As you may know, my name is Sara. Some possible nicknames of mine are: Sara Lee *Nobody does it like Sara Lee! hehe*, Grits Girl *Girls Raised In The South*, Red-headed step grandbaby *granpa's nick*, Little Love Sara *Riaz's nick*, and Lil One *Con's nick for me* Online I usually go by ClooneysGirl.
I am 21 years old. I wish that I was raised in the 70's instead of the 90's. I envy my mother so much! The 70's were her decade! She was born in 1960, so she was a teenager in the 70's! I wonder if there is a time machine to take me back into that decade. I'll get back to you on that.
I have one sister and one brother. Jennifer is 22, and Jonathan is 19. We live in a nice little home near the mountains in North Carolina. I have lived in NC all of my life. My dream place to visit is New York City. I think it would be so cool. I have been to New York three times, but never to the city. I also want to vist Italy and Ireland. I think they are beautiful countries. I would love to go scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef in Austraila. The most beautiful place I have visited is Niagara Falls. I fell in love with nature when I saw the Falls. It showed me how forceful and beautiful nature was. I love to travel. In 2000 I was lucky enough to take three trips. One was a cross country trip to Missouri to visit the Precious Moments Chapel. The second trip was just up to Saratoga Springs NY. The third trip was another cross country trip to Chicago. I hope to be able to take some trips this year as well. I want to visit California, Iowa, and Canada.
On May 25th, 2001 I graduated from Meadowbrook High School. It is an alternative school. This school is wonderful. The teachers and staff are excellant and do all they can to help you. I wasn't so sure that I would be able to graduate on time because my illness CFS slows me down too much. I would love to be a Emergency Medicine Doctor, but I might settle for an RN or pathologist instead. Pathology is an area of science that really intrigues me. I have always been into forsenics and toxicology. I hope to perharps be a corenor. A lot of people are grossed out by that idea. I think it is funny that they do. When people do that, I normally say that I am only going to do that so I can find ways to kill people without anyone being able to trace how they died! Truthfully, I would never, but the look on people's faces is priceless! In July of 2003 I got my medical transcription dipolma from FTCC. I am still planning on going back to college when my life settles down some.
I am a really nice person. I have a big heart and love helping people. I am a little sarcastic and have an otherwise pretty good personality. I do have high morals and expectations of myself though. My biggest fault is having a such a caring and trusting personlaity. I am of the Baptist faith, but I do need to try to be a better Christian.
I love everything to do with nature. I am really glad that I live here in North Carolina because of this. I am only three hours from all the beaches and an hour from the Blue Ridge Parkway, two hours from the Great Smoky Mountains, and only 5 mins from Hanging Rock State Park. I also live on A scienic hiway. Things couldn't be better here! The view out of the sun room is breathtaking. Pilot Mountain is georgous!
I like just about all kinds of music. My favorite artists are George Michael, Garth Brooks, Alanis Morissette, Trisha Yearwood, Will Smith, Fiona Apple, the Martins, Van Halen,the Hoppers, Bread, Elvis, and a bunch more. My favorite songs are: Father Figure, Fast Love, Freedom '90, The Night Will Only Know, The Dance, That Summer, Shameless, To Make You Fell My Love, Sympathetic Charater, Right Through You, Forgiven, Wake Up, That I Would Be Good, How Do I Live, The Song Remembers When, Walkaway Joe, Like We Didn't Have A Broken Heart, Men In Black, Criminal, The Child Is Gone, Go Tell, Heaven's Child, Grace, Right Now, Shoutin' Time In Heaven, Make It With You, Baby I'm-a Want You, Everything I Own, Aubrey, and Diary. I also have lots more. I am addicted to music. I listen to it all of the time. I sing...off key and very badly of course, but I still love to do it. Singing and listening to music is my escape from reality. I lose myself in the moment. I don't think about anything and nothing can bother me. Right now I am into Enquire Iglesias..Bailamos...what a sexy guy and song...hehe
Some of my favorite movies would have to be Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken, Gone With the Wind, Out Of Sight, One Fine Day, Poor Little Rich Girl, and many others. I am into comdies and dramas. Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken seems to be a parell to my life. In this movie this girl faces a long road of hardships. She is relentlessly made fun of and told she was no good. She goes and gets a job shoveling manure and learns how to jump on a horse. Well she becomes a Diving girl. She jumps on a horse on a platform and is famous. That was always her dream. Well one day the horse gets spooked and the dive is off. the way the water hit her eyes causes her to go blind. She uses her ambition to learn how to jump again. No one could tell she was blind! She even found her true love during this time. He stuck by her when she went blind. I can only hope that I can find someone like that in my life. I also hope I can overcome my illness and have all my dreams come true.
