I live for tomorrow. I'm all about living life one day at a time. I accept what life has to offer. I love my life, and I try to enjoy every moment. My mother is the most important person in the world. My mom is more awesome than yours. I would die for my family. I would die for my friends. I would die for literally any reason, maybe even no reason at all. I love hanging out. I love going out with my boys. I surround myself with wonderful people and truly enjoy the company of my friends. On weekends, I go out to the bars, but other times I'll stay home and watch a movie and have a glass of wine with my besties. I go to clubs and love to dance, but I don't mind snuggling on the couch catching up on 30 Rock. I am Liz Lemon personified. I'm Zooey Deschanel. I AM Audrey Hepburn. I'm a real Manic Pixie Dream Girl. I'm an INFJ; that's all you need to know.
I love to travel and see the sights. I love France. I love Germany. I love Brazil. I love Israel. I love England. I love Puerto Rico. I love Haiti. I love Mexico. I love debating politics and religion at the pub with the locals. I love watching the sun come up in a small African village, reminding us that God really is there for us every day. I love the bustle of people in a Kowloon market, going about their lives and needing each other to survive. I love the sound my blood makes when it hits the walls. I love the hoppy taste of a good IPA Ð keep the Nasty Lite for yourself, thank you very much.
I'm a spontaneous person. I will try anything new. I want to do everything. I want to see the world. I want to meet people from all walks of life, because every person you meet has something they can teach you. I want the earth to turn to ash and cinder and float through the galaxy, infecting every star it touches, burning out the universe. I want to take in as much as I can. I believe in living life to the fullest. At the end of the day, life is too short to not be laughing, having fun and appreciating others. At the end of the day, I want to know I made a difference. At the end of the day, I know I still have friends and family who would do anything for me and that's a lot more then some people have. At the end of the day, I thank God for everything I have. At the end of the day, I pray that this was the last.
I'm sarcastic, ADD, and random. I'm competitive, witty, and sophisticated. I'm free-spirited, sexy, and nerdy. I'm polyamorous, full-figured, and beautiful. I'm level-headed, passionate, and intelligent. I'm goal-oriented, driven, and successful. I'm freaky, flirtatious, and fun. I'm hot, cool, and better than you. I'm caring, motivated, and a great listener. I'm inquisitive, enthusiastic, and awesome. I'm holding a gun in my mouth. Watch me pull the trigger.
