*Me in a Nutshell

I  am a 20-something living in San Diego, CA.  I like to laugh, I am a bibliophile, I am impatient, I am intrigued by European history, I’m a sucker for an accent, I am a football fan, I speak my mind, I procrastinate, I want to experience and see the world, my voice carries, water relaxes me, I am scared of birds, tunnels and tornadoes, and I adore meeting new people and going to new places.

I’m learning Spanish, want to learn the piano, and will read almost anything…especially if it’s historical fiction or a travelogue. My happy place is anywhere with a body of water, a book, a bottle of wine, and a breeze.

I am trying to become the person I would like to be.

I love… red wine, new experiences, movies, traveling, chocolate chip cookies, art history, energy drinks, kisses, lazy days, music, cheese, unexpected good times, photography, all things Italian, pedicures,  PJ pants, rollercoasters, and keeping in touch with old friends.

I loathe judgmental people, I wish the electoral system would change, I have a fairly short attention span,  I think disappointment is one of the worst feelings, guns make me nervous, clutter stresses me out,  slow, confused drivers cause my road rage, I despise ignorance, onions are gross, I wish I had a housekeeper, I can’t stand the taste of beer, regret is one of my biggest fears, I’m irritated when people don’t RSVP or flake when they do,  I hate being ignored, I don’t like scary movies or sad endings, and I have mild OCD about random things like not watching a movie before I’ve read the book.
