About Me

Wow, what can I say about me...well, depending on who you ask you might get several COMPLETELY different responses. I'm a sweet, caring daughter, a loud, out-going and loyal friend. A devoted and loving bestfriend, and an opinionated and funny sister...but mostly I think you'll hear that I'm goofy and SARCASTIC and (thanks to Krysten) at times a bit flighty...what can I say, I like to keep things interesting! I just recently moved back to Charleston after spending about 3 months in my hometown. Being there helped me realize a lot of things. The first of which being that I have the most AMAZING group of family and friends. My two cousins, the reasons why I moved back, are the most courageous young men I've ever come in contact with. They were dealt a really crappy hand yet they remain strong and resilient. I love them both more than they'll ever know. The second of which being that I absolutely ADORE living in South Carolina. The people I have met here and the relationships I have built could never be replaced. The south has become my home, which is something I was always very hesitant to admit. I was allowed to grow by living here, I no longer feel trapped which is pretty liberating. There are many who don't understand my need to be here, but those who love me, and love me without conditions will back me in the decisions I decide to make. So...back to the basics... I've been a make-up artist for almost 5 years now, it can be a really rewarding job. I make people smile on a daily basis, that is fun for me. I'm in school full-time as well, which has been a rollercoaster of emotions, but I'll be done in a few semesters and I'm definitely looking forward to it ending! In my 22 years I've seen a lot, cried a lot but definitely smiled more. I've learned that love can transcend everything, even death. I've learned that people come and they leave with no notice and that nothing in life is guaranteed. I guess that's what makes it beautiful and miserable at the same time. I've learned that you can't control everything, no matter how hard you try and that sometimes you fail and that sometimes you have no choice but to accept defeat. I've learned that family is everything, even though my family seems to think otherwise. I know to laugh when things don't go as planned to smile when someone hurts you and to relax when life is most stressful. No man is guaranteed tomorrow. And the proof of that stares us in our face daily.
