I am an advocate of having a simple life. I like exercise and I like to party it up with friends. I don't like having a job, but money is nice, and school can be pretty awesome, syke! I read and watch TV a lot, listen to jam bands and some jazz and classical, but most of the time I just chill and plan my hostile takeover of America. I really like philosophy and history, and I was always good at English. - Eileen
Your Hidden Talent. - Scott Davidson
I love everything about women. I enjoy hanging out with them, talking, playing, shopping, whatever. Never had a sister, always wanted one; I just really have fun with women. It's not about sex, it's just about the spirit...the connection....the differences; its fun. My personal interests are pretty simple: I enjoy doing things...I'm not the type who likes to sit around and do nothing; not a couch potato. - Kathryn Kocik
Now what would you really like to know? ;-) I'm awesome...enough said! - Aaron
Providence! And Victorian novels! What excitement and exclamation marks! If you don't believe me, just ask the neighbors. It's one more year and the MA is mine. Who knows where it'll be next, eh? - Frances Maule
Grew up in Philly. Spent summers as a kid and teen in England. (mum's a Brit) Also lived in England for 6mos in my early 20s...trying to "find myself". I got my act together by my mid 20s, went to college at night. Now I'm a graphic designer at a non-profit. Recently bought a house (still needs work). Life is good. ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: I like to take pictures. - Kristin Emrick

Heinous bitch. Ticklish. - Kelley
I like to stand on soap boxes and then fall on my ass. I ponder the meaning of life. I laugh at myself and then cry with a friend. I like to sleep in and to stay up late. But I wake up early to go to work and then support my husband's band habbit late at night. I love my girl Sadie. By the way... Did you get that "thing" that I sent you? - Danielle
Hey! I'm Danielle and this is my Myspace! Anyone who's going to be viewing this probably already knows me, so I'll keep it brief. I just want to hear from everybody and see what they're up to, especially everyone from school(both SPHS and MSM)! So, drop on in and say Hi! - Megan Myers
OK I realized I needed to update this s**t and so here is a super-sweet slide show:. - Allegra
EAT IT! - Eliot
Just to get it out of the way... yes, I am wearing an eye patch. I am missing an eye. It's not a fashion statement. - Julia
Quand j'aime un truc, a me prend au tripes. Je me tape de vrai trip rien qu'en y pensant. Et si quelqu'un ose degrader devant moi ce qui me plait, c'est simple : je l'etripe!!! C'est juste une histoire de visceres, sauf que ca ne pourrira jamais, puisque c'est mon essence. - Rob
Some of my music is. - Dennis
Once upon a time there was a young lad named Dennis. He was born and raised in the deep south. And by "born and raised", I mean he moved there from New Jersey. And by "the deep south", I mean the suburban Atlanta area, which is more like an urban oasis in the middle of a desert (or dessert, if you prefer, oasis is my favorite dessert topping). - Dani Thompson

What can I say? If you know me personally, you know all there is to know. I work a lot and really try to be the best that I can be. I take my job very seriously despite the constant compromises and headaches, but I guess that comes with the position. A few years ago, I took life for granted, now I realize just how important it is. One thing I have learned, enjoy what's going on now, for you never know what could happen tomorrow. - Anaely
Im not good describing myself but I would like to tell that Im cuban, have been in the united states for two and a half years now, and I love it here, I have met really good friends, and I have had great moments with them. I love to go to the beach, Im a very spiritual person and there I can relax, and think, and just enjoy the sun. If you wanna know more about me, just ask ;-) love ya all. - Jessica
My name is Jessica (a.k.a JeSi B). I'm a student at Roane State about to transfer to Tennessee Tech and I'm majoring in Elementary Education. I teach little kids at my church daycare, which I love. It's a great job because I love working with children and it is the most rewarding job. - Ashley
My name is Ashley. Most people call me Lee or Lou Dawg. I'm a registered nurse in the neonatal intensive care unit at HealthPark. I love my job and the babies I take care of! I have the coolest friends in the world. We can get a little crazy sometimes...ok, ALOT crazy. But we always have fun. Over the past few years my life has changed immensely. Now I try to have a good outlook on life and just live everyday as it comes. - Kathryn Gadd
Which Early 19th Century Literary Heroine Are You? - Mau
Myself? I think I am not the one supposed to describe myself. I'd rather have somebody else do it for me. As a matter of fact, you should ask any of my friends. What I must say is, I can be the nicest and most endearing guy ever or the worst pain in the ass. That depends a lot on how much you are able to understand my inner world and my feelings. Sometimes I am strong and sometimes very emotional. I laugh and cry, just like everybody else. - Agnieszka Nowak
made with the Cosmoedit. - Liz
I am a wife to Cabby, a Mommy to Jack, a Food Network chef (thank you Andrea), a scrapbook fiend, a crazy dancer, a fierce friend, a sister, a Jesus Freak, a teacher, a Diamontologist (no, really, I am!) and Gemologist, a Maryland Grad (go Terps!), a free spirit, an artist, a reader of poetry, (and occasional writer),a lover of all things Pooh Bear, a devoted family member, and a jokester. Hmmmm, that just about sums it up, I suppose. - Megan
Well....I am now a full-time student at the University of Houston. It's kind of weird not having a career anymore, but I'm lovin' it. My major is Human Development and Family Studies, and I could not have picked something better. I am loving what I am studying for the first time in my 15th year of school. I never thought that I could enjoy school. Moral: PICK SOMETHING THAT YOU LIKE AND THAT YOU WILL ENJOY. - Rufus
Hmmm... I live in Hamilton, Ontario (Canada) with my wife Claire. I was born and raised outside of Washington DC though, so everyone I meet in Canada asks me if I saw that stupid Columbine movie. I am in the PhD program at SUNY Buffalo. I study French, Latin, and Spanish, and am uniformly mediocre at all of them. I wrote two unpublished novels and made almost no effort to get them published. Working on a third now. Really can't think of anything else.
