I am sometimes talkative, often unromantic, and easily distracted.
My Self-Summary
I'm not really your average girl. I never did cheerleading or girl
scouts or... really any extra-curricular activities. I wasn't a
band geek. I was kind of a
choir freak, though. I graduated high
school with a 3.7 GPA. I graduated college with my AA in Liberal
Arts with a 3.7 GPA.
I've had several boyfriends, and it always feels a little weird to
me. I get bored easily, and I never really know what to do, in a
relationship. I'm currently seeing
Masked_bandit. We'll see how that
goes. I'm optimistic.
Let's see, what else? I live with my folks in an old farm house in
a small town near Kalamazoo. It's... okay. I look forward to making
enough money/find a roommate who I can stand so I can move out. I
*almost* make enough to get my own place, and that's ultimately my
goal. I like my alone time, although I typically fare better when
I'm social.
I don't drive. I hate driving. I don't have my license. I don't
have a car. I don't have any intention of getting either (unless I
can afford a SmartCar. Then I'll get my license. Those things are
so freaking adorable!).

What I’m doing with my life
Currently, I am working at a liquor store. It's a job. I'm thankful
for it, even though some days when I wake up in the morning (at the
crack of noon, since I work second shift) I feel like jumping in
front of traffic instead of going into work.
I keep considering going back to
school, but it's so expensive, and I
don't know what I want to do with my life, so going back to school
for nothing seems rather pointless. Still, I did like going to
classes and learning new things.
I like to
travel.
I've only been outside the country once. I went to London, and it
was amazing. I want to travel more, but it is expensive, so we
shall see.

I’m really good at
baking. I love to
bake. I also like to
cook, but I generally think I am better at
baking.
listening. Although this is sort of a sometimes thing. I have a bad
habit of interrupting.
...Um. Other things, but I won't say what here. You shall have to
ask.
The first things people usually notice about me
My
labret stud, one
of my piercings.
My
tattoo - well,
one of them. Music notes above my left wrist.
Um. I lisp? I suppose that's sort of noticeable. I guess probably
most 20-somethings don't lisp. However, my coworker insists that
it's cute.
I'm short and curvy.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
My favorite book is
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. If
you haven't read it, go do so. It's life-changing. Or
life-affirming. Something. It's a great book.
My favorite movie is probably either The Day After Tomorrow, or
National Treasure. I like semi-realistic movies. If after watching
it, I can think, "Yes, this could really happen" I like it.
My favorite genre of music is country. I like patriotic songs, and
sad songs. If it's sad and patriotic, all the better. I actually
also like a lot of Christian music. I love Celtic music, show
tunes, and lots of other stuff, too.
I like trying new and different foods. Indian food is yummy, but a
tad bit too spicy. Chinese food disgusts me, but that's because I
ate it at least three times a week for three or four years, and I'm
not exaggerating at all.
The six things I could never do without
Tea, kisses, cookies, conversation, books, and writing.
CupidRich helped me
make this list. :)
I spend a lot of time thinking about
What I'm going to do with my life (hopefully make myself useful at
this new job), what I should spend my money on (most recent big
expense: a new tattoo), why I never have time to do anything
(second shift suuuucks).

On a typical Friday night I am
Home. Like now. Go figure.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I actually twiddle my thumbs. Literally. Anything else you shall
have to ask me.
You should message me if
you're participating in NaNoWriMo. (Or if you want to know what it
is.)
you're looking for friends, like me! I'm not looking for a
boyfriend or a girlfriend or anything like that -- I've got
Masked_bandit
for that right now. One boyfriend is enough.
You should NOT message me if you can't type properly (really,
capitalization isn't required but you should make an effort on
spelling and punctuation like commas and apostrophes in the proper
places), if you're married, if you're just looking to score.
