About Me
I'm crazy, beautiful, and amazing...
I love to dance. I could eat a box of fruit roll-ups in one sitting. I love Reese's peanut butter cups. I can't cook. I love the sunshine! I dance around my apartment with the curtains open. I love big strong guys with tattoos (like my husband). I flirt with everybody, I don't mean anything by it, I just want the whole world to love me. I enjoy being called a bitch - maybe a little too much! - but I try to be nice to everyone who deserves it. I believe in fate, that there are signs all around us telling us what to do. I'm an Aries. I'm misunderstood. Sometimes I'm really headstrong, other times I'm too withdrawn. I have the bestest friends in the whole world. I'm naturally skinny so please don't ask me if I'm anorexic. I have two daughters, I got married in Vegas. I love steak. And chicken wraps from McDonalds. I hate the way Axe smells, I think it smells like K-Mart. I like guys to smell classy. And I always smell good. Way good, for serious. I love my hair. I love my eyes. I love my butt and my abs and my legs are pretty great too. I love me! I'm totally a city girl, I could never leave the Chi! Jeeeez I could go on for hours but I guess you'll just have to get to know me to find out more..
I believe in...
Fate. I believe there is a higher power that shows us the way. I've made life-altering decisions based on what song is on the radio. I believe in soulmates, not just someone you marry but your friends can be soulmates too. I believe in living for today, tomorrow may never come. I believe in following your heart. I believe we all have something to give and a desire to so it.
I'm all about...
My friends, family, and friends who became family ... music ... helping others.
My friends and I recently started a non-profit organization called Wonderland Productions. We plan events and fundraisers with all proceeds going to charity. We've all participated in model auctions for charity. Currently we are sponsoring the Huskie Healing event in DeKalb, and in June we will be hosting a swimsuit competition as part of the Twisted Wish Summer Sizzle.
If you'd like more information about these events or the group, or would like to know how you can get involved (we would LOVE your help!), visit our MySpace at : www.myspace.com/wonderland...
I live for...
Fun! I live for the nights I get to go out with my friends and forget my *real* life. I live for my kids' firsts. I live for helping those less fortunate.
Music
Ohhh a little bit of everything. Mostly rap/hip hop and dance, a little alternative. Very little country. Eminem was my "first husband." I love Sean Paul, T-Pain, Snoop Dogg, Pharrell. Anything I can dance to.
Movies
Anything scary or funny. The Wizard of Oz, Finding Nemo, Grandma's Boy, Super Troopers, Old School, Fight Club, Snatch, The Ring still scares the crap out of me.
TV
The Simpsons, ER, The Sopranos (worst ending EVER), Heroes, Reno 911, My Name is Earl
Books
Yeah I don't have time to read. Child development books. That's about it.
Likes
Sunshine, music and dancing, nightclubs, drinking, my friends. Steak, caffeine, granola bars and fruit roll ups. Tattoos and fast cars. Shopping and tanning. People who are independent.
Dislikes
People who think they know everything. People that drive like idiots. Pickles, mustard, onions, green peppers, salt. Desperation. Neediness.
I will officially be working alongside Johnny Depp for 12 or more hours on 2 or more separate days....
I will be so close to him I can lick him..
and I just might do that...
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I'm excited. I know you all think I'm a window licker right now, but this is what I live for. I've wanted to be an actress since I was a kid! I am aware that I am "just" an extra. But I don't care! Just to get the experience of working on such a huge movie is phenomenal. I'm going freaking nuts here. It's 3:30 in the morning and I still can't sleep.
So just be happy for me.
:D
And btw the movie is called Public Enemies. It's about the 1930's mobster John Dillinger. Directed by Chicago-born Michael Mann (Starsky & Hutch, The Aviator, Last of the Mohicans, Ali), starring Johnny Depp & Christian Bale.
I just got a phone call from the casting director of the new Johnny Depp movie (please don't ask me the name because I'm just too damn excited to remember!), and tomorrow I'm going to a meet & greet to be an extra!
O - M - G !! Seriously! I'm so freaking excited, you probably think I'm retarded. Well, screw you, I'm gonna meet Johnny and you're not. :P

Dear Friends and Family,
Every hour another person is diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. For 20,000 people in Illinois and some 400,000 nationwide, that hour has already arrived. Each case of multiple sclerosis, a chronic and often disabling disease, is as unique as the people who have it. My best friend is one of those affected by MS.
It's not easy to pinpoint the cause of multiple sclerosis and so far, the cure rests on continued research. On Sunday, May 4th, I am raising money so the Greater Illinois Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Societycan continue to provide assistance to those affected and fund major research.
The Greater Illinois Chapter utilizes approximately 88% of every dollar raised to fund programs that actively help people with multiple sclerosis and their families, public and professional education and research. A portion of your donation will help fund more than 350 multiple sclerosis research projects.
Please consider making a tax-deductible donation on my behalf to help me reach my fundraising goal. It's faster and easier than ever to support the fight against multiple sclerosis: online donations can be made simply by clicking on the link at the bottom of this message. You can also send a donation made payable to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society to me, or print the make a donation form and mail it to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Every dollar makes a difference in leading the fight against multiple sclerosis.
Check out my personal page to learn why I'm walking. You can check my progress, see your personal thank you (if you made a donation), sign up to walk with us, get some creative fundraising ideas, and more!
I truly appreciate your support and will keep you posted on my progress!
