I love being outside. I'm up for just about anything under the sun, as long as I remembered my sun block. ;) I love to go hiking, camping, fishing, play sports (even though I'm not very good at most of them), swimming. Have you ever been chased by a beaver? I have and if you're lucky, I'll tell you the story. I live and breath music. Pretty much anything rock, clic rock, clical, punk, techno, even some country is cool with me. I'm not a big rap fan but there are some exceptions. I really enjoy getting to know the local music scene where ever I'm living at the moment. I have moved a lot, cross country 4 times in 5 years. I guess that's why I have trouble meeting new people. School and knowledge are very important to me. I try to learn something new everyday. There is NO reason an old dog CAN'T learn new tricks. I'm working on getting my degree in nursing. I want to specialize in oncology. Family is VERY important to me. I come from a large extended family and we're all really close. I've recently become an auntie and I'm loving spoiling my little niece! I don't like to watch sports on tv but I adore going to games. Hockey is my all-time favorite sport. I've fallen for the Penguins. I like the Seattle Seahawks for football, and the Seattle Mariners for baseball. I used to like the Seattle SuperSonics but now I don't have a favorite NBA team. I'm slightly geeky and LOVE certain SciFi network programs. Including, but not limited to, Stargate SG1 and Stargate Atlantis, The Outer Limits, and old reruns of The Twilite Zone. I'm not religious but that doesn't mean I don't have ms or values. I have a spiritual side. I'm not a fan of organized religion and believe that everyone should be able to practice their own believes in a way that suits them not by what others say they should, as long as that way doesn't hurt anyone. I'm very tolerant and forgiving. I like to take care of the ones I love. It makes me happy to make others happy.
