I'm 26, I'm on my way to becoming a horse trainer, it's my dream job. Recently ended a serious relationship, so I'm not really sure what I'm looking for, just to meet some cool people, and take my mind off of painful things, just being honest. I love the rest of my life, have 3 dogs, a spoiled little boston terrier, and 2 little boston/something mixes as well as 2 cats. I love to travel and experience different places (I've lived all over- Seattle, Paris, St. Louis, Northern Virginia, West Virginia, etc), though I know that at somepoint I want to settle down in the wilderness somewhere (well somewhere that I can still work with horses).

I am bubbly, crazy, and adventursome

I'm going to be a horse-trainer, and hopefully work with horse rescue and rehabilitation in the future. I am just finishing up my RM VI at Meredith manor and moving back to Northern Virginia. Very excited to experiment with self-sufficiency on my little farm (so excited for goats and chickens, and growing vegetables) and hopefully find a position somewhere in the area working with/riding/training horses. I guess maybe it's not the norm, but it makes me happy.

empathizing with people and animals, remembering useless facts/trivia while not being able to find my keys/cellphone/shoes/you name it. Telling stories about my various adventures. Having Adventures! (anything can be an adventure!)

Honestly-probably the freckles- sometimes the tattoos, or the colorful hair - though it is mostly natural now...

a) I read a lot-probably too much, lots of non-fiction about animals horse training, homesteading, being self-suffiecient/how to survive the end of the world, farming, science, the envirionment, love old school sci-fi, have a soft spot in my heart for silly vampire novels and other fnatasy fluff, palaniuk and gaimen are my favorite modern fiction authors, love classics.
b) ok there are a lot of movies I love but this takes a long time, so here are a few all time fav's

The Last Unicorn, SNL Best of Christopher Walken, The Princess Bride, , MirrorMask, Hedwig and the Angry Inch
Little Miss Sunshine (seriously this movie is my life and my family, but so hilarious)

Also I think everyone should watch what the bleep do we know- I have the special extended 6 hr edition
I also feel that TV series are and important thing here... so here goes, Joss Whedon is my god, well maybe not so far as that but Firefly, and Buffy are awsome, and even Angel I like, though Firefly is soo good. though I do also like Dr. Who and I admit it I occaisionally enjoy watching Highlander, that cheesiest of all cheese! but the hair! and come on where did that sword come from?!? Like silly crime dramas on tv (think Bones or Castle or Monk) love Burn Notice (but that might have soemthing to do with Bruce Campbell) & 30 Rock

c) Music- well I am pretty musically challenged- mostly my friends find cool music and I listen, that said I listen to a pretty big variety of music but my favorite types are definatly Punk and Ska, but I love Regge, Classical, Rock(Classic and contemporary), Jazz, French Music, Musicals, Opera ( I admit it, I have a weird obsession with Wager's Ring Cycle - it was my FAVORITE thing to watch when I was a kid) really a lot, someday I will come put bands and favorite songs, but that takes so long.

d) food- The more exotic the better(this does not neccissarily mean spicy), though I could live off of Mexican food everyday and never get bored. other favorites are Thai, Indian, Afghani, Greek, and of course Italian And how could I forget sushi! very excited to move back to a part of the country where I can at least kind of trust the raw fish.
-Oh also I am not vegetarian, but I don't really eat very much meat, and if you want to understand why, or what kinds of meat I do eat, read anything by Michael Pollan about food. that said, most of the time i do eat vegetarian food, and it is pretty rare for me to actually prepare meat (though I do love a rare grass feed locally raised steak on occaission)

Not neccessarily in any order (except for #1)
1. Rosie (my spoiled little Boston Terrier)
2.access to horses/nature/ the great out of doors ( I wilt in cities)
3.my books
4. good friends and family
5. something to paint, draw, doodle, build, create with
6. My cell phone ( not really because i make so many phone calls, but it is my phone, organizer, address book, calander, watch, alarm clock, etc so I am kinda lost without it)

to tell you the truth, I'm just a tad bit ADD, so I don't really know, but there are some great one liner's i've said sitting around the house on post-it notes.

Probably at home watching a Movie or reading a book cuddled with the puppies, quite possibly asleep, let's face it when you spend at least 12 hours a day outside working with horses your exhausted by friday night, I think the one time I did go out I was ready to come back by 11!

I Share my bed with three dogs and a cat!- well only a dog right now, the other dogs chased of the cat, and now that it's not winter that got crowded so it's crate training time.

you like animals, like weird smart stuff, cause If we ever hang out I may end up going on for hours about medieval patriarchal inheritance systems( I was a medival studies/art history major before I went crazy and quit school to be a horse-trainer), or I might make fart jokes and watch family guy while running around jumping up and down like a baboon(ok fairly unlikely, but...you just never know!)
