About Me

In general I am a person who likes many things that have nothing to do with one another, which makes it all the more interesting.
I'm a simply complicated person. To those who really know me I'm simple but to those who don't, they'll think I'm complex. I'm quite a paradigm of contradictions. I don't hide anything from anyone but I also am not one to reveal everything. I like there to be an air of mystery but some things can be private. Just when you think you have me figured out, you probably don't.
I’m a little on the goofy side. I like to laugh and make others laugh and while I am sarcastically witty I would never intentionally hurt another. I’m open minded and non-judgmental to all people, to the best of my comprehension. I love to try to things and will give anything a shot once.
Above all else comes my family and those friends who are like family.
I go by the Buddhist Mantra “It is what it is”. That sums up a lot about me.

My Interests

NASCAR - US Footy (GO BOMBERS and EXPLOSION!) - Brewers - Swing Dancing & Ballroom Dancing - Writing & Reading - Video Games - Traveling - Photography - Art - Education - Concerts - Festivals - Cultural Events - Movies - Going Out

You Are 56% Girly
You're a little girly, a little boyish, and probably a whole lot indie.
You have your own unique style, and it pretty much defies gender lines. How Girly Are You?

You Are Most Like Carrie!
You're quirky, flirty, and every guy's perfect first date.
But can the guy in question live up to your romantic ideal?
It's tough for you to find the right match - you're more than a little picky.
Never fear... You've got a great group of friends and a
great closet of clothes, no matter what!

Romantic prediction: You'll fall for someone this year...

Totally different from any guy you've dated. Which Sex and the City Vixen Are You?

I'd like to meet:

Dale Earnhardt Jr - Carl Sagan - Christropher Walken -Clint Eastwood

Prince Charming, if he even exists... or I'll even be alright with someone who gets it...

Maybe my fairy godmother and perhaps the leperchaun at the end of the rainbow who will give me his VISA card.

My Mom. She is the coolest person I know, or as she would say "coolness". She is beautiful, inside and out. She is strong and loving. Kind and truthful... if I could be half the person she is now and in the future, I am truly blessed. (And good looking for my age)

I might not know the answer to the age-old question of who I am, but I know who I'm not and some of who I am. I am not who you want me to be. I am myself.  Stop expecting me to be who you want me...
