So, let's see...My name is Jessica. I pride myself in being a good friend by being honest, supportive, and always there when needed. I am a good listener, but I love to talk and share my experiences with others in hopes they can some how benefit from them.

I don't live in Indy yet, but I will be moving there next summer to start grad school.

I am a sarcasm artist. It's a gift really.

I love to laugh, but know when to be serious as well.

I am very passionate about Women's and LGBTQI rights along with the equal treatment of people of all races, ages, sexualities, abilities, genders, religions, ect. I think that people can grow by learning about people who are different from them.

Other cultures fascinate me.

I am full of contradictions...
I am somewhat insecure, but demand respect
I love my friends, but enjoy alone time
I am shy, but don't mind dancing all night in the center of the dance floor
I am a Christian and really liberal

::Fun Facts::
-I have had a bobcat jump on my head..don't worry I wasn't injured
-I have a tiny scar through part of my eyebrow from when my sister pushed me into a brick flower bed...I was injured
-I have three tattoos (foot, back, small one on my wrist)
-My nose is pierced
-I actually don't like roses all that much, I am more of a wild flower kind of girl
-I have had 6 majors in college...I think
-I had straight hair when I was little, and now it's curly. I've never gotten a perm. Figure that out.
-I love cilantro to an abnormal degree

Attributes I find attractive: intelligence, wit/humor, kindness, trustworthiness, someone who is easy to talk to, someone who will talk to me as well. I am not a fan of drama.

School is the main thing in my life. I will graduate in a year with an interdisciplinary degree in women's studies, psychology, and communication. Then it's off to grad school for my masters in social work. I want to be a counselor. It's what I like to do and luckily enough I am good at it.

I also work on campus as a teacher's assistant.

photography...well, I really like it. I'm not sure how good I am, but here is a link to some of my photos http://s622.photobucket.com/albums/tt308/jess17-/

I am a big, beautiful woman. People also compliment my eyes and smile. I've been told I have a classically beautiful face, so that was a huge compliment. Also my height...I'm 5'11

I am not good at picking favorites because I tend to like a lot of things. I am more prone to watch "chick flicks," but also really enjoy action and comedy genres as well. I love: Love and Other Disasters, Dead Poet's Society, Crash, Hotel Rwanda, Becoming Jane, Bridget Jones' Diary, Love Actually, Robin Hood Men in Tights, Princess Bride, iRobot, and more.

I love all kinds of music. It just depends on what I am in the mood to listen to. Sometimes it's rock, other times it's R&B, country, pop, and more. Also, anything I can sing too.

I don't have a lot of time to read for fun due to the amount of reading I have for class. And I spend most of my relaxation time listening to music, on the computer, or watching tv. But I have recently enjoyed reading The Shack and My Sister's Keeper. And I like the Harry Potter series. And, yes, I am aware that it makes me a bit of a nerd :)

I am not very attached to items or things, but here are the things I enjoy having and would miss if I didn't...

computer
cell phone
ipod touch
music
camera
glasses/contacts...i need to see

life in general...the future, the past, goals, family, friends, self improvement. I think about the possibilities life holds.

I also think a lot about social issues such as racism, sexism, heterosexism. I think it's unnecessary to treat people with disrespect because they are different from you. There is beauty in the difference, so embrace it and learn something.

I also think a lot about what this world is doing to people...how our society creates rules that narrow what we accept. We have socially constructed our ideas of race, beauty, relationships, gender roles, and so much more. And it's all limiting and leaves people feeling less than worthy if they don't live up to some random standard we have created. Sorry, my little rant is over now :)

It depends. Sometimes I am dancing, hanging out with friends, or sometimes I am by myself listening to music, on my computer, or watching tv.

I am pretty much an open book to those I know. I try to use my experiences in life to benefit others.

I guess you could say I am on a weight loss journey...changing my lifestyle to be healthier and happier. And it's working. I've lost 65 lbs in the past 7 months (and counting).

you have any questions about the bobcat jumping on my head or anything else
you love to laugh
you like big, beautiful women
you think intelligence is sexy
if you are just looking for a friend
or for any other well-intentioned reason
and lastly if you think I am interesting feel free to message me rather than quick match. I feel odd trying to guess and I promise I won't be rude.
