About Me


Aphrodite/Eros
Which Of The Greek Gods Are You ?
So a friend once said, "Cleavage isn't slutty, it’s just like the sun. You glance at it, but you don’t stare!!!!" So boys, sorry about the g-rated pics, but I'd rather not blind you all. :) That’s just a little JOKE! It seems at times I can be full of slightly witty sayings, yet I probably only delude myself into thinking that I'm actually funny. Anyhow, I'm a small town lady from the rugged Pacific Northwest. I suppose that makes me, from birth, a granola eating, coffee drinking, computer nerd. Well, sad to say, I AM! :) So I'm about 5'4", somewhere between 135-140 lbs (who actually worries about that?! I don't!), I have naturally curlyish brown hair, which is around my shoulders, but when I was younger I was said to have looked just as cute as Shirley Temple. If you know what I'm talking about, great, if not just keep thinking it’s a non-alcoholic beverage made with yummy maraschino cherries. I have blue eyes, and have been told that they’re the prettiest around. I’d like to say that my cheery attitude, and love for people of all kinds are my best attributes, but I’d be denying the fact that I have luscious lashes, which require no mascara! Have I mentioned that I’m not vain, and try to rid myself of superficial qualities? Maybe I should also say that, although my existence is caught up in capitalistic American consumerism, I strive to little by little break away from a material existence, and find complete and utter happiness within my relationship with Jesus Christ, myself, and the people that love me. If you wanna chat with me, I’m open to all people. I find pleasure in new friends! (By the way, I lied about my weight, it's changed since I originally wrote this...but it's not my fault...My new found friend SWISS CHOCOLATE changed everything and made me "fudge" it a little. haha "fudge it!")

My Interests



spontaneous adventures, rain, water, sunshine on my face, candles, poems, literature: classics to sci-fi, smiles, people with beautiful souls, lights in the city, the man in the moon, mount rainier, hiking, cows, large gardens, rolling hills, AIM, art galleries, love, rocks, furniture, Ross: dress for less, Nordstrom’s, university life, LIFE, computers, family, pearls, eye lashes, shoes, evergreen trees, granola, snowboarding, snow, scarves, sarongs, flip-flops, quilting, German Shepards, and the list continues... I also like frozen bananas (they're like popsicles!), plants, fresh laundry-warm and clean, light and sweet kisses, BIG BEAR HUGS, puppies, antiques, boys that smell damn good, random calls in the middle of the night, catching eyes with boys that make me go "hmmm!", shampoo and conditioner that makes my hair smell really good!, meditating, Victoria Secret, unexpected acts of kindness, the view of Mount Rainier from the boat docks on Alder Lake, birds (I know a lot about them!), the ocean as it tickles my toes, MEMORIES.......

I'd like to meet:


Your Fortune Is
It's ok to let a fool kiss you, but don't let a kiss fool you. The Wacky Fortune Cookie GeneratorGOD! :) But I'm pretty sure that will happen relatively soon enough. It’s not like I'm going to get out of this life alive! :) So in a more physical, rather than metaphysical sense, I’m looking to meet people who enjoy talking, are genuine, trustworthy, and honest. I believe that inside of everyone is a little piece of beauty and happiness. I’d love to meet you all for that reason!! :) I’d rather not add people as friends without just saying “Hi,” first. Message me for my AIM screen name!!!

Music:

mostly popular music that is easy to sing to (not that i have a good voice!), a lot of country, but mostly I listen to EVERYTHING!, today was Red Hot Chili Peppers, I also enjoy Norah Jones, Tim McGraw, Eminem, The Beatles, and everything else! :) Jack Johnson, Daniel Powter (I just found him!), Turner Core (that one's for you Markos), 3rd Day and TONS of other Christian artists!!! I enjoy all kinds of music, but I don't actually have much music because I think it's too expensive to buy! :( (ok...so I'm cheap, is that really a character flaw? I like to call it "frugal.")

Television:

Soy solo un televisor cuando vivo con mis padres. A la universitario, no veo t.v. Me gusta "Sexo y la Cuidad," "ER," "Derecho y Orden," pero nada mas. Me intresan los canales de "Descubrimiento" y "Historia." Oh! tambien, "La Canal de Viajes." :)

Books:

East of Eden by Steinbeck!! Schindler's List and way more....will update someday...
Ok...so that was like a million years ago...so here's an updated reading list: The Bible...:), Redeeming Love, The Love Languages of God, and The Purpose Driven Life...THESE are the best books ever! :) Read them...:) If you have recommendations message me! :) Blue Like Jazz, Captivating...and I WILL read Wild at Heart
Another update!!!! Sense and Sensability is a really good read. Quick too, but that's only if you lock yourself up away from the blasting wind in Switzerland and eat chocolate all day! (I REALLY need to get some help....Chocolahoics Anonymous must be in Switzerland, right???)
