About Me

Adventurous and energetic Pioneering and courageous Enthusiastic and confident Dynamic and quick-witted.Hmmmm.... About me, about me.... I LOVE BUTTERFLIES! I LOVE CHEESE! lol I always have like 4 beverages on my desk at all times.... I like sugar free redbull.... I like listening to the rain, as cheesy as it sounds.... I love being near the ocean. I love makeup, I think it is fun and it is nice. I don't wear a lot on a daily basis though. I have a ton of it though because it makes me happy:o) I love to write, I have no choice, it's how I express myself and I hope to be a published author oneday. If I can handle putting my heart out there like that. Honesty is the best policy in most cases, but sometimes ommission and discretion is necessary. I have been told I am the bad thing that happens to good people. I try not to believe it though. I am an Aries and although I don't follow the zodiac/Astrology thing full force, I do think that if you read about an Aries, you're reading about me....lol Totally. I love my family and the few friends I keep close. I would do whatever I could to help someone, even if they were a stranger. I like to smile often and live life to the fullest. I don't know what else.... Just dance.... no matter where you are dance like nobody's watching....I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

My Interests

Reading, writing, painting, drawing, dancing, having fun, chilling out, taking walks on the beach(I know, I know....). What can I say--I'm a romantic!! I am interested in theology, history, art, literature and having interesting conversations about things that actually matter. OR, on the flip side I like relaxing and doing nothing but being laid back and talking about silly, pointless stuff! So, go figure man....

I'd like to meet:

Drew Barrymore, Angelina Jolie, Oprah, My Dad, Richard Bach, Jennifer Weiner, The Love of My Life already!, Chris Rock, Jennifer Garner and a lot of people, I like meeting new people. It is always fun to make new and interesting friends.... Unless you get on my nerves, then all bets are off!

Music:

Ani DiFranco is my favorite. Her lyrics speak to me, her performance's are always amazing and real. She simply rocks. Year Of The Locust(YOTL) of course!! They are not only my friends, but they ROCK!! If someone doesn't sign them soon, they don't recognize true talent when they see it!! I also like Jeff Buckley,Sublime,Sarah McLachlan, Breaking Benjamin, The Cranberries, Shaquira, The Garden State Soundtrack, Alanis Morisette, Jack Johnson, Damien Rice, Anna Nalick, Kansas(dust in the wind).... Gosh, if I like it I listen to it. I don't discriminate based on genre. Sticking myself in to one category never really worked for me.

Movies:

Pretty Woman, Beaches, Steel Magnolias, The Way We Were, Breakfast At Tiffany's, Mad Love, The Prince And the Showgirl, Let's Make Love, Any Shirley Temple Movie, Garden State, The Shawshank Redemption, Sabrina(old and new versions), Boys On the Side, Amalie, Girl Interrupted, Original Sin, and Fight Club(Allie Understands), The Matrix(first one), Go, Maid In Manhatten, Money Train, Almost Famous, Le Divorce, Charlies Angels(First One), Bridgette Jones Diary(First One), How To Deal, Scarface, Rudy, Good Will Hunting, Mad Love....etc.... So many movies, too many to name them all--I LOVE them!!

Television:

GREY'S ANATOMY!!!! Ahem:MEREDITH: "Okay, here it is, your choice... it's simple, her or me, and I'm sure she is really great. But Derek, I love you, in a really, really big pretend to like your taste in music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a radio over my head outside your window, unfortunate way that makes me hate you, love you. So pick me, choose me, love me."Friends(box set....Allie understands again), Boston Legal, My So Called Life(Box Set-Duh squared!), The O.C., Will & Grace, Real World Vs. Road Rules Challenge's on MTV, Any of the reality challenges on MTV, Punk'd, Pimp My Ride.... My secret obsession, which is obviously a secret no longer, lol, American's Next Top Model.... So many I like, unfortunately I don't watch enough....

Books:

Alice: "Oh, as if you had no choice? There's a moment, there's always a moment, "I can do this, I can give into this, or I can resist it", and I don't know when your moment was, but I bet there was one. "~Closer~

Heroes:

My Sister Toni, she raised my from a very young age and she was young herself. I will always be greatful for that. My Sister Juliann, she is raising 3 beautiful children who I Love. She is my hero because she is a wonderful Mom, great Sister to me, and a kind person. I don't know how she does it sometimes. And Gini karanik is also a hero of mine, she is one of the smartest, most Loving people I have ever met and I will always be thankful that I had her in my life. She showed me what a Mother's Love was like for a while. And she also taught me that no matter what you start out with, it only teaches you what you don't want and that you can make your life what you want as an adult. THANK YOU EVERYONE, I AM SO BLESSED!!!!
