I am here for Friends

About Me

Im 23 years old and live in South KC. I graduated in 2005 from MU with a degree in nursing. While at times I miss college- I never miss being broke all the time and the lack of sleep I got. I work as an RN at a local hospital and am really loving what I do. Besides the definite improvement in income- that is I actually have one now - my job is great becuase I only have to work 3 days a week. I spend my time off enjoying life with my dear friends and family.Layout Provided By FreeCodeSource.com - Myspace Layouts

My Interests

SPENDING TIME WITH FRIENDS- LUCKILY MOST OF THEM LIVE NEAR. CHATTING ON THE PHONE WITH THOSE WHO DONT. READING. RUNNING. THE LAKE. THE SUN. EATING OUT. SHOPPING. MOVIES. PEDICURES. BARS- WELL A BAR!! CROSSWORD PUZZLES. POKER.

Music:

I LIKE PRETTY MUCH ALL MUSIC. IM KIND OF A RADIO JUNKIE--AND LOVE TO FLIP STATIONS CONSTANTLY JUST LOOKING FOR THE SONG I MOST WANT TO HEAR AT THAT MOMENT.

Movies:

THERE ARE SO MANY MOVIES THAT I LOVE. I TRY TO NARROW IT DOWN TO MY TOP 5 OF ALL TIME, BUT THIS LIST CHANGES ON ANY GIVEN DAY. RIGHT NOW I'D SAY (IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER): BLOW, AMERICAN HISTORY X, THE BREAKFAST CLUB, SHASHANK REDEMPTION, AND STAND BY ME.

Television:

EVER SINCE I DISCOVERED TiVo, IVE PRETTY MUCH BEEN ADDICTED TO TELEVISION. MY ROOMMATE AND I RECORD ABOUT 20 DIFFERENT SHOWS ON A WEEKLY BASIS (ITS SO SAD!!). MY FAVORITES: DESPARATE HOUSEVISES, GREY'S ANATOMY, RESCUE ME, AND THE O.C. AND ALTHOUGH I DONT RECORD EVERY EPISODE- IF IM AT HOME- I ALWAYS TURN ON DR PHIL AND OPRAH.

Books:

I HAVE A COUPLE CLASSICS THAT I WILL ALWAYS LOVE- THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO AND TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE. BUT LATELY IVE BEEN READING A LOT BY JODI PICCOULT (MY SISTER'S KEEPER, PERFECT MATCH, THE PACT- ALL GREAT BOOKS). I ALSO REALLY LIKE JANE GREEN. OVER THE LAST YEAR IVE READ ANY BOOK I CAN GET MY HANDS ON BY THESE 2 AUTHORS.

Heroes:

THIS IS EASY- MY MOM AND DAD. THEY ARE BOTH WONDERFUL PEOPLE AND IF I CAN TAKE FROM EACH OF THEM A COUPLE OF THEIR BEST QUALITIES THEN I THINK I CAN BE EXACTLY THE KIND OF PERSON THAT I WOULD LIKE TO BE.
