General
If it gets your heart pounding, count me in. I'm def. a fan of chill nights too of course (hello, spooning!). I will try almost anything at least once before judging it, so just ask (unless it's drugs or killing someone!)
I like to do things out of the ordinary (goin White Water Rafting soon, doin sky diving this summer, have been on crazy hiking trips, traveled to many great places, and there's still so much more to do.)
I also dig the generic stuff (bars, goin out to dinner with friends, movies, etc.) but also like board games, stuff outdoors (field hockey!), the beach (woo hoo only live 10 min. from one now), laser tag, mini golf, bowling, air hockey. There really is a TON of stuff to do in this world! And if you're bored, you shouldn't be (unless it's by choice) and it's ur own fault if u are, cuz u can do anything - maybe learn something new (it's called go online or to the library, and check out a book to learn how to knit, or do origami or cook or some crap. Knitting is cool...)
Music
THIS VID ROCKS (see lower right, OK GO)! I WANNA DO THAT!...
I listen to practically anything and everything (yes, even some country on occassion and sometimes Mozart or Beethoven (but let's not kid ourselves, his 5th symphony is better techno style!)
You Are Ashlee Simpson!
Stylish, unique, talented
You're your own woman!

Movies
I'm pretty big on movies of most types, but my faves are prob comedies or unique movies that are sometimes hard to place into a genre. Some that top the list are 50 First Dates, Tommy Boy, Requiem For A Dream, Mallrats, Dirty Work, Love Actually, Napoleon Dynamite, Shrek/Shrek2(Shrek 3 was ok), Miss Congeniality, Little Monsters, Adam Sandler Movies, Captain Ron, I am Sam, Manequin 2: On the Move, Riding in Cars with Boys, Old School, Office Space, Crash, Napoleon Dynamite, The Butterfly Effect, Saw 1, 2, & 3 (well 3 was a lil much), Amelie, Love & Basketball, Bend it Like Beckham, Serenity, The Ultimate Gift, and the list continues...
The Movie Of Your Life Is A Cult Classic
Quirky, offbeat, and even a little campy - your life appeals to a select few.
But if someone's obsessed with you, look out! Your fans are downright freaky.
Your best movie matches: Office Space, Showgirls, The Big Lebowski
I watch more tv now than I used to but am trying not to. I usually just flip between TLC (What Not to Wear i freakin love), the food channel (take home chef & the king of cakes show is fascinating), Fuse, MTV, and a few others. I'm def a fan of Family guy and the Simpsons are good of course, but I just see them here and there (the Stewie movie was GREAT!! WHAT THE DEUCE?!?!) hehe. oh i'm also sorta obsessed with the Discovery Health Channel, they show weird stuff sometimes that you can't help but watch. The Forensic Files on Court TV is good too! And I'm hooked on Gray's Anatomy through DVD.
Books
Augusten Burroughs and David Sedaris rock my world. Also, The Lovely Bones (Alice Sebold) was good and The Moe Chronicles: Tales of an Urban Failure (it's HiLaRiOuS!). The Notebook (Nicholas Sparks) was pretty good: part porn and tear-jerker all rolled into one, need I say more? For spirituality and if you're an open person/have loved ones who have passed away or getting older, I highly recommend "Life on the Other Side," by Sylvia Brown. That's it for now, I don't usually read for fun but sometimes it's not bad if you find the right book.
Heroes
Mostly my friends cuz they are what get me through the day and keep life interesting. My family (especially my sis and dogs) get hero credit cuz although we're not the cookie cutter type, we've had a lot of good times together. Steve, who has a great sense of humor, an insanely intelligent side mixed in with creativity/playfullness, is always there for me, inspires me, motivates me, the list goes on...and not to mention he's pretty damn cute too :)
I definitely want to get into the creative side of advertising but will do whatever it takes to get there! I just got a job in CT and am so excited! :)

Who would I like to meet? A handsome man that is smart, playful, interesting, patient, outgoing, sexy, strong, confident, makes me laugh, has layers (yea like Shrek), can cook a kickass huevos rancheros or lime chicken any day, and will do what I ask him to (most of the time) :) Oh wait, I've met him already...
STEVE! And, he is an Aquarius...I guess he gets brownie points just for being born on Jan. 26 (see below) :)
You Should Be With an Air Sign!
Your best match is a Gemini, Libra, or Aquarius
Why? You crave excitement and playful banter
Only an Air Sign can match your wit - and keep you on your toes
As for fun, an Air Sign guy will show you plenty? with tons of surprises
Just be sure to introduce him to some new playful experiences as well!
Curtis Stone, the hot cook from "Take Home Chef." I'd like to take HIM home and cook up a storm ifyaknowwhatimean ;p hehe
Men, you could learn a thing or two from him (the premise of the show is that he goes to the grocery store, asks a woman if he can go back to her house and cook for her that night (and whoever else lives there), buys the groceries, then cooks some amazing stuff and his food looks deeelish
Nick Lachey - no explanation needed. He has an incredible voice, and looks to kill obvi. Although him and Jessica Simpson were one of the cutest couples ever, the good news is that he's single now! I definitely wouldn't mind taking him up on his offer to "take what's left" of him ;p
Gerard Way - So he might look pale all the time and seem a little angry, but his music rocks and is perfect for blowin off some steam or singing to in the car, and we have the same birthday! (except for the 7 year age diff hehe)
Channing Tatum - Guys who can dance are HOTTT (and the muscles don't hurt either :)
Thanks for the birthday wishes hun! I am leaving for the beach in like 2 hours...I am sooooo excited haha. Hope all is well with you, haven't talked to ya in quite some time!
Sweeeet! My beach house is north of Brig's apartment but the only problem is I am not going down until Saturday morning. But maybe you could stop by on your way back to Connecticut, we'll talk about it :)
♥ "A woman has strengths that amaze me, she can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens, she holds happiness, love and opinions. She smiles when she feels like screaming. She sings when she feels like crying. Cries when she's happy, and laughs when she's afraid, her love is unconditional, there's only one thing wrong with her and that is that sometimes she forgets what she is worth." ♥

Hey Mel! I haven't been able to make it to any games yet, but I will be there for Ohio State for sure... don't have a ticket but I'm fine with going for the tailgating scene and then watching the game in a bar haha. And I'm also going to the away game in Temple that is in the Eagles stadium :)
Melody, thank you for the birthday wish. I remember last year's birthday, it was great, even though I did not attend the Oyster Festival. I think I am going this Saturday night.
