One Big Circle Jerk

About Me

I came to California from Chicago in 2003. I enjoy great cities that offer art galleries, theater, music, good food, good coffee, nightlife, and museums. But what really excites and fascinates me is exploration of the outdoors. I am almost finished with grad school and look forward to whatever comes next!THINGS I'M NOT SO GOOD AT: Keeping secrets-especially if they are good. I am the worst at surprises because I can't seem to hold the excitement in. Also, I am such a Pisces. I find myself daydreaming a lot. Whistling, math, snapping my figers. SOME OF THE BEST TIMES OF MY LIFE: Laughing until I cry, getting to know new people, running into old friends, sending someone a letter, receiving a letter out of the blue, roller skating with my sister back in grade school, playing racquetball with my dad, falling off the ski lift with my sister, keeping secrets with my mom and laughing wildly about them with her, the trip my sister and I took to France, taking a walk in the deep snow with my family after being snowed in for a day.FAVORITE THINGS: Laughter, sunrise, sunset, music, family, friends, animals, nature, a new outfit, live music, funny movies, hockey games, looking through old photos, the perfect kiss, a good joke, dancing, strawberries, jetting off on a vacation, family reunions, beach parties, peanut butter, accents, Costa Rica, a challenging class, the end of the semester, Thanksgiving, Christmas, dogs, the excitement there is before seeing someone you really like....too many things to list....BUT pretty much any thing that adds some spice to my life!THINGS THAT DISGUST ME: hatred, intolerance, crooked cops, bad teachers, standardized tests, jealousy, drama, George Bush, parking tickets, any and all forms of abuse, fake people, not using turn signals, people who throw trash out of their cars, pop, processed foods, smoke... travel layout @ HOT FreeLayouts.com MyHotComments
