In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different.

About Me

I can't open the whole can of worms, can I? :) My nutshell is dented from falling out of the trees one too many times, but the nutty insides are still there. Every day, I'm living, learning, and clawing my way through the soils of life. Our souls may get battered and bruised in our lifetime and we may bruise other souls... yet, it all comes down to how we pick up the pieces. I must keep on striving to survive and try to grasp and keep the truth of whom I am. I am a 5'3", brown-eyed carolina girl who is as cute as a button. :) My sense of humor can be any of the following: friendly, dry/sarcastic, campy/cheesy, goofy, or obscure. I am usually shy at first, but warm up quickly with the right individuals, am a home body, side kick, socialite and a flirt. I am at times too serious, funloving, sentimental/emotional, can be wound too tight or not enough, true friend, part anal, part witty, big kid, and an over-all character. I am family-oriented as well as independant with dependant tendencies. I must use the virtue of truth. I am a devout animal and nature lover. I love pretty much anything outdoors, camping, hiking, propelling, sports... soccer, hockey, softball & baseball, snowboarding & wakeboarding, learning, music, visual and performing arts (used to sing and act), reading, writing, anime, gaming, chillin with good company and more. Also, I believe helping others in this world is very important... whether you're giving your last dollar, helping rebuild a house in need, saving an animal, or cleaning up the environment, etc., etc. I say, "Pay it forward!"

Heroes:

My parental units... They have been through so much in life and have instilled great values within me. To this day, they may not always approve of me or my life, but they still provide that unfailing love and support. I have been through a lot and caused them some grief as well. Yet, they will still lend an ear or helping hand.
