I love any and all things 80s. I love my friends, spending time with my family when we can all get together. I like coffee, butterflies, pinup girls or that whole culture in general, people watching, music, Disneyland, vodka, going out to breakfast, staying in and making dinner, renting movies, horror movies, Coke Zero, Vegas, humor, ice cream, making people laugh, laughing at myself, makeup, doing my hair, perfume, buy one get one free, cooking, baking, a day without bills, accidental accents, people stumbling on their words, sleeping in, scented candles, diet cherry coke, mary janes, no regrets and moving on, independence, photos, doing my nails, concerts, imdb, knowing that one day it will all make sense. Some non-interests: I don't like cats, people who are PC and/or easily offended, Starbucks, etc.
Music

I hate people that say "TV is a waste of time, blah blah blah." So is bitching about it. It's relaxing and I love comedy.
Books
Most books I read are school related and are a little boring. "The Godfather" is one of my favorite non-school books.
About me: I recently graduated from college (CSUN) with a Bachelor's degree in Child and Adolescent Development. I hope to become a kindergarten teacher but am still looking around at other career options. In the meantime, I am a server at a restaurant. It's a sucky job but it's only temporary. I'm a passionate, opinionated, and all around sassy girl. I have a pretty cool family that I love very much and I have some pretty amazing friends. I love music, movies, I'm a total trivia nerd, I like the occasional drink at the semi-local dive bar, going out, and staying in and renting bad movies. I love dancing to 80s. I'm not good at it but it's not about that. It's so much damn fun. I like people with a quick wit and those who have an appreciation for it in others. There's nothing like laughing until you can't breathe. I like the mornings but am not a morning person. It's usually best to avoid me until I've had some coffee. I think most people out there need to wake the hell up in life. It's passing by quickly. It's hard not to dwell on the past sometimes but it will tear you up if you let it. There's a price to pay in life no matter which path you decide to take. But there are also so many amazing things that make it so worthwhile. You have to do what you love.
If you were on FB this would have been so much easier (hint, hint ). Here is a copy of the invite I made. And, if you were wondering, that photo is not a doctored photo of me. That is what I look like when I wake up in the morning.
I understand from several unnamed sources that you have a grudge against me. You've said I am "stupid" and "lame". I take offense to these comments. I will forgive you, however, if you pay me a visit and create a profile through my service. Otherwise, I will deem it necessary to instruct my legions (mostly Michelle and Meri) to stalk and haraass you until you have a change of fart. I mean heart. Please reconsider.
