About Me

ok people you only have to hear me talk about this stuff every 4 years- so deal! it's election year- IT'S TIME FOR A CHANGE! a radical change. the last 8 years have been awful and the past 4 have been filled with negativity, war and fear mongering with no end in sight unless something REALLY changes. for me that change is Obama. I want hope, change, inspiration and all the other opposites of what we've all been getting. if you have any interest in learning more about him or what you can do let me know. the video below is inspiring to me but if you want further resources i've got em.

Layout Provided By FreeCodeSource.com - Myspace Layouts So I said I would never join myspace but since I have I've connected w/ some amazing old friends and I have discovered some great new music.My name means the cheerful one- I try to live up to it. I have lived all over California and a little bit in Hawaii, I don't know how I ended up in the desert. I love clean sheet day and a cold pillow. I love food and sweets don't indulge too much lately. I like sleeping in. I like doing dishes. I hate vaccuming. People who say excuse me and use their blinkers make me happy. I wish I could play an instrument and speak a foreign language fluently. I will do both eventually. I hate mayonaisse, love mustard. Street cleaners scare me. I am very uncooridinated. I like big words and it bugs me when people mis-use words but my spelling is slowly going downhill. I don't have patience for crappy friends and "aquantainces" but I would do anything for my true friends. I am super close with my family, I wish my grandma lived closer. I love the rain and fog. I think compassion is one of the most important virtues.
