Heroes
My sister.
She is defending the country, defending people, many of whom, in my opinion, don't deserve anyone fighting for them. PAT TILLMAN. He had the courage to fight for something he believed in and was willing to make a sacrifice. He is a real man. A tribute I found: ..
If you ask me questions in your email that can be answered by reading my profile, I probably won't respond because that means you just look at the pictures. Sorry, it is just so boring answering the same questions over and over again...If you don't feel like reading, I am not worth your time and move on...I'm not on here to hook up. Sorry to disappoint. If you contact me, I WILL READ EVERY WORD of your profile. If there is something distasteful, I will probably ignore you. I only want dignified and reputable friends.
The basics:
I'm a down home girl from KY, moved to Miami - Go Canes, then to Nashville, then to Chicago, then to OK, then to Vegas, came here for my job in 2005. I'm a Nashville girl. I played softball at Northwestern until my senior year when I was injured. While I was there I was 1st team All Big Ten for 3 years, 2000 Big Ten Player of the Year, and 1998 Big Ten Freshman of the Year if you care. After I graduated, I transferred my eligibility to Oklahoma State where I played my 6th year.
My favorite quote comes from Eleanor Roosevelt and reads: Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, small minds discuss people. I am never PC, sometimes people need to be offended. I believe the constitution should be used less as a shield for the guilty and more as a sword for the innocent victims.
My favorite prayer:
God grant me the SERENITY to accept the things I cannot change, the COURAGE to change the things I can, and the WISDOM to know the difference... In relationships, people should remember that in your whole life, only one is supposed to work. That means don't hold on to something that doesn't because there is something better out there. My advice is get good at letting go and work on yourself instead of a relationship that never will. It's a sign of strength and maturity, virtues that are far too uncommon.
The intangibles:
I am your typical pisces who likes her alone time, I'm essentially a loner. I overcompensate for that by being very social. I am an old soul. I am an "act like you've been there before" type person. I always hated playing with people who were surprised by winning. I was good but surrounded by a lot of mediocrity. Whether I was a baller or not, the only one who cared was me so I had to motivate myself. That worked out for me individually but the team never excelled which I hated and I also could have been a lot better if I had people to challenge me everyday. Now I surround myself with people who are better than me. If I don't get better, I fail and that's a good way to live. Scary, but good. I am sometimes quiet but never shy. I may be changed by what happens to me, but I refuse to be reduced by it. I try my best to deal with negative situations with as much elegance as possible, which many times means just walking away. I have become good at letting go. People change, you don't have much of a choice. Learning to pick your battles is very valuable. I know so many people who fight everything and it just not worth the effort. I try to find what God was trying to tell me through my mistakes and the bad things people do. For instance, I have believed a lot of lies but it's taught me to only trust myself. I think you should always look at the bright side which is typically the lesson you learned. And then there are those times when the bright side is so bright that you can't even see. That makes it all worth it. It is really hard to figure out why things happen the way they do sometimes especially when you try so hard to do the right thing by people. But life finds a way to answer you and strengthen you. Class is important to me. If I'm not proud to tell my dad about it, I don't do it. Usually I am strong, intelligent, confident, independent. Sometimes I am weak and need to be reassured. My greatest fear is never falling in love again. My greatest asset is my presence. I invest more money than I spend. I am mellow and wise, very demanding of people, intolerant of mediocre people and morals. I want to change the world. I am very protective of those I care about. I am sensible and also very distrusting but you would never know it. I don't feel the need to draw attention to myself, I don't prefer to be around people who need attention or who argue for the sake of arguing. I hate when people come up to me in a bar and tell me I look bored, only boring people are bored. I don't need entertainment. I am hard to figure out and definitely not patient. I am very laid back but never relaxed if that makes any sense. I like a few close friends rather than tons of acquaintances. I am passionate about good people; I passionately hate bad ones. I only speak when I have something substantial to say. I prefer silence and non-verbal communication. My dad always told me not to let my mouth overload my ass so you can be sure that when I talk, I believe in what I am saying. If I want you, you'll know it. I have said 'I love you' once...My favorite writing:
After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul and you learn that love doesn't mean leaning and company doesn't always mean security. And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises. You begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes ahead with the grace of an adult not the grief of a child. And you learn to build your roads on today because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans and futures have ways of falling down in mid-flight. After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much so you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers. And you learn that you really can endure, you really are strong, and you really do have worth. And you learn, and you learn. With every goodbye, you learn.....
Who I'd like to meet: T Boone Pickens. An all american bad ass.
You have a twin that lives in Southern Highlands. I just got back from Reno I rode 160 miles in Tahoe over 3 days it was a lot of fun. Hope everything is going well for you!
Yea I’m headed to Mexico in July and August for a few days. Plus I will try to get to Reno as much as possible. FYI I am almost positive I saw you at Smiths didn’t want to say anything just in case I was wrong.
Hi! I agree with Brandi - great profile pic - to awesome girls! lol! I have a friend coming into town on Thurs, with some of his friends, and I am taking them to the Yardhouse and then to Blue Martini. Brandi is going to come by after volleyball, it would be great to see you! I am not sure of the time yet (hopefully, I will know by Wed!). If you can make it, let me know! Hope your 2009 is off to a great start! =) ~ Donna
