About Me


Where do I start? I'm a 30 year old flip-flop wearin corporate modern day hippie chic. I have a 7 year old daughter who is the light of my life and the most amazing friends a girl could ever ask for!!! I'm genuine, sincere and will go above and beyond for anyone who I care about. Some days I call it a curse...other days, it's a blessing.
I am addicted to Burt's Bees lip balm. I can't live without it. I am also obsessed with butterflies.
I also have an unusually keen sense of smell. I might be blind as a bat and my hearing may be a little off, but if it's in a 2 miles radius I can usually pick up on a smell. You can laugh. Cuz it's funny. True, but funny.
.. You scored as One Intelectual Individual. You're a thinker. You see things from a very different prospective than the rest of the world, and probably find release and self-expression in music, painting, scalpting, or any other form of art. People see you as a deep person, full of knowledge that they don't understand. People are attracted to that, but there's a good chance you don't care.
