So, the best way to describe myself? Loud, obnoxious, extremely extroverted, a bit of a flirt, definitely one of the guys, incurably awkward and seemingly strange. But, it all combines to form someone who has a decent heart and the complete inability to judge. I'm extremely trusting, almost too much so, but hey: trusting too much is far better than never trusting at all. :)

I'm a big girl, but hell, I won't lie: I love my softness and curves. Besides, it's nice to be able to play with guys and not have them worry about crushing you. :P So if that's not your thing, that's cool.

Just don't get the wrong impression about me. Just because I'm big doesn't mean I'm not active. I've done color guard for over 8 years (indoor and outdoor), softball, volleyball, equestrian sports and more. I also love spending an hour or so at the gym a few times a week.

Music is my life. Seriously. Many people say that, but mine is such a passion it's ridiculous - I listen to anything and everything. Look at my iTunes playlist and you will see everything from Robin Thicke, the Four Tops, Michael Jackson to The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Keating, Trapt, Nine Inch Nails to things like Miles Davis and Chris Botti. However, the only thing that would make me crazier is if I played an instrument. Damn the man! :P

I'm currently a graduate student working on her Master's in Secondary Education. Journalism, which I got my Bachelor's in, wasn't my forte. So let's go with kids ... I'm pretty good with them. :)

I also work as a server, bartender and shift manager at a local restaurant. Not to mention I find time to be social and silly. In addition to that, I am a photographer and my work is in a local gallery - I'm pretty stoked!

That's my favorite part though: being social and spending time with my friends and my family. Bars, clubs, or just chilling at their places ... it's no matter to me. Time is usually quality time when we're causing some sort of ruckus.

... reading people, catching liars, making people laugh and feel good about themselves. Oh, and naming almost any song that's on the radio. Title and artist, of course.

Physically: my weight (let's not lie, but I'm not worried about it), my lips/smile and my eyes.

Personality: how loud I am as well as how goofy and friendly I am.

Books: 1984/Animal Farm, Bridget Jones' Diary, the Harry Potter and Twilight Series, He's Just Not That Into You, Jane Green, Steinbeck, To Kill A Mockingbird, Huckleberry Finn ... I was an English major so there are quite a few.

Movies: Empire Records, Anchorman, the Bourne series, Austin Powers, Ace Ventura, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Clerks I/II, Harry Potter, Sydney White, Hitch, etc. Overall, comedies and action movies are glorious.

Music: Everything. Literally. But John Mayer = love.

Food: Eh, I'm not picky, ironically enough. ;)

Love. Passion. Literature. Music. Laughter. Life.

... what exactly I want to do with my life. I have wayyyyy too many goals I want to achieve.

... usually getting off work and going out to a bar or a club unless there's something chill and fun going on at home or with friends. I'm usually where people are at though.

... is that although I'm a BBW, I'm a total narcissist when I want to be. It took me a while to get that kind of confidence, but now that I have it, it's not going anywhere. ;)

... you're not intimidated by a big woman with no inhibitions and a ton of goals and dreams. Someone who is educated, funny and self-assured (not to mention tall and sweet ;) ) should also feel free to say what's up. :P