My favorite TV shows are ER, Law and Order, Dharma and Greg, Dawson's Creek, Spin City, and I like old reruns of Roseanne, Designing Women, Home Improvement, and the Simpsons. Of course you should be able to quess why ER is my favorite show. George is gone now! Can you believe it? I almost died...let me tell you. I was a wreck for a week! What was mean....no one was supportive to me exceopt my friend Jen. She even made those nifty graphics for me. I was so heartbroken! How could he to that to me? *sighs* Ahh well. Life will go on. At least some people are happy that I won't be lusting after him every week! *winks to those people*
I really like to chat online a whole lot. I chat in Yahoo, TalkCity, mIRC, and ICQ. I have a whole lot of fun. I frequent Jerry's Diner in Yahoo!. I am considered a Reg there. I have made some great friends in there. ConFuZ_ed is my favorite person to talk to in the diner. I also have a few more friends like Almost, Turok, OJIB, Softy, Angel, BeMyBud, Coy, Dea, Watchfuleyes, Malo, Dorian, Wildfire, jennysu, CTB, SSS, Trip, Hedo, elfin, Seger_girl, TallnMysterious, Oldsport, Hailstorm, Tat, Toy, Rebel, Mom, and Daveo. We are a close family. I feel like the people in the diner would never let me down and they would be there for me. Too bad that I am not online as much as I used to be though. I now only talk to Confuze_d from the old diner crowd. I have some new friends like Riaz, Tony, Tim, Heather, Jenn, Kenz, Cor and so forth that I chat with now. I have such fun! In TalkCity, I am in #hubpub, StumbleInn and New2TalkCity. My friends there are Hawkette1, LadyHawkette, Intern36, Blond_Bomb, BarTender, BigBurt, SuzzyQ, DeerDude, HellSpawn, Peachiy, and house-o-matches. In IRC I am in chatzone, the teen rooms, and cfs-2000. I haven't been doing much of any chatting lately, but I still think of you guys and miss you! Take care and drop me a line! (2/13/2004)
I also love to surf the net. My friends have some great pages. I like Con's page the best! I have to like it. My page suffered so much while I was working on that page. I basically did the whole thing! He wrote the text and uploaded a few pics himself. I even had to teach him how to do it! I am now helping so many others work on thier webpages. I have fallen behind on my website. I need to be working more on it. Just the fact that I am updating it now is amazing! WHoo hoo go me. I hope for a new layout soon.
I read alot. My favorite authors are Lurlene McDaniel, Elizabeth Lowell, and V C Andrews. My favorite books are Angels Watching Over Me, Lifted Up By Angels, and When Angels Close my Eyes by Lurlene McDaniel. I like the Dawn series by V C Andrews. I also like any true crime book. I would have to say that Elizabteh Lowell is my favorite author at the moment. She writes historical romances. I love those kinds of books! They also seem to be how I want my life to be. I haven't read a book yet that I didn't like, or that I could put down! One day I read an entire 430 page book! I was so ill at myself, but I just had to finish it! My favorite book would have to be Winter Fire. Untamed is the second favortie. The whole Only series is great! I am sure the new series about the Donovan Family will be great. Amber Beach is part of the series. It was the first book I read by her. It took me about 2 weeks to finish it. Now I am hooked on everything she writes. I can reread and reread her books and never get tired of them!
My favorite color is green. I have always been into that color. Even when I was a little girl, when you would tend to theink a girl's favorite colors were red, pink, and purple, I loved green. Blue has it benefits as well.
I collect many things. Keychains, white teddybears
, the 7 dwarfs

My fav keychain would have to be my green snake. I only like white teddybears with the exception of two. I have a brown Heart-to-Heart bear and a gray big bear. I have had the Heart-to-Heart bear for 18 years now. It sits on top of my bed...whenever the bed is made! I have around 25 bears. Three of them are huge Christmas bears. I like the little ones better. I have three Coke polar bears too. All the other ones are just too dang cute!
I have no idea why I like the Seven Dwarfs. 
Here are the names of them in the order that I like them: Happy, Grumpy, Doc, Dopey, Sleepy, Sneezy, then Bashful. I have the complete set of the beanie ones and the porclien ones with them playin music. I have four of the big plush dolls. I have two sets of pins and a few other odds and ends. Heck I even buy coloring books of 'em!
I have a little collection of Garf stuff. I have 5 ity bity figurines and a candle. Plus I have books, 2 year planners, and a clanders.
Boxers...this is a funnny story as to why I started to collect them. Back about 7 years ago they were the coolest thing to wear here...as shorts or under jeans with allot of holes. My cousin gave me a pair that had Fred Flinstone on them. I really liked them allot, so I started to collect ones with Mickey Mouse. Now I have some with just about anything you can imagine. My fav would have to be the silk one with th little hearts on them. Comming in at a close Scooby Doo's! Funky socks.....well I haven't a clue why I started liking them. I have some with Garf, Micky, Minnie, some for each holiday, plus some really funky colored ones.My favorite socks are my Grinch ones. They are the slipper kind. They are way cool. I wear them with my Grinch boxers. In Precious Moments, I have alot of stuff. It is a wide range. I have stationary, stickers, coloring books, 20 figurines, 1 collectable plate, keychains, a bell, and so on. I am totally weird aren't I?
Well that is all I can think of for now!
