I am responsible, logical, and literary.
My Self-Summary
I'm mainly on here to make and take tests, as I already have an
awesome boyfriend with whom I spend most of my time. However, I
would LOVE to make new friends in the area. At any given time, if
I'm not with my BF or my BFFs, I'm probably in an
English or
education class; reading fiction or
poetry for school; reading
science fiction,
fantasy, or
Native
American literature for pleasure; writing papers or e-mails or
the occasional short story or
journal entry; perusing
myspace/facebook, working out by running or swimming or using free
weights; driving around aimlessly in my
Jeep; drinking a latte or green tea at
Starbucks;
singing a chick band song; being a total GIRL by shopping; or
watching nerd shows like
Lost,
Heroes,
Fringe,
Penn and Teller's
Bullshit,
Myth Busters, and
Anderson Cooper 360, or
old episodes of
The X-Files,
Firefly,
Buffy the Vampire
Slayer,
Angel: the Series, and
Mystery Science Theater
3000.

Harry
Potter fan, check out my Sorting Hat test! It's popular AND
highly rated! :D
What I’m doing with my life
I'm currently a student at
Kennesaw seeking my second Bachelor's
in order to obtain teacher certification in high school English. I
graduated from
Middle Tennessee in 2005 with a
BA in English and
philosophy and worked at a law firm
for awhile before realizing that I missed academia. Go figure!
I’m really good at
Surprisingly for an English major, math! Also,
writing, editing, swimming,
singing, giving advice, and anything involving
logic in general.
The first things people usually notice about me
That I smile and laugh a lot, have mad observational skills, and am
a hell of a listener/advice-giver. Of course, on a superficial
level, everyone always thinks I "look like someone they know," be
it a friend, a celebrity, etc.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
(a) Too many too list. I'm a huge fan of Carl Sagan, Orson Scott
Card, Neil Gaiman, Bill Bryson, and Sherman Alexie. I also read a
lot of YA lit, and my favorites include Looking for Alaska by John
Green, Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones, The House of the
Scorpion by Nancy Farmer, Peaches by Jodi Lynn Anderson, and Uglies
by Scott Westerfield.

(d) Thai, Japanese, and Mexican, in that order. My favorite foods
of all time are pears, strawberries, steak, red curry, banana
peppers, and sushi.
The six things I could never do without
1. Vacation/an opportunity to
travel;
2.
Books;
3. Sunglasses;
4. A nearby body of water to swim in, be it an ocean or a
pool;
5. Warm to hot weather most of the year;
6. The internet
I spend a lot of time thinking about
The future, what I SHOULD be doing with my time and life, group
dynamics/interpersonal politics, love and sex, how to reach
personal goals, and story ideas.
On a typical Friday night I am
Hanging out with my sexy boyfriend, doing dinner and a movie with
friends, reading, running, singing
karaoke, or (my personal favorite)
sleeping!
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I used to be obsessed with the Spice Girls. I wanted to BE Baby
Spice. If that's not embarrassing, I don't know what else is!
You should message me if
You are enthusiastic about life, and there's not much you don't
enjoy (or, at least would be willing to attempt to enjoy). Also,
you understand that I am dating someone seriously and thus am
looking for friendship only, have posted pictures and completed a
decently full profile, and have similar interests and a high
friendship or match compatibility with me.
