Good hello everyone! I’m Amanda, I’m 36, I’m from Arkansas and I drink WAY too much Dr. Pepper. Haha! I am a single mom of four kids and being a mom takes up a LOT of my time. I’m unable to have much of a social life and so I thought this may be right up my alley! I’m excited about finding this website and can’t wait to get started! I looked forward to making others smile and making some new friends. Thanks for having me.

I have quite the diverse taste in music. And I love to make friends with others who do too. I’ll include a list of my most favorite singers/songwriters below in no particular order. -The Lumineers -Lana Del Rey -Post Malone -MAC Miller -Guns n Roses -Miley Cyrus -Aerosmith -Taylor Swift -Bon Iver -Coldplay

I feel music can be very moving in lots of different ways. I’m amazed to see how much the music that we listen to affects us all. It’s remarkable.

I don’t watch much tv but I do watch a LOT of YouTube. Some tv series I’ve watched and loved are also not in any particular order...

Breaking Bad Parenthood This Is Us The Handmaid’s Tale Big Little Lies Better Things

I also enjoy Jimmy Kimmel, and Jimmy Fallon. Don’t watch regularly but I catch up here and there. I love 20/20 and Dateline as well. I’m almost always keeping up with real time court trials on YouTube. Something about them fascinate me!

I love all things paper. I have always loved stationary and journaling since I was very young and the Lisa Frank phase was strong! Ha! I started making junk journals in 2017 and I have been working on them since. I don’t consider myself a pro but it is very fun and I love to learn from others. My favorite color is green. I’ve been drawn to every shade since I can remember! I collect elephants and have since I was a teenager. Elephants everything and whales too! They are both such gentle giant creatures who mean so much to our world. I also love all things vintage and tons of florals.

The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls is probably my favorite book of all time but I have enjoyed many others as well. Any poetry by Anne Sexton or Maya Angelou...

Love all kinds of movies. Not so much into chick flicks now that I’ve gotten older though. My favorites to watch are documentaries as well as docuseries.
