About Me

I'm a dynamic person. I'm constantly changing and learning new things. I'm ambitious, I'm a dreamer- to a fault. So show me something beautiful, inspire me, let's dream together. Hahaha. But for real... just about any and every night I just love to kick back with some "Grape Drink", my best friend Justine, an Allure or Glamour magazine and watch White Chicks with any other people who will laugh at it.P.S.~ Clark Griswold and I will make each other VERY happy someday; we're "growing old together." a

My Interests


*Fashion
*Music
*Make-Up Artistry
*Theatre
*Architecture
*Travel
*Sports
*Reading
*Meeting new & interesting people!♥ it!
*And of course...Making the community a better place!
I aspire to be a well established, high status fashion designer or something along those lines, possibly employed with Coco Chanel Design Company (my favorite designer of all time!). [TIDBIT: Coco Chanel brought us the little black dress, the cardigan sweater, and the tweed suit. If you didn't know, you learned something new today!] However, my impatience with sewing may steer me towards a visionary/stylistic career in fashion. One career I would love to begin to venture would be Fashion Journalism.
I most definitely have Disco Fever. I just can't stop thinking about Disco!

I'd like to meet:

I love meeting people that are passionate about something; who want to make a difference in the world. That inspires me. And I love intelligent, intellectual, thought-provoking conversation.

And I will leave you with a poem by Sam Levenson. Audrey Hepburn lived according to this.
"Beauty From Within"For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you'll never walk alone. We leave you a tradition with a future. The tender loving care of human beings will never become obsolete. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed. Never throw anyone out. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others. Your 'good-ole-days' are ahead of you. May you have many of them.
