About Me
   Gosh! do I hate this part or what? :-)
I would like to think of myself as quite smart, easy-going (but not a push-over), delicate but also dangerously spunky, savvy and quite informed. I enjoy going sight-seeing (travelling), taking long walks, reading, dancing, meeting new people, meeting celebrities (I've met quite a few), singing and trying new things at least once. I hate people who are cynical, overbearing, resentful, controlling or sadistic! You've gotta live a little y'know?!

Interests
Hit us baby one more time! Like your Brit-Brit counterpart, you are flirty, feisty, and impossible not to notice. On top of your game, you've got the world on a string and aren't afraid to steal the spotlight (and a few hearts while you're at it)! Nothing gets you going quite like being at the center of everything, so it's no surprise you can make heads spin on demand. Whether you're wowing the paparazzi, infuriating the judges, or thrilling the crowds, you always manage to get people talking. Though you can bring yourself to take the backseat from time to time, at heart you're a superstar in-the-making — and that's certainly not toxic!

Favorite Quote
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God; your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
NELSON MANDELA, inaugural speech, 1994

Journal
We are all inventors, each sailing out on a voyage of discovery, guided each by a private chart, of which there is no duplicate. The world is all gates, all opportunities. Ralph Waldo Emerson
Seek the lofty by reading, hearing and seeing great work at some moment every day. Thornton Wilder The only way of finding the limits of the possible is by going beyond them into the impossible. Arthur C. Clarke We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit. Aristotle Work spares us from three evils: boredom, vice, and need. Voltaire Experience is the child of thought, and thought is the child of action. Benjamin Disraeli You cannot plough a field by turning it over in your mind. Author Unknown The best way out is always through. Robert Frost Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; but make it hot by striking. William B. Sprague Nothing will ever be attempted if all possible objections must first be overcome. Samuel Johnson Fortune favors the brave. Publius Terence He who hesitates is lost. Proverb Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising every time we fall. Confucius Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. Albert Einstein Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
We are still masters of our fate. We are still captains of our souls. Winston Churchill Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. Ralph Waldo Emerson For hope is but the dream of those that wake. Matthew Prior Constant dripping hollows out a stone. Lucretius Nothing contributes so much to tranquilize the mind as a steady purpose-- a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual eye. Mary Shelley
