About Me

Once upon a time,
there lived a very pretty girl
who lived in a beautiful box . . .
and everybody loved her.
I've never done something because I've seen someone else do it. I am a licensed hair stylist and makeup artist . . . but I want to be something more. I sing and dance when I am driving in my car. Aside from paying bills, I spend my money on purchasing handbags & sunglasses. I don't have many openings in my schedule but I kind of like it that way. I don't care for abbreviations (except for @ and & - sometimes). I'm not as naive as you think I am. I may not be perfect (mentally, physically, spiritually, etc) but 'this is life, not heaven . . . you don't have to be perfect.' If you don't think well of me, then please go the fuck away because I'm not here to impress you. If I love you, I will do anything for you; if I can't do it, I will try anyway. I have a lot of goals, there are a lot of things I want to do, and I want to see/hear/feel/taste everything . . . but I don't want to do it alone. Sometimes, I want to pack up and leave without looking back. I've been told numerous times that I am unappreciated. I am looking forward to having my own little family although it's hard for me to imagine getting married in this day and age. I am very good at putting on a happy face when something is hurting me on the inside. I am not a good liar but I think that is a good thing. I love money & I love to spend it but I'm also really good at saving it. I love amusement parks ! I love to give give give and was raised to not expect anything in return (although it's always nice). I am THE most loyal person you will ever come across. Disney films ALWAYS make me cry. I have all of the patience in the world for children & elderly people but I do not have any patience for idiots. I love nature but hiking up steep mountains frightens me. I've always wanted to go on a picnic in the park. I care more about homeless animals than homeless people - bums can get a job if they really wanted to but not too many people want to adopt a stray dog. I love to travel but I pack too much in my suitcase. I recently went to Europe and I am 100% in love with London and Prague (& Budapest). My biggest flaw is that I'm a hopeless romantic wanting to fall in love.
If you read all of this, I'd like to know.

My Interests

I always tell the girls never take it seriously; if you never take it seriously, you never get hurt . . . if you never get hurt, you always have fun . . . and if you ever get lonely, you just go to the record store and visit your friends.

Vitamin Water! Wheat Thins? When my hair gets played with. Whole Foods (the grocery store). WWII (the most interesting time in history).

I'd like to meet:

----------
Had myself a lover . . . I liked him cause of all of the books that he read. And he was like no other boy that I had ever met before, and I loved all the things that he said. I wanted to heal him . . . I did not plan on staying as long. I didn't think I would need him, so how did he become my torture?
----------
I'd like to meet . . .
Someone who loves me as much as I love him & who will remember I exist when another pretty girl walks by . . . someone who will enjoy planning out a fun day & who will always look forward to the next outing together . . . someone who isn't afraid to love & realizes what is right in front of him.
But most of all? I want someone that can make my heart skip a beat.
Is love a tender thing? It is too rough, too rude, too boisterous; and it pricks like thorn.
I want my very own Boo. ♥

You're going to do what you want to do, if it's not what the other person wants to do, it's their problem. You always do what you want to do and she always did what you wanted to do. It's who you are....

Time of my life.

It's strange that something such as visiting Disneyland can help me to realize just how weird and insane life is/can be. I mean, I knew it was but . . . you know when you REALLY realize something? Tha...
