Date women from United States / California / Ripon, 27 year old

Date a soulmate from Ripon, United States. Born here in the SF Bay Area and attended college in Arkansas.
I am currently attending graduate school in the south bay for US history eventually going into teaching.
i am a pretty casual person a basic tee shirt and jeans type of person. i am laid back and pretty shy in the beginning though I tend to warm up to people fairly quick. I think the best relationships are rooted in friendship. fancy cars or loads of money do not impress me at all. love country music and grew up listening to it and that wont ever change. im pretty nerdy so hopefully that will entertain readers here. so if you are interested in talking to someone who has some morals and values i guess send me a message.
an ideal match? hmm i really dont know. someone who knows how to laugh, at least can tolerate country music, likes to read and sometimes likes to argue about movies...i guess right now i am just looking for friends or new people to talk to. graduate school has basically ruined any sort of social life i could have had.

Meet someone special from Ripon, United States. My life has been blessed with a fabulous family and amazing friends. I was raised with morals, to be kind and considerate, and I push myself to become better every day. I am thoughtful, sweet and I make it a habit to show the people around me how much I care for them. On the other side, I am sarcastic and witty and never back down from a challenge no matter how big or small. I am always on the move whether that's working out or finding a trail to run. Fitness is a big part of my life and I enjoy trying to make healthy food taste good!
I can rock a pair of basketball shorts then turn around and walk out in heels and curls. I like looking like a lady for my man, but I am a far cry from a high maintenance diva. I am at my happiest hiking around a mountain, watching a baseball game surrounded by people that make me smile, or hanging out and making dinner in super sexy sweats ;)
I am an independent woman that wants a partner and friend. I am very social so if you have a hard time meeting new people then I might not be what you're looking for. IРІР‚в„ўm attracted to a man that has strong family values, good sense of humor, intelligence, is kind and easy going.
Someone that works hard but doesn't take themselves too seriously, is committed to his responsibilities but will be spontaneous enough to run off and explore something with me when time allows.
