I am here for Friends

About Me


I'm still trying to figure out who the heck I am
By the age of 20, I'd been to all 50 states and about 10 countries
I despise cooked fruit
I absolutely LOVE dessert
I am terrible at playing pool
I'm a strange mix of "tomboy" and "girly girl"...i have a lot of guy friends, but i love pink and all things fashion oriented, and getting all dressed up...not really sure how that fits together, but it does : )
I think the best is yet to come
I'm obsessed with shoes
I'm a little bit of a tree-hugger.
I love playing games of all kinds - board games, card games, word games - I've been that way since I was little
I still believe that there is a "Prince Charming" out there somewhere for me, but I wonder if we'll ever find each other
I'm slightly OCD, but not about everything. Wonder if there's something psychological there
I've been going to Disneyland annually since I was a baby, and I still think it's a cool place to go
I hate scary movies (I think I was scarred for life as a child; if you know me well enough, you know the story)
I sing in the car ALL the time
I love wearing new clothes for the first time
I love flying home at Christmas and seeing all the Christmas lights from the plane
I HAVE NEVER SEEN THE MOVIE "TOP GUN"
Since I was a child, people dressed up in costumes freak me out a little. I mean people I don't know, like the "Santa" in the mall. And clowns.
I think rainbows are completely amazing
I want to learn how to ballroom dance
I am sick of insanely skinny celebrities; can we please have a better role model for females than a walking skeleton?!?!
I love, love, LOVE to cook
I'm left-handed (suprisingly, many people that know me well do not know this about me)
I cannot stand spiders, no matter what size
I really, really like those old claymation-esque Christmas shows
I think that if you own a cool little sports car and insist on going 30 mph everywhere, you deserve to have that car taken away and given to someone who knows how to use it.
I'm a member of the International High IQ Society
I can play the nose flute : )

(yep, that's exactly what it looks like)
I think the simple chord progressions of old church hymns are simply beautiful
When I go out to eat, 9 times out of 10, I need a to-go box
When I'm stressed out, depressed, or some other not-so-happy feeling, I love to just get in my car and drive, listening to good music.
I love cotton candy!
I honestly think I embody one of the strangest amalgamations of interests and skills on the face of the planet.
I love when you wake up early and realize you don't have to be anywhere, so you get to go back to sleep.
I like to use the word "dude"
I'm a little ashamed of my generation's lack of knowledge of how to use the words "your" and "you're"...one is possessive, the other isn't...not that hard
Why don't they make band-aids in darker colors, for people with dark skin tones?
Sometimes I like to argue, simply for the sake of arguing
I'm a complete Jesus Freak
If it were up to me, nobody would use capital letters when typing.
I sometimes wish i could be a little kid again, so i could really enjoy all the freedom.
"Am I now trying to win the approval of men or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ." -Galations 10:10
These are some websites that support causes that are important to me, check them out:


My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Mozart, Beethoven, Da Vinci, Van Gogh, Monet, Switchfoot, Phil Wickham, Casting Crowns, Chris Tomlin, Jesus, Oprah, Josh Groban, Michael Buble, any of my grandparents when they were young, Captain Jack Sparrow, Alf, or anybody who is cool and laid back...
