About Me
Woot! I'm a lady who's getting down with her social self! Grew up being shy; got tired of it. Now, I just do me! If you like it, cool. If you don't, that's no problem either. I don't require your approval to live my life, and I hope you enjoy yours. Anyways, I enjoy the games of video-ness! I love books and writing, but don't partake in enough of either at this point in my life. If you'd like to know more, it should go without saying, but I'll say it anyway: just ask! I'm right here! Now I have to go find the stupid mosquito that's hiding in my room, eating my legs! XDBesides books, games and art, I enjoy movies, mainly fantasy and good horror; much of today's "scary" movies aren't scary at all and that's quite disappointing to me. Last good scary movie I watched that actually kept me up a few nights was the first Grudge movie, and only after the first time. The subsequent few occasions that I've watched it, it's been quite ridiculous. Buffy, oh how you sadden me by not roundhouse-kicking that ghost chick in the face. I long for a good scare!Music-wise, I listen to almost anything, though my favorites are definitely classic rock and *** throw some classical in there for a bit of culture). I like movie soundtracks such as Star Wars, LOTR, Pirates, and Star Trek. Big booming basses and cellos tickle my eardrums! Same with loud horn pieces.Also, I've recently discovered that I'm an avid fan of shooting things, mainly large rifles and bows! And I am eagerly awaiting the zombie apocalypse. Don't judge. You know you're going to want a bad-ass chick who's got your back when it comes, and that's me.Another new interest of mine is workouts. *Le gasp!* My favorite is the Insanity workout by Shaun T. It's the only one that hasn't bored me, and that I've stuck with. I have had trouble with going to the gym in the past and sticking with exercising, but I'm completely committed to this, especially since I paid for it myself. (Figured I might as well jump headfirst into the ice water) It's hard as Superman's cheatin' alien abs, but I love it! And I've definitely seen a change in my energy and stamina, not to mention I feel sexy! I've only been doing it a month, so I've got a long road ahead. However, I look forward to it.*Update ***:I was thinking about things, and so now I feel like I should elaborate on a few things about the kind of man that I'm searching for.1.) I am looking for a MAN, not a little boy. However, I do understand that to different people, that word could be defined different ways (besides being one of the male gender). So let me describe to you my definition of the word. -A man is strong (both physically and emotionally), intelligent, protective, respectful, confident, determined, motivated, and ambitious. Now, most of these words can pretty much stand on their own, but I do want to point out a couple of things. When I say strong, I don't mean that you have to have the body of an Olympian god (besides today's version of Dionysus as a fat drunk). But there are extremes on both ends that I can't deal with. There IS such a thing as too thin. If I think that I could toss you over my shoulder like a barbarian woman in a raid, then I just am NOT attracted to you. (I'd prefer it the other way around, lol) And of course, there's the opposite of too thin. I do feel without a physical attraction, it is near impossible to move on to the more emotional and intellectual attractions. If you don't like what you see, what is there to motivate you to make the move to get to know them better? I have experienced both sides of the coin; I have been passed on because I wasn't someone's view of attractive, and I've passed on others who don't fit into my view. It is a shame that this is how the dating world works, but it's always been this way, since the beginning of everything. I understand this, and I expect those of you who take the time to read this to understand it too. I am working on my physical self, but that's for me, not for you. I'd like others to see what I see when I view myself in my own mind's eye, and that's one sexy biscuit! -A man is intelligent. If our conversations are going to consist of nothing but three word sentences that cover the same boring topics all the damn time, I just can't do it. I do understand that the level of education completed CANNOT EVER be a trustworthy indication of one's own intelligence. I've only got my Associate's, and sometimes people think that that's what defines my personal intellect, but it's not. I'm constantly learning new things, usually through research that I stumble onto while doing other things. I listen. And I love absorbing new information. But because I didn't finish a four-year college (as of yet), some people tend to write me off as one who couldn't possibly understand the intricacies of their Bachelors in whatever. So I expect the same love of learning and attempts at actual, meaningful conversation in my prospective partner. -A man is protective. This should be clear all on it's own, so I'm going to pass on a whole paragraph about it. A man will protect and fight for what's his. -A man is respectful. I'm not asking for you to call me "my lady" or anything (although you could quite possibly get brownie points for it, if we're seriously dating). But I am asking you to respect me, as a person and as a woman. Above, I mentioned a man is strong and protective. This are both good traits that I view highly; however, sometimes they can become misconstrued. Meaning the man can become oppressive and even abusive. These are things I DO NOT TOLERATE. One who holds respect for me and others finds it difficult to become oppressive or abusive. Know this, if someone tries to hurt me or mine, I am not afraid to retaliate and fight back. My daddy raised this lady right! -A man is confident. I dated a guy once who's level of self-esteem and confidence was practically non-existent. I will not do that again. If I feel like I'm the one wearing the pants in the relationship, I'm out. I'd like to believe that I'm a mix of both modern and traditional. I believe the man should be the head of the household and the bread-winner. However, I also believe that the woman can contribute as well. But I've seen that if the man does not feel that he is the head, then he comes to resent the woman. I do not want that at all. Confidence is key.
