Greatest achievement: During my last year at University, eight friends (all English majors) and I went on a 2-week trip to London, England. We worked real hard for 1 and a half year to fundraise enough money to pay for most of the trip. England, to us, was the land of our dreams, home to all our literary influences and mother of poetic imagination; therefore, we were amazed to find ourselves visiting such historical places as Jane Austen's city of Bath, Chaucer's Canterbury, Shakespeare's birthplace, Charles Dickens' home, Westminster Abbey where resides many famous poets' grave and memorabilia, and lots lots more literary sites...
My epitaph: "I'll never add on my list of friends the person who needlessly sets foot upon a worm" ~ unknown author

My worst quality: My impatience and sarcasm have gotten me in trouble more than once , especially on the Net where the tone of voice is unheard.
Worst quality i can't stand in other people: hyprocrisy
Greatest fantasy: making love in the center of mysterious Stonehenge (sometimes i surprise myself - i won't usually admit to things like that as i'm very discreet, but again i pride myself on being honest!)
If ever you feel you don't know enough about me (i think maybe you know far too much now!!!) and you have more interesting questions for me to answer, don't be afraid to ask me either by email or in my guestbook. If you do feel that you know more than you wanted to know, well, what can i say? ... DEAL WITH IT ;) In passing, PLEASE take the time to sign my guestbook... it's the least you can do after i've just opened my soul to you... ;o)
