About Me

Well, what can I say? This is me...Candice. I'm a simple, down-to-earth girl from the country (it's dat Oxford flava!) who loves to have a good time. My hometown is a small, small town near Durham, NC, so it's literally a speck on the map. I don't regret growing up in a small town because it's taught me to appreciate things in life. I live in Charlotte, NC now so it's completely different from Oxford (even though to me all of North Carolina is country).I'm a Scorpio through and through so you have to come correct when it comes to passion and romance. I would classify myself as chill and laid back because I try to avoid all the BS and drama since it is really not worth it. My faith and my strength are in the Lord because I know that he is one that will never steer me wrong. I'm working on myself to become a better person as HE would have me be.
Right now in my life, I'm just working, working, and working and haven't taken time to really enjoy my life. I'm single at the moment which is okay, since I work so much. Once a man comes into my life however, I focus on him and try to make things work. Also since I'm a sexy voluptuous Sista, I need a man that can handle me in ALL situations..I like being around people that I can have an intelligent conversation with on pretty much any subject that comes to mind.
I love kids (except those bad azz Bebe's kids!) and want to have some of my own one day, even adopt. Overall, I'm here looking to reconnect with friends and make some new ones. If you want to know more, you know what to do.

My Interests

computers, reading, spending time with family and friends, furthering my knowledge since you can never have too much.
