I am an independent, educated, outgoing, caring and a no-nonsense woman. I care about people simply because they are people. I strive to be the best I can be and to encourage positive thinking among those around me. Life is what you make of it, thus you must strive to make it the best you can. It's about the attitude and the approach to life's problems, distractions, and pleasures. I love to discover and to try new things. I am cautious and optimistic about life and about finding that special someone. That being said, I am not about games or wasting time -- mines or anyone elses. Although I am not perfect, I try very hard to work in the interest of others everyday. I consider myself a strong, hardworking, modest, honest, forgiving and understanding woman with a great sense of humor! I am also down to earth. I love to dance, listen to music (especially live music), and play outdoors. I proudly possess old school values that are hard to find. I strive to always show respect for two main reasons: it is the right thing to do, and because I want to be respected in return.
