Date women from United States / California / Hermosa Beach, 29 year old

Date someone special from United States. I'm a fun-loving small town girl at heart; I moved to the L.A. area for college and have been here ever since... except when I lived in Ireland... and West Covina... and Vegas... and Ann Arbor... but yeah other than that I've lived in L.A. for the last 10 years.
I have a master's degree in college (seriously) and enjoy my career working with college/graduate students.
I spend most of my time outside of work: socializing with friends, reading, working out, scoping out the perfect happy hour spots, volunteering with a charity I love, or planning my next weekend trip* or party**.
* Usually camping at Kern River - there are few things better than slowly tubing down a cold river under a hot sun with a can of Coors
** Anything from dinner parties to driveway BBQs; I also throw a great 4th of July party every year. People are still talking about the watermelon I turned into a punchbowl and the curiously delicious juice that went inside, and the salad I concocted with dark-chocolate covered bacon and some homemade chocolate vinaigrette dressing.
Things I can't live without include:
- MarioKart (Your face will be as red as Mario's overalls when you realize how badly Princess Peach has whoopped your butt)
- My boogie board (not ashamed that it's bright pink, or that I'm often the only person in the ocean with one over age 14)
- Books (love historical fiction, although I'm ashamed to say I got an iPhone a few months ago and my one book a week habit has been replaced by rounds of "Draw Something")
- Warm weather (I have a space heater in my office year-round)
- Tacos (Self-explanatory!)
As for my ideal guy... having good chemistry, becoming great friends, always being able to laugh together, and wanting the same things out of life are musts for me.
If you're fun, friendly and don't do drugs... shoot me an email!

Meet single girl from United States. I’m a goofy, fun-loving girl who--weirdly enough--enjoys climbing the corporate ladder and appreciates super-lame, nerd jokes. Born and raised all over Southern California (LA, OC and SD), I love all things beach-related and have developed a slight, possibly irrational dislike, er, fear, of the cold. (Sadly, “cold” to me really means all temperatures under 70 degrees.) In social settings, depending on the occasion, I’ve been known to be energetic and ready to trade jokes or just laidback and happy to have others entertain instead. When I’m not working, I have a penchant for watching and reading history, science/nature, sci-fi, fantasy and comic-book-based shows, books and movies. A low-key weekend for me usually involves working out, hanging out with friends, a bar or two and maybe some Star Wars IV, V and VI.
I am not the type of girl who is into chick-flicky, Twilight-esque relationships where we stare deeply into each other eyes and breathlessly comment on how intoxicating the other personРІР‚в„ўs hair smells (or how beautiful their heartbeat sounds).
IРІР‚в„ўd rather have a smart and funny guy who can throw clever insults/jokes at me all day long and is into his career, traveling, working out, the outdoors and dissecting movies. Bonus if heРІР‚в„ўs into cruising Comic-Con with me in matching Ewok costumes.

Date a girl from United States. I guess to start off I am first and foremost looking for someone who is passionate about life and living it to the fullest. I love to laugh and to make people laugh so a great dry, witty, sarcastic sense of humor is a must! I love people that can throw it back to me as fast as I can throw it at them. I am looking for someone that has charisma…that can walk into a room and it immediately lights up.
My friends will tell you that I am honest and keep things simple and straight to the point. I don't like drama - yes a girl saying that is shocking I know - but I truly do not like to be around people or situations that bring drama into my life because life is too short! I am a very loyal person and expect the same from my friends and family. Speaking of family, I am very close with my parents and my younger sister and brother. We have a very strong family bond and I couldn't imagine my life without them.
I would love to meet someone who loves to travel as that is a huge passion of mine. I am the type of person who can pack up at a moments notice to head off on a great adventure. I have traveled around the US and Canada and have been all around Europe and Africa, but my goal is to try and hit all 7 continents…yes Antarctica might be a little difficult, but if I make a goal I need to cross it off the list! I think my next big trip is going to be Australia and New Zealand.
I love to cook, so someone who wants to join in or even stand next to me with a fork would be nice. I often love to sit in bed on Saturday morning with a cup of coffee and watch Food Network to get inspiration for my next meal. It is safe to say you will never be hungry! I am a total foodie and love trying new restaurants, foods, or go wine tasting in Napa/Sonoma or Santa Barbara.
I work in the sports industry and feel so blessed to love what I do. That being said, I am huge college football fan and love to go to games or make a day of watching them at a local sports bar. I was an athlete in college, so I love to be outdoors and active. You will often find me walking on the Strand with my dog.
I am a girl who can be all done up in a cocktail dress one night and the next day be in shorts and flip flops or even better on the couch in my favorite pair of sweats!
If any of this sounds interesting to you I would love to hear from you!
