Hi!

My name is Hope. Welcome to my profile! :)

I am currently in a relationship with the most wonderful guy on earth, and plan to be for a long, long time, if not forever.

That means that if you message me looking for a date or anything else along those lines, I hereby am entitled to scoff at you for not reading. :D

That probably makes you wonder why I'm still on this site, right?

Well, honestly, I just keep hoping that maybe I'll make some friends on here or something, who knows?

So, I just realized I haven't updated this in forever. I'm still working on my Associates degree, although I changed my major to Media Marketing and Management. I had to switch because honestly, I fail royally at accounting. But yeah.

I'm set to graduate this spring, and then I'm hoping to start working on a Bachelors in Advertising and PR at RIT, if I can afford it!

Firstly, swimming and water related activities. I worked a swim instructor and lifeguard for many years, and was on swim team for an additional 6!

Secondly, cooking and baking. Mostly baking, but hey.

I also love to make jewelry and scarves and things, I even have my own small business, called Hope's Handcrafted Treasures. Check it out here (just replace the dots!):

Well, firstly, I'm a natural golden blonde, that tends to stick out. I did finally cave and dye it dark brown, though, just for a change of pace. I also have very bright blue eyes, and a rather pale complexion.

Personality wise, I think I'm pretty funny, outgoing, loud, I can be a little obnoxious at times. If you hate sarcasm and dry remarks, don't bother messaging me, you'll be annoyed within 5 minutes.

I'm also very outspoken. I have a strong point of view on pretty much everything, and I'm not afraid to speak my mind. I am not afraid to debate, in fact, I enjoy it.

Books: The Dark Tower series, Harry Potter (although I never read the last one, should probably do that sometime) and pretty much anything by Stephen King. I like mostly horror, but I enjoy some good old fashioned science books as well. (Yes, I read Discover magazine, and I'm female. Take that, stereotypes.)

Movies: I don't have too many, but I love anything that'll scare that crap out of you. Nothing too pointlessly gory, though, I'm not a big fan of blood and guts. In fact, I hate them. And nothing with animal abuse, I can't stand that. Why, in almost every movie, do they always end up killing the dog or whatever? Seriously, so unneccessary.

Music: Varies, really. Rock, classical, etc. I like all sorts of things, from Journey to Final Fantasy OSTs.

Food: I love Italian food. I also like chocolate, and gummy bears. And lots of other stuff.

My boyfriend, music, my friends, my swim team hoodie, the memories of my cat Snooky (rest in peace, little buddy), and german chocolate ice cream.

Why people message me looking to get some action and don't read the first paragraph of my profile.

Bored out of my mind.

I'm deathly phobic of needles. You know, the kind they stab you with at the doctors office >.>;

I had my arm cut open with one when I was a kid, and ever since....hooboy.

*shudder*

You acknowledge that I'm in a relationship and you aren't looking for anything other than friendship.
