..~ ROOMMATES IN RALEIGH: ME & JEN AT RED ROOM AND SULLIVAN'S ~******
| View Show | Create Your Own I recently moved to Raleigh with my best friend from Nursing school, and I am having the time of my life! A perfectionist by nature, I have stopped trying to plan out every second of my future and I am finally living in the moment. A city girl at heart, but I appreciate and will never forget the simple pleasures and ease of living in a small town. Someday, the beach will be a second home for me- that is one thing that's non-negotiable! I am a Registered Nurse; worked for my first year out of school in a Pediatric ICU at a Trauma-1 center in Greenville. Cardiology is my passion in medicine (many of you know why...), so I recently accepted a position in Duke's Heart Center. I assist Electrophysiologists with surgical procedures~ basically anything that has to do with rhythm disturbances in the electrical system of the heart. I am still working part-time in the PICU, because I love taking care of kids and couldn't leave all the friends I made on the unit. I grew up on the West Coast (Northern California, then Portland, then college in Seattle) and have spent 2 unforgettable summers living in Santa Barabara and San Diego. I moved down South for nursing school 4 years ago, and haven't left- If I can convince my family and friends from back home to move here, I will be in absolute heaven...believe me, I'm workin on it! I plan to go to graduate school, and I am looking at Duke and UNC as my top choices....we'll see! Life's too short to not explore- and keep your options open, there's so much out there to be seen! ..

My Interests



.. TRAVELING!!! Weekend getaways and far away countries...THE BEACH; anything that keeps me in the sun and salt water...good conversations with new and old friends... being a wine snob, Offshore fishing... Bloody Mary's at brunch after a night of Vodka Tonics, Starbuck's Mochas- extra hot...feather beds...dresses, skirts and flip-flops...sushi and really fresh seafood, Carolina weather- you can't beat it...dancing, exercising, bubble baths...the rare days with no particular agenda to follow...children's contagious laughter, cuddling !!!Hurricane parties and the peaceful calm after thunderstorms...concerts with Jen-Jen; somehow we always end up meeting the band...sunsets over the Pacific and sunrises above the Atlantic; both are equally as beautiful!

I'd like to meet:

My friends are really great, so that's a hard act to follow...I love meeting new people everyday; I always learn something new, whether it be trivial or profound. Someone who'll take tango and salsa lessons with me :) Anyone with an open mind- who can laugh at themselves, at life and looks at the world through optimistic eyes...MY SISTER AND I IN WILMINGTON, NC- IT TRULY CAN'T GET MUCH BETTER THAN THIS!!!

..

Music:

I love all kinds of music- especially if there's a live show to go to- outdoor concerts beat everything else-(I miss the Gorge!). Some favorites... Jack Johnson, Tom Petty, Ben Harper, Tift Merrit, Train, David Gray, Joni Mitchell, Tim McGraw and lovely Faith, Dave, Van Morrison, Counting Crows, Wyclef, James Taylor, John Mayer, Maroon 5, Sarah McLaughlin, Nashville up-and-comings, Jackson Browne, Coldplay, Norah Jones, James Blunt, Ryan Adams, Nelly Furtado, just to name a few...

Totally depends on my mood at the time...A Beautiful Mind, Oceans 11, Almost Famous, Shawshank Redemption, How to Lose a Guy in 10 days...Dirty Dancing, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Steel Magnolias, Love Actually, Fried Green Tomatoes, In Good Company, Pretty Woman... although those of you who know me well, know that sitting still for 2 hours sometimes poses as a challenge!
