About Me

~about me? hmm... ~currently attending jjc. transferring to uic in the fall. thinking either psychology or social work ~maybe one day ill join the peace corps, but then again, maybe not ~someone once told me that if you knew you were dreaming you could have complete control...like the control to fly. never believed it until recently i realized i was dreaming and flew about 10 feet in my dream. probably the most amazing feeling in my life. try it ~i say "right" way too much ~i recently spent $15000 and 1500 hours learning that i hate doing hair and how to knit ~i love my hair ~i love to read so please recommend something~i am a nocturnal creature ~and give me music recommendations, i hate searching for it on my own ~dont doubt that i wont rip out the batteries to any ticking clock that is in my audible range ~my room is a bit overwhelming and it makes me squirm ~i cant wait to put on a sundress and just be outside. i wanna play catch, read a book on a hammock, go camping, lay on a beach...ahh ~i do love being 21 ~i detest anyone who belittles women ~i love to sing and dance and am probably doing one or the other pretty much constantly ~mud football, anyone? ~i am a good listener and am patient ~ if anyone happens to have an extra jaw lying around id like to replace mine. thanks ~youre always welcome to ask me anything. im a pretty open person ~oh, and, apparently, i make these obnoxious noises when im eating something absolutely delicious ~my im: bmonp1213found this retro layout at HOT FreeLayouts.com

I'd like to meet:

“No, not just love, I’m talking about the cycle of life. I’m talking about finding some alien creature and deciding to marry her and stay with her forever, no matter whether you even like each other or not a few years down the road. And why will you do this? So you can make babies together, and try to keep them alive and teach them what they need to know so that someday they’ll have babies, and keep the whole thing going. And you’ll never draw a secure breath until you have grandchildren, a double handful of them, because then you know that you line won’t die out, your influence will continue. Selfish, isn’t it? Only it’s not selfish, it’s what life is for. It’s the only thing that brings happiness, ever, to anyone. All the other things-victories, achievements, honors, causes-they bring only momentary flashes of pleasure. But binding yourself to another person and to the children you make together, that’s life. And you can’t do it if you life is centered on you ambitions. You’ll never be happy. It will never be enough. Even if you rule the world.” -Mrs. Wiggin. Shadow of the Hegemon
