MySpace Layouts MySpace Codes MySpace Backgrounds I love marathons of my favorite sitcoms, I could watch them a thousand times over**Grape Kool-Aid was the best drink ever invented**I love my son more than life itself**I love my friends very dearly, and I would do anything for them**100 Calorie Packs were God's gift to women with big butts**I love country songs that feel like they are talking about my life...even though they usually make me cry**I love wine, even though I really don't have a clue about it**And I like to drink it while having heart to hearts with my best friends**A nice pair of jeans that fit perfectly are hard to find, and I am willing to pay insane amounts of money for them**I know I can be a priss like that sometimes**I like to make a shot in pool and pretend I'm a hard ass**Cranberry and vodka is my drink of choice.. of course, I'll always be a beer girl deep down inside**Even though I grew up near the city, driving downtown scares the shit out of me**I'm a horrible driver, by the way**The devil invented Tequila**But somehow, margaritas with my girls is one of my favorite past times**I forgive too easily, that's my best and worst quality**I really try hard not to gossip, but when you're stupid, you're still going to be stupid whether I told someone or not**I'm terrified of bugs, and I have nightmares about them once a week.. at least**I'm lazy, and I will be the first person to admit that... but I'm working on it.**I fall asleep in class..daily.**Sometimes I wonder if I'm narcoleptic for that very reason**I love baseball, and my team is the WHITE SOX!!**My child is spoiled rotten, and it's not my fault.**I love being spontaneous... random trips and fun nights area always the best**I love reading, and I don't do it often enough.**I'm wondering if living in Edwardsburg is making me dumber on a daily basis.**If I don't get out of this town, I'm going to have a meltdown.**I love going to the beach, but I hate wearing a bathing suit.**One day, I'm going to own my own private beach so I won't have to.**That will come when I win the lottery... which is pretty much my goal in life.**

My Interests

First and foremost, spending time with Nate is my number one favorite thing to do. Watching him grow has been amazing. I love music. I play guitar and sing. I've been signed to a local independant record label, and I will be working on my CD here very soon. I have a music myspace, check it out sometime...

I'd like to meet:

I've met my dreamweaver, Jason Mraz. Who else IS there? :) Well, I guess if I met Dane Cook, I would have a perma-smile for life.

Music:

Joss Stone, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jason Mraz, Jack Johnson, Dave Barnes, The Beatles, Gavin DeGraw, Rascal Flatts. I listen to a little bit of everything and anything, really. I like making mixed CD's that have everything from rap to country to folk music.. because that is pretty much how random my taste in music is. I am even learning to appreciate scream-o bands. It's a tough job, but someone has got to do it.

Movies:

I love comedies. There isn't anything better. Adam Sandler, Will Ferell, Kevin James, Vince Vaughn, Dane Cook, Steve Carell-- they are all geniuses and no movie they are in could ever possibly be bad! If I'm not watching a comedy, I'm watching a horror film. I hate predicatability, and the more off the wall, the better. Some of my favorite movies are, 50 First Dates, 40 Year Old Virgin, Anchorman, Grandma's Boy... That's just a few. And I LOVE Finding Nemo.. that movie was just so flippin' cute.

Television:

I love the oldies, Fresh Prince of Bel-Aire, Roseanne, Cheers.. you know, Nick At Night stuff. I LOVE Nick at Night. That 70's Show, Family Guy, Scrubs, and the show Intervention kicks ass. I'm a big fan of reality stuff. I know, I'm a geek.

Books:

I love literature, I love writing. The only problem is, I think I have ADD and I never finish what I start. I'm a big fan of Nicholas Sparks novels, although I've read a lot of amazing literature throughout all my American Lit courses, I can never remember the authors. I loved Emerson's "Nature", and Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights". I have read a lot of poetry that I have enjoyed, many of which were early American poets. Dorothy Paker, Anne Bradstreet, Robert Frost. Although, I have to admit, I'm a Harry Potter fan. I can't help it. Rowling sucked me right in with her fantastical adventures. :)

Heroes:

I look up to many people. All in different ways. When I know that I am not doing something right, I think of who does it the ABSOLUTE best, and I try and mock thier actions. I look up to my Mom for her ability to keep her surroundings orderly, my Dad for his work ethic, My brother for his drive, Jenni for her serving abilities (she was super! Miss you, doll), Robin for her strength and unwavering faith, Niki for her determination. I don't think there is one specific person that has it all, I think that my hero's surround me on a daily basis and I aspire to be a little like each of them.

A Little Less Of Lauren Goes A Long Way...

It was the last week in April when I realized that my life needed to change. I was sitting in a bar on a cruise ship smoking a cigarette wondering why in the world no one was talking to me. "I'm...

Poetry of an aching heart...

If you knew me well, you would know this wasn't right. The clouds are moving in on something that I cannot fight. And even though you lay and you cry your salty tears, I cannot take away the pain ev...

Ugh, with springtime comes the eight leggers...

I really do think that if I see one more creepy crawly in my house, I'm going to scream. I hate anything with more than two legs and smaller than my fingers. I don't know why it was God's ...
