Bio

About me:

LAURA
Gender: Feminine

Usage: English, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian, Finnish, Hungarian, Polish

Pronounced: LAWR-a (Spanish, Italian) [key]

Feminine form of the Late Latin name Laurus, which meant "laurel". Saint Laura was a 9th-century Spanish martyr, a nun who was thrown into a vat of molten lead by the Moors.

...Too bad I wasn't thrown into a vat of molten lead by black people.

My name is Laura. I'm an artist...I guess... and a paper chaser. I'm 25 years old. I live in Statesboro, GA. I'm engaged to my best friend Matt (mattindeed), so please don't hit on me... not that you would want to. I work for a portrait studio as a sales representative. I just graduated from college in December 2008. I have a BFA in Fine Arts with a focus on photography. In my spare time I keep a clean house, surf the net for useful info. & jobs, watch documentaries & lots of movies, listen to lots of music, and read books about oceanic life. I'm pretty boring, but I can say some funny things from time to time. If you add me as a friend please let me know and prepare to be bored.
