About Me

I have very high standards for myself. I live by my moral and ethical values. Im a sponge for new things be it political knoledge or the latest eco friendly carpet cleaning. Respectability and appropirateness are important to me and I really dislike people that dont have common courtesy.I teach ballet, and this is something I will never stop doing. Even though it cuts into a lot of my "free" time, I cant imagine my life with out dance. It is my only true escape. This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!
