RADNOMNESS:
I absolutely HATE Macs. Yep. I SAID IT. Total Windows whore over here.
I’m still hugely into all-star cheer. Had to quit in `04 due to a back injury, but I’m recovered and hope to get back on a collegiate all-star team soon.
I’m hetero/straight, but I strongly support gay marriage and the gay, lesbian, and bisexual communites.
I took 2 years of Drafting (pre-architecture in high school) and was the only girl in the class. …And one of the few students who held a solid A the whole time.
I don’t support abortion, but instead, support adoption.
I’m not religious, but I do have and believe in faith.
Non-smoker. Pro-lung and cardiovascular health.
I have endless acquantances and contacts but a VERY small group of people who I actually deem “friends”.
I’m a neat-freak and organization nut.
I’m not a big drinker. I hate beer, but do enjoy the occasional mixed/fruity/tropical drink and a good Californian or Italian wine.
I get told I look intimidating quite often, which I find funny because I’m only 5 feet tall. I’m honestly very friendly — PROMISE!
I’m a HUGE NASA nerd. I can’t remember having ever missed any sort of spacecraft launch since I was in 4th or 5th grade.
After I graduate from college, I’m thinking about continuing my education to pursue a degree in some area related to aerospace studies.
I’m pretty much glued to my BlackBerry and iPod Touch 24/7.
I became a property owner at 18.
I owned 3 properties and pieces of land by age 20.
I’m an only child and I love it.
My Mom and I have an amazing relationship and are extremely close, and she’s my very best friend.
I’m a very fun, kind, and down-to-earth person, but I’m also very assertive. I don’t put up with anyone’s crap and I won’t hesitate to put someone in their place if needed. …Which is rare.
I’m very responsible.
I have a good work ethic and take both school and work very seriously, no matter how big or small the task
I do a lot of cat-sitting for neighbors and family friends whenever they’re out of town. I love it.I’ve been to 3 tapings of Will & Grace, and also attended all 3 rehersals for the show’s very first live episode.I’ve seen George Carlin perform live, twice.I love being short/petite. I suppose it’s a good thing I never had the desire to be a runway model. Heh.
I like swarovski crystals and sparkley things. A lot.
I’m a perfectionist. I can’t stand the slightest failure, but I’m working on it. It’s a part of life.
I hate gold. Every single piece of jewelery I own is either silver or white gold.
The only place overseas that I’ve ever had the desire to travel to is Italy.
I love all species of cats, but my ultimate favorite is the Snow Leopard. They’re insanely beautiful.
I’ve never broken a bone, but have sprained my right knee, both ankles, right wrist, landed on neck on a trampoline, and tore my L5-S1 disc in my back. I’m hard, bitches.
I’ve had 3 epidurals for a disc problem in my back, none of them were effective what-so-ever, and my told I’d be a candidate for a spinal fusion surgery, but eventually it healed on its own (which took about 2 years).
I’m very positive and optimistic.
I LOVE rain, thunderstorms, and cloudy days.
I absolutely love my life and try to make every day productive, fun, and meaningful.
