writing, reading, dancing (just for fun though), listening to music (all kinds), watching movies, walking, researching, spending time with my pets, being with friends, drawing, joking, playing practical jokes on people, etc.

too many to list, but I tend to like comedies, romantic comedies, drama, old movies, etc...I'm not really into science fiction though. I love so many movies, but can't think of them off the top of my head though...so I'll just add them as I think of them. They're not in any particular order.

Gone With the Wind, Moonwalker, Blades of Glory (ridiculous and obnoxious humor), Forrest Gump, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, Pirates of the Caribbean (all of them), Free Willy, October Sky, Smoky Mountain Christmas, Red Mask of Death, Rush Hour (only saw the first one so far), Hitch, In the Pursuit of Happiness, Just Married, Meet the Parents, Washington Square, The Last Samuri, Straight Talk, The Ring, The Ring 2, Blow, Ratatioulle, Spirit, Ghost, Michael, Look Who's Talking, Look Who's Talking Two, Look Who's Talking Now, Beaches, Stepmom, American Pie, Pretty Woman, Selena, House of Flying Daggers, Desperado, The Black Stallion, Castaway, Apollo 13, Fly Away Home, Terminal, Click, Billy Madison, The Wedding Singer, Gone in 60 Seconds,...more to come

My first and foremost absolute FAVORITE is Michael Jackson, and always will be. Other than that, judging by the rest of the music I listen to, you'd be surprised that I love Michael Jackson so much, lol...but there's only ONE true King of Pop, one person that's good in that whole genre of music, and that's Michael. My taste in music is pretty diverse...I can listen to everything from Beethoven, to country, to pop, to heavy metal, to some rap (latter is not my fav. though). Others I listen to are: Lynyrd Skynyrd, Aerosmith, Guns N' Roses, Bret Michaels, Dolly Parton, Josh Turner, Bon Jovi, Kid Rock...whatever is on my play list on my profile, lol...all of that music will be in my wedding, lol..except for Kid Rock because of his lyrics (curses too much)...some wedding it will be. I also love to listen to piano music as well as classical.

I read soooo much, it's impossible to list all of the good books here. I've just finished reading Aphrodite Jones' "Michael Jackson Conspiracy," and I thought it was really good...definitely recommend it!

music, driving, dancing, honesty, trustworthiness, loyalty, empathy, love, acceptance, tolerance, respect, learning, sense of humor, playing practical jokes on people, etc.

liars, no sense of humor, cheaters, back stabbers, people that betray, racists, hate, people that pretend they're dumb, etc.

Personality

I am a person that has my own individual style. I like to dress up in skirts and dresses, but I also have no problem wearing jeans, pants, or whatever. I don't define myself as preppy, gothic, punk, etc., and I don't judge others for the clothes they wear either. . .it's what's inside that counts. My personality traits can be best described as: very easy going, loving, eloquent, caring, driven, considerate, creative, relaxed, understanding,loyal, peaceful, humorous, respectful, fun, empathetic, kind, talented, happy, honest, religious, friendly, compassionate, intelligent, hard working, observant, trusting, accepting, and warm-hearted person, etc. :) I can also be described as realistic and a dreamer as well...I'm a person that "makes" my dreams come true through hard work. I believe that in order to achieve it, you must dream it first...most of the amazing things that have happened, been invented, etc. were first a dream, which was then put into reality.

I love to have fun, joke around, laugh a lot, play pranks, be goofy at times, but I also know when and how to be serious. I know how to listen to others, and am always there for others when they need someone to talk to, and at the same time I do not judge them. . .I am very open, accepting, and understanding. I am a religious person, but I'm not a fanatic...I have a healthy balance. It is because of that I choose not to drink (to get drunk...maybe 2 drinks a week every once in a LONG LONG while, lol), do drugs, no clubbing, etc...I live a very moral and virtuous life (don't lie, steal, cheat, judge others, no jealousy, show mercy, try to remain peaceful, try to always forgive others, etc.). I still know how to let loose and have fun, dance, etc...I just don't put myself in compromising situations.

I love animals, and I have three parakeets, and a beta-fish named Tokyo. I've had cats, dogs, fish, frogs, toads, turtles, etc. in the past. In the future I would like dog or two (golden retriever, goldendoodle,german shepherd, collie, border collie, sheltie, greyhound, st. bernard, doberman pincher, great dane, etc...not all at the same time, lol)! I would also like to have a couple of horses, and maybe a cat in the future, but time will tell when or if the horses become a reality, lol!

Education and Plans for the Future

I study psychology and I would like to of course practice in that field when I get my degree. I graduate with my Bachelor's degree in May of 2008, and from there I will enroll in the doctorate's program to earn my Doctorate's degree (I'll studying for my master's and doctorates simultaneously) in Neuropsychology and Health psychology. After that, I would like to start my own practice and use animal assisted therapy as part of it if it's able to be applied to neuropsychology. The main thing I want to do with my life is to help others. I'm a straight A student, and yes, I take pride in my grades. I know that grades won't alone make me a great psychologist (mostly experience does), but grades serve as a great motivating factor, and graduating with some kind of honor is always nice to put on the resume, and they also get you into honor societies within the field you are studying.

I believe very much in education,and each person should go as far as they can with their education, but I understand that not everyone has the privilege to go as far as they want to, or have the chance to go to college (expensive, etc.), so again, I am open and do not judge. Waitresses, plumbers, electricians, trashmen, mailmen, bus drivers, cashiers, etc. are just as important as doctors, lawyers, scientists, etc. . .the world wouldn't be able to function without them either. A rich, well educated person with a huge house, and all of the material possessions he or she desires is worth no more than a poor person who doesn't have everything a rich person does, including opportunities. In the end, we all answer to the same One. I'm not saying that it's bad to be rich, it's just important that the person remembers what is most important in life. The most important thing in life is loving others, accepting others, not judging others, helping others, being empathetic, caring, peaceful, people, feelings, forgiveness, life in general, honesty, loyalty, faith, hope, etc...the rest is only extra.

Misc.

I believe you can tell a lot about a person by how they treat an animal. . .if someone can treat an animal that only wants to love and be loved badly, imagine what they can do to a person. Some sayings I live by are: Treat other's how you want to be treated; what goes around comes around (no, I'm not saying that I'm revengeful...basically, Karma's a bitch); put yourself in the other person's shoes; the world would be a boring place if we were all the same; always forgive others, don't judge, and be a peaceful person, etc. I'm not saying to let people walk all over each other. There are times people need to be assertive and stand up for theirself, but really look at the situation first to see if it's something worth making a huge fuss over...too many people jump and act too quickly for such small things.
