Luck is Preparation meeting Opportunity.

About Me

I used to be gymnast in high school where I was mainly a Floor Ex. specialist. I made All-Conference on Floor Ex., (mainly because the guy at GBN broke his leg during a meet earlier in the season. I was nasty). I was also a cheerleaderNow, I'm an aspiring actor, unemployed certified bartender w/o "real" experience, and ugly. So I deal with rejection on a daily basis. I have performed at the ImprovOlympic with "The Softest" and I just graduated from the Second City Conservatory with the group "Jamaica University". I guess I could be considered shy, which I am, but I think I'm just more quiet. I'm also the most self deprecating person that you'll ever meet. I don't really like going out to the clubs that much (unless I'm working there). They're loud, you can't talk to your friends, people bumping into you, and people (girls) ignore you. You can be around so many people, and yet, still feel lonely. I'd much rather chill at a bar/pub. .. width="425" height="350" ..

My Interests

Sketch/Improv, Theatre, Video Games, Driving around late at night with no place to go, writing, working out, poker (I could watch it all day)

I'd like to meet:

ANYONE WILLING TO TALK TO ME. Just as long as you don't use the word Crunk, and are serious about it.
