About Me

I aspire to live in the present and have the courage to take chances. I want to be able to throw away the garbage that has piled up over the years and learn to just be, without unrealistic expectations. I want to love by experiencing and not by telling. I want to use my creative side as an outlet for my thoughts and energy and as a way of sharing my talents and insights with others. I'm not afraid to step out of the familiar. I come alive in new and exciting situations. My personality shines through under the right circumstances. For instance, when I am surrounded by like minded people I am confident that I am charming, witty and intelligent and I get a natural high. I also get a natural high from performing either on stage or in front of the camera. There's nothing like getting lost in a character. When I allow the character to truly take over and show her colors, my adrenaline goes through the roof. It's an out of body experience; the world stands still and for a moment nothing else matters.

My Interests

Dancing, Theatre, Acting, Improv, Stand-up Comedy, Alternative Medicine, Hiking, Traveling, Basketball, Yoga, Pilates, Reading and Writing.

I'd like to meet:

I'm mostly on here to keep in touch with people I already know. But it never hurts to meet new people who have something deep and meaningful to say. I'm not looking for compliments. I am looking for depth and truth. There are so many different ways to view the world. Everyone has their own reality. My reality has changed a lot over the years, and my identity has been stripped from me at times. I'm still trying to find out who I am and would love to hear different views on life and love and all the wonderful things we so often take for granted. In my first year after college I began to see just how much of a rollercoaster life is. As much as I hated the ups and downs, I realized that you can't have the sweet without the sour. It's been hard, but I think I'm finally beginning to accept the fact that not everything is going to be perfect. Because a person who thinks everything has to be perfect in order to be happy, will never be happy. Anyway, I'm rambling. What do you think?
