Forget it..... I can't ever think of anything original!!!

About Me



My name is Amanda. I am originally from Columbus, OH but I have lived in the Portsmouth area for about three years, and before that I lived in and around Huntington, WV for about a year and a half. Is there ANYTHING to do in this town?? I'm starting to get used to this weird place. I miss Columbus a lot, but I do like how things are so much more laid-back here. I'm going to try college again later in '08 at Shawnee State University. I'm kinda shy, but very sweet (most of the time, anyways). I have a very strange sense of humor (extremely goofy, sometimes to the point that people worry about my sanity!!!) and most people would describe me as being "hippie-like".

My Interests


Hanging out with friends, camping / nature, music, animals, going on walks, going out occasionally, traveling (when I get the chance to), reading, going to concerts/festivals ect...,

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet just about anyone really, unless you're just totally evil (a little to moderate evil is okay LOL), anyone I went to school with that didn't torture the living daylights out of me, those with lots of wisdom (and wouldn't mind sharing some of it with me) open-minded/non-judgmental people, other Amanda's, and other people who are also pisces. If you feel like a loner or outcast, we will probably get along very well. Oh yeah, how could I forget?? I'd LOVE to meet just about anyone famous LOL

Music:



Just about anything really! My favorite music is rock. My favorite band is a tie between Kiss and Aerosmith. I am also a big Nickelback fan. I tend to like older music.
