I am here for Friends

About Me

Comfortable in my own skin, very happy with who I am and what I believe, and absolutely ready to rock whatever is coming down the line. I'm assuming that if you are reading this that you probably already know a good bit about me, but I'll quickly summarize: Graduated from a smalltown 2A school in TX, then spent 4 years at UNT where I earned my Bachelor's degree in Psychology, as well as a commission into the USAF as a communications officer. I was then sent to Japan for a couple of years and had a blast, met some really great people, and had a ton of great experiences. Got to travel around a little bit (Hong Kong, Macau, Japan, Hawaii, all over the continental US) before getting stationed in Georgia. I volunteered for a tour over in Iraq and as it turns out, it was probably the best experience of my life, as ironic as it seems. I'm back in Texas now and looking forward to staying in the area for a good long while.

My Interests

Hanging out with my family, shopping, basketball, reading magazines (Psychology Today, Men's/Women's Health, People, and all the celebrity gossip of course) and learning about anything interesting, from makeup tips to politics or sports talk or how things work.
You Are a Fierce Femme
You have a wild side, and you aren't afraid to bring it out when the time is right.
But you also know when to hang back and keep your "crazy chick" persona in check.
In fact, some of your friends may be surprised to find out how far you can take it...
You may look mild mannered, but it's all an act! How Daring Are You?
You Belong in Rome
You're a big city girl with a small town heart
Which is why you're attracted to the romance of Rome
Strolling down picture perfect streets, cappuccino in hand
And gorgeous Italian men - could life get any better? What City Do You Belong In?

I'd like to meet:

Who I'd like to meet:Angelina Jolie, Marion Barber, T.O., and Ozzy and James from Survivor. What a couple of badasses! Not bad on the eyes either.

Music:

Almost anything, from Dave Matthews to Colbie Caillat, Celine Dion to Luda, Baby Bash to Three Six Mafia, with a pinch of Garth or Taylor Swift. I've got my country days and my clubbing days, my hang around the house and chill to some Ben Harper days, and my blow-the-speakers out with some Stone Sour days. It's all good.
Your Love Style is Eros
For you, love is all about the passion!
And chances are, you're currently in love.
You have a strong physical response to love...
And you are great at committing
(As long as the person makes your toes curl!) What's Your Love Style?

Beyond Borders, The Notebook, Serendipity, The Wedding Planner, Their Eyes Were Watching God, Charlie Wilson's War, The Departed, Cruel Intentions, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Because I Said So, Super Troopers, Zoolander, Dumb & Dumber, The Wedding Crashers, and of course the cult classic Team America: World Police.

Television:

Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Heroes, The Bachelor, Family Guy, and Survivor... and whatever basketball game is on.

Books:

Target Underwear and a Vera Wang Gown, Their Eyes Were Watching God, Nice Girls Don't Get Rich, You Are Your Choices, and Angelina Jolie: Notes from My Travels

Heroes:

My parents, firefighters, those who try to break stereotypes and build communities, and anyone who has persevered through extremely trying times and continued to have faith in people.
