~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~

I surround myself with beauty.
My name's Nina. I live a bit of a dual lifestyle, which I guess suits my bipolar personality: By day, I am a mild-mannered, responsible, respectable elementary school teacher; by night & weekend, I am a somewhat goth/punk-looking wild child. Bizarre, huh? Kinda like everything else about me: I was born and raised a good little Mormon girl, and although somewhere inside I still adhere (I can curse like a fuckin' sailor, but won't use the Lord's Name in vain)...I am certainly not an avid practitioner ( Gandhi said it best here. ), and I also have a penchant for astrology. I have several piercings but won't get tattoos, yet I dig them on others. My ardent passion is learning and the never-ending quest for all knowledge, though I consistently kill brain cells by recreation. My IQ resides solidly somewhere between 130 and 155, yet I wish it was much, much higher because I care about superfluous numbers like that. I don't eat meat, but I don't eat healthy either (I'm addicted to sour candy and all ice cream). I am painfully perfectionistic (and alliterative a lot?), detail-oriented, and organized, but my home is usually a disaster area! I am very open-minded and also very stubborn. I play the flute and write poetry, but still don't believe that I have a creative bone in my body. My art sucks, as does my singing, so I choose the company of artists and singers. My Mommy and my kitties are awesome! I am madly in love with my fantastic husband, Kai, who happens to be the most perfect and gorgeous boy ever. My pirate name would be "Red Anne Cash"...oh, and I also secretly want to be a Vulcan named Jazmynn (ideally with T'Pol as my lesbian lover)...I guess the only sure thing about me is that I'm idiosyncratic as hell and relatively unpredictable!
Your Birthdate: September 20
You are a virtual roller coaster of emotions, and most people enjoy the ride.
Your mood tends to set the tone of the room, and when you're happy, this is a good thing.
When you get in a dark mood, watch out - it's very hard to get you out of it.
It's sometimes hard for you to cheer up, and your gloom can be contagious.
Your strength: Your warm heart
Your weakness: Trouble controlling your emotions
Your power color: Black
Your power symbol: Musical note
Your power month: February What Does Your Birth Date Mean?
What Do You Need in Your Life?
You need understanding.
In your life there have been many people that could never seem to comprehend your personality. Now you have either become an out-cast because of their narrow minds or you have adjusted yourself to them, and never letting them see who you are deep inside. You now think that no one will ever understand you and you hate that fact. Though you are scared of what the effects might be if you would decide to let someone in, so you keep a safe distance that you both curse and bless.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

No one. I'm a hermit.
Just kidding...sort of...Perhaps... Scrabble enthusiasts and sci-fi nerds . People who take responsibility for their own lives. Those with tolerance and open minds. Very open, but perhaps not to the point of your brain falling out. Anyone who can truly make me laugh. Someone with whom to practice kung fu . And...hopers, dreamers, laughers, thinkers, lovers, artists, believers, learners, doers, givers, readers, writers, and anyone who needs to talk.

How You Are In Love

You take a while to fall in love with someone. Trust takes time.

In relationships, you tend to be a bit selfish.

You tend to get very attached when you're with someone. You want to see your love all the time.

You love your partner unconditionally and don't try to make them change.

You stay in love for a long time, even if you aren't loved back. When you fall, you fall hard.
