First of all...I'd like to state that LIFE is NOT like a box of chocolates. It's like a jar of jalapenos, because what you do today might just burn your ass tomorrow!

I'm a firm believer in karma...you get what you give. However, sometimes people have to accept that good things come to those who wait. I'm being corny now huh??? Moving on....

As evidenced by the fact that this is NOT my first account, I have come to the conclusion that I am a glutton for punishment. Not in a kinky way though(ahaha. sorry.)

So...if you're looking for a skinny, "hawt", blonde bimbo...I'm totally not your type. I like myself...most days. Other days...I just keep swimming!

Sadly, I'm a people pleaser...and I generally tend to allow my "friends" to run all over me. I know it's a bad idea, but that's just how I am. I'd rather give than take.

I know exactly what I want in life. I'm just not exactly sure when I'll get to the point where everything's my version of "perfection". I know, nothing's perfect, but...there's a certain level of good things that will eventually even out with the crappy things, right?

I spend a lot of my free time studying(woo! I sound like a terribly large amount of fun, right?).

So, what do I like to do? I love high school football games. Mostly for the bands and drill teams. I like sitting on my mom's front porch drinking coffee early in the morning...and sitting in my dad's garage and gossipping with him while he smokes 8 packs of cigarettes in 2 hours(not literally). Texting has become a new obsession. I'm easier to reach by text than actually calling me. I enjoy fishing, but only when I've got someone with me who'll bait my hook...and take my fish off for me.

My favorite colors are lime green and hot pink. I think it may have something to do with the fact that I LOVE watermelon. My favorite smell is a clean man who just got out of the shower...and coconut lime verbena lotion from bath & body works. If you have a good pen, you better hide it from me, because I will steal it from you. That's the only thing I'll steal...along with gum.

I'm in x-ray school. I knew I wanted to do this in FOURTH grade. I absolutely LOVE what I do...I just don't love working for free. Haha. I'll graduate in december. After that, I'd like to move. I've pretty much decided that Louisiana is definitely an option, but so is Arkansas. Louisiana because my best friend lives there, Arkansas because my dad lives in Little Rock.

Someday, marriage and children will be nice, HOWEVER...that's not anything that I'm rushing.

UPDATE--I pretty much have the "cat in the bag?" on a job in texarkana...so I'll be staying in Texas after all! yippee!

plenty of things...

is that I tend to come across as hateful. I kinda have an abrasive personality, you'd have to get to know me to understand. I also have gotten the "nice smile" comment a lot...idk.

books-Twilight series, The Devil Wears Prada, anything by Jane Austen, BellaDonna, Cold Sassy Tree, Lord of the Flies, & Brilliant.

Movies-Twilight(cringes at the juvenile-ish-ness), The Devil Wears Prada, Becoming Jane, Pride and Prejudice, Cold Mountain...to make this list shorter let's just say ANYTHING with Meryl Streep or Nicole Kidman.

Music-I'm so mainstream that it's scary. I like the radio in my car...a lot. I dislike commercials though, so I'm always flipping stations. I go from pop...to country...to rap...to classic rock. I like just about anything, but I can't handle the screaming rock...or anything that's not in english. haha.

Food-Well, I don't eat red meat or many veggies and fruits because I have a digestive disorder(Crohn's Disease). So, I like chicken, fish, cantaloupe!, watermelon!, green beans, grilled cheese, RAMEN!, bananas, bagels, raisin bread, banana bread, and anything that my mom cooks...mmmm.

1. Sleep
2. My mom
3. Cell phone
4. my best friend
5. Water(maybe this should be higher?)
6. Milk.

a lot of things. I'm typically a worry wart. I worry about finding a job...having insurance...being able to pay all my bills(those student loans are about to get me!). I think about just being happy...which for the most part, I am, but things could definitely be better.

at home. yes...my life is a BLAST these days! In about 6 weeks...maybe this will change...I'll be out of school so I'll have a little more time to actually have a LIFE.

I'm afraid of the dark...and...I don't mean just a little afraid. I mean...I have a nightlight...and got a dog just to make me feel safer.

you made it this far reading my ramblings...why not? I quite enjoy a halfway intellectually stimulating conversation & if you were able to make it through all this and not think "Dang, she's an idiot!" I think a deserve some correspondence...don't you?
