New
1- Name Jennifer, but everyone calls me Jenni (Jenny)
2- Age 24
3- Location Boston (BAAAAAAAAAAAHSTAHN), MA
4- Are you in a relationship? If so, post a picture. Best friends and occasionally romantic with this guy, but it's fun and not long term:
5- How did you find allpersonality? One of the promo communities that are on my flist because I try to pimp my own community, female_fans, on the promo community as well.
6- If accepted, will you be active? Yes, definitely! Communities are fun ways to get to know more people on Live Journal and they make work go by!
7- Tell us about you in a paragraph or more.
I'm a tomboy stuck inside a girly-girl's body. I love watching and playing baseball,going fishing, drinking beer and playing video games, but I can always be up for a spa day and a shopping trip. I have a sarcastic, witty sense of humor that keeps my friends and co-workers laughing at some pretty bleak times. I don't take myself seriously and that's why I think I have fun in life. I'm also a nurse and while I love my job and my patients, there are definitely things to laugh about in healthcare. Laughter is healthy, having an attitude is not.
8- List some music you enjoy listening to.
In no particular order: Death Cab For Cutie, Dave Matthews Band, Jack Johnson, Atmosphere, Fall Out Boy, Rihanna, Mary J. Blige and Shakira. That's what's currently been getting heavy play in my car's cd player.
9- List some movies you enjoy watching.
Clueless, Napolean Dynamite, Major League, Airplane, History of the World Part I, The Notebook, Grease, Whatever Happened to Baby Jane (really old, but really good) and Say Anything.
10- List some books you enjoy reading.
THe Diary of Anne Frank, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Harry Potter, Little Altars Everywhere, And the Band Played On, 11 Seconds and The Things They Carried.
(I'm a pretty big reader)
11- State your opinion on the following topics:
Abortion
I am for abortion because every woman should have the right to choose, especially since the costs of raising a child are rising and sometimes it's just not the right time for a child. I am against those that use abortion as a form of birth control, ie: Those that have had 2+ abortions when a condom would work best.
Anorexia
I don't like anorexia. It's a sad disease and it's horrible to work with. It can absolutely kill all of the body systems and I wish all girls would realize that they're beautiful no matter what.
Gay Marriage
I'm for gay marriage. If two people are happy and in love and want to make that comittment, let them. Love is not bound to just male-female.
Premartial Sex
Waiting until marriage isn't really realistic any longer. College campuses are sexual playgrounds. If you're safe, know your partner and your body then relax and have fun and find out what feels good.
Drugs
As an ER and ICU nurse, I've detoxed several patients who were drug abusers. It's disgusting and it's sad that people are weak enough to let drugs take over their lives and pretty muhc bring them to death's door before they realize that "gee, I might have a problem!"
Alcohol
I drink. I drank underage. Alcohol, like voting, porn and fighting for this country, should be made availible at 18 and kids should be taught to drink more responsibly. If it was availible at an earlier age, like 18, we wouldn't see so many underage drinking accidents.
Straight Edge
If you're for a lifestlye of no sex, drugs or drinking and make it about the music or "scene" (from what I understand, no one my age is really straight edge), then have fun and more power to you.
Religion
I'm not religious and to me it's a personal choice. If you have strong beliefs like that, you definitely have my awe and respect. When you force them upon others, we have a problem.
12- What do you do in your spare time?
Shop. Catch Baseball games at Fenway Park (diehard Red Sox fan). Play softball on an intramural team. Read. Go to the gym. Travel to Maine and Cape Cod in the summer and to Hawaii during the winter. Go to the bars and clubs in Boston. And in addition to that, I'm also going back to school to become a high school math and science teacher and become a Flight Nurse. And of course, I LJ.
13- Do you have any pets? If so, post some pictures.
My cat Pete:
14- What's your favorite color? Pink!
15- What stores do you shop at?
Victoria's Secret, GAP, J.Crew, Banana Republic, Old Navy, Nordstroms, Neimen Marcus
16- What's your favorite food?
I can live on pizza with fresh tomato, sauce and cheese.
17- What's one thing in this world you want to change?
If everyone was a little less self-centered and a little more nicer to everyone else, we'd have a more tolerable world. But when that happens, hell will freeze over.
18- Is there anything you want to change about yourself?
I wish I was less harsh on myself when I make a mistake. It's not the end of the world and no one is perfect, but I get wicked harsh on myself.
19- What's your favorite trait about yourself?
I love that I'm really outgoing and can make people feel at ease. It definitely helps as a nurse.
20- Try to make us laugh by telling us a joke and/or showing us a picture.
Pimp my short bus, yo.
21- Do you have any siblings?
Yes. I have two younger twin brothers who are 21 years old.
22- Can you dance?
Yes! I was on the dance team in high school and college and I love dancing at clubs.
23- Anything else you want to say?
No, I think I've said it all but I think that I have personality just oozing from my pores. Or it's just sweat from 12 hours of work. Either way, I need a shower.
24- Post pictures if you want, you don't have to.
Apparently, I like the brownie.
Smile like you mean it...
My hips don't lie...and no one ever looks good when they have their picture taken while dancing.
