About Me

I'm an OU graduate!!!!!!
Also, I don't know why my "networking" sections says that. Hmmm...
the most important things in my life are learning, love, passion, friends and family, especially my babies!
..
family is more important than anything. it seems it takes a lot of people a long time to realize that, and maybe some never will. i know, though, that despite the tribulations, my family is what i am, my core and my soul.
..
in this life, if you don't stand for anything, what the hell are you good for?
"in the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends"
-martin luther king jr.
"if louis was right, and you only get one great love, new york may just be mine..."
and just because i like it...
and this, too...
and i'm also really picky about adding people as friends...there are a lot of creepy people on myspace (apparently this wasn't clear enough, soooo...) aka if i've never met you, there's a 99.9% chance i won't add you. not even if you live in norman, went to my high school, know my cousin's friend's uncle's best friend's son. well, maybe if you're super hot...
