and they have my undying respect, apprciation and love. If you have any disrespect for them, then don't talk to me, I don't value you or your opinions, because obviously you are willing to use the privileges given to you by our country, but don't understand why you have them. And myself. Because through it all, I have never given up. I have always believed that I could do anything that I put my mind to. And I have.
