About Me

Ok, so, I am a true Florence veteran.. born and raised.I go to the University of North Alabama and I am studying Elementary Education. I have been in school for about 4 years, and will hopefully be graduating this May so who knows where life will take me after that! I live with my sister, Allison, here in Flotown. We have 2 dogs- Jeffery and Cosmo.. although neither of them weigh over 25 lbs, they are our fiesty little attack dogs (Thank you Susan Looney, who is the person responsible for this character trait in both of them). I usually spend my day trying not to lose my mind with school. I get to hang out with my awesome friends about once a year (or so it seems) whenever I get a chance to breathe! I find myself waking up each morning thankful for my friends, my family, and my fabulous life. I appreciate it all, even the stressful moments.. constantly reminding myself how much worse it really could be. Nothing lasts forever. So live it up, drink it down, laugh it off, avoid the bullshit, take chances and never have regrets because at one point, what you did - was what you wanted.Get Your Own! | View Slideshow

My Interests

I enjoy: friends, family, my dogs, canoeing, the lake, laughing, sleeping, Friday's, good movies, funny jokes, soft drinks, rainy days, fried bologne sandwiches, getting a tan, being lazy, all Holidays, Auburn, Sushi, Miller Lite, Sex and the City, nights out with the girls, good guitar players, nature, good dreams, vacations, the beach, decorations, theme parties, good grades, Halloween costumes, strawberry ice cream, having a good cry, laughing so hard with my friends that it makes my cry, Chick-Fil-A milkshakes, and many many more things that I can't think of at the moment.

It's where our souls belong...The only solution is to confront them-- confront yourself--with the greatest fear imaginable. Expose yourself to your deepest fear. After that, fear has no power, and fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. It is then that you are free." --Morrison