Wonderland Productions, Inc. is the result of three
friends and their big ideas of ways to help in the world. The members
of Wonderland Productions, Inc., Sheila, Amy, and Britany, were
involved in many events in 2007 to help various causes, but it was not
until the night of the Spook Show hosted by our good friend Willy at
Twisted Wish Productions were they dressed as characters from Alice in
Wonderland that the idea began to develop. After participating in yet
another fun and gratifying event, Amy and Sheila got it into their
heads that they should follow suit and started putting together events
for charities. They told Britany about it and she was excited! Since
then, they have started a group and page on myspace (www.myspace.com/wonderlandproductionsinc)
and have come up with about a million ideas of ways to help. They have
also begun working closely with Twisted Wish Productions on various
projects. From this - Wonderland Productions, Inc. was born!
This newsletter has been created to (1) introduce our organization and
(2) to let you know what we are up to and how you can help. This is the
first of many newsletters that we will be sending out to our family and
friends about every month, so be on the look out for the News in
Wonderland.
A Little About The Wonderland Trio
Sheila (aka Alice) is a
24-year-old pre-med student and medical transcriptionist. She hopes to
one day go into medical research to help people that are afflicted with
autoimmune diseases and/or chronic pain syndromes. Sheila has had her
fair share of medical problems. At 21, she was diagnosed with bipolar
disorder and knows how a mental illness cripples a person and the
people close to them. As if that were not enough, in 2006, she starting
having pain in her left shoulder which, to this day, has yet to stop.
In the process of trying to find the cause of the pain, it was
discovered that she had a plaque on her spine. Later, she was found to
have several more in her brain, and after a long and often painful
workup, she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. It is not all bad
for Sheila though. She has a wonderful and supportive mother that has
been by her side, holding her up a lot of the time, through it all. Not
to mention, some of the greatest friends including Amy who has been
there since she was four years old.
Amy (aka The Queen of Hearts) is a 23-year-young-mother of two
beautiful girls, Hayley and Raven. She knows first-hand how challenging
mentally and financially it is to be young and a mother. However, she
would not trade her little girls for anything in the world and has a
wonderful supportive husband, Jared. Plus, Amy also has Britany who
could cheer anyone out of any kind of bad mood.
Britany (aka The Mad Hatter) is a 23-year-old student at Waubonsee
Community College working towards a degree in Laboratory Science.
Britany does not have any medical problems, too many financial
struggles, or any children. What she does have is a huge heart. When
Britany gets an idea in her head, she runs with it and does not stop
until she sees it done and done right. She was the whole reason we were
dressed as the Wonderland Gang at the Spook Show and the reason we
looked so good we alone raised nearly $250 for the National MS Society
in the model auction.
What Is Going On In Wonderland?
As previously mentioned, the Wonderland Trio has quite a few things in
the works: On March 22, Twisted Wish Productions will be hosting a
benefit for those effected by the events at NUI on February 12, 2008,
at Otto’s Nightclub in Dekalb. The Wonderland Team has taken on the
task of helping out finding sponsors for this event and are hoping to
sponsor themselves. How can you help? We need donations!! We only have
until the end of this week to raise $150 so that Wonderland Productions
can be a sponsor and have their name added to the T-shirt that will be
sold at the event. If you can give even $1, please go to our myspace
page (again its www.myspace.com/wonderlandproductionsinc)
and click the donate button. Also, if you know of any companies or
organizations that would like to sponsor this event, please contact WLP
at wonderlandwishes@yahoo.com. All it takes is $150 and your name will
be added to the T-shirt mentioned above. Only $150 and the world will
know that your company will fight against violence in our schools and
our community. If you cannot donate or be a sponsor, come to the event!
It should be a blast – hours and hours of good music and fun! For more
info go to www.huskiehealing.com.
Also here in Wonderland, we are getting ready for this year’s MS Walk.
This year, Wonderland has our own team to participate in the MS Walk.
As you know, one of our co-founders, Sheila (aka Alice), was recently
diagnosed with MS. Please help us out with this! This cause is very
near and dear to us. Sheila wants to raise $5000 - and we can do it!
Everyone sign up. It's a lot of fun, I think this year we're going to
run in the Chicago location (there are several sites across Illinois to
choose from, Chicago seems to have the biggest turnout). It's one day
out of your life, you can bring all your friends, and lets face it – we
all need the exercise. So go here: http://www.msillinois.org/goto/wonderland and sign up. If you cannot or do not want to walk, go and donate. Like
before, even if it is $1. We learned last year that every little bit
adds up. Most of our donations last year were $5 and $10 and we raised
over $1000 in one week! We appreciate all your help!
Lastly, the Wonderland Team will be participating again this year in
the VOP Fashion and Rock Show. This consists of two days of events: A
Model Auction to help fund the Fashion and Rock Show and the actual
show. The Model Auction will be held April 11, 2008, and the Fashion
and Rock Show is May 30, 2008. Both will be at Shark City in Glendale
Heights. For more information visit www.myspace.com/vopfashionandrockshow
LOL, I am so far from being a yuppie! Unlike most Naperville kids, I had to have a job, buy my own cars, and pay my own bills. Like I said before also, I didn't go to Naperville schools. Thank God! Really the only bar I go to that often is O'Malley's in Aurora/ Montgomery. Thursday nights my friends & I usually go to the comedy club @ Walter Payton's Roundhouse or this new bar in Warrenville called Spats.
