    Your Interests
    I'm passionate about my family and friends- they are the most important things in my life! I moved here because of my family, and can't imagine living my life without them. I can't stand apathy (PLEASE VOTE!) and am committed to leaving this world a little bit better whenever I can. I'm a conservative liberal who doesn't seem to fit in CA or TX, but I don't let that bother me. Ok, I try not to . . . I love to laugh- in fact, it's pretty much a guarantee that whenever you see me, I'll be giggling like a school girl. I'd rather not grow up too much- I miss naptime and recess. I've gone whitewater rafting once and loved it- even though I HONEST TO GOODNESS almost died, but that's why it's fun, right? Truth be told, I have a flare for the dramatic, so I've almost died many times, some real, some, perhaps, slightly exaggerated. I'm called MeMe, Salamanda, Apanda, Blondie and Amanda Marie (the last said with a good southern twang by my Mom's family). I've travelled a bit, but still want to go to Greece, Italy, Norway, Australia, South Africa, Brazil and a whole host of other wonderful places. I'm not entirely sure this all fits under "Your Interests" but it's my profile and I'll cry, er, write what I want to. Oh, and I absolutely, positively love any and all pop culture references to the 80's and 90's. :)
    Favorite Music
    I like all types of music, but especially country- I love Toby Keith, Martina McBride, Rascal Flatts, Montgomery Gentry, Trisha Yearwood . . . and I'll even admit (but only to you guys) to my utter and complete obsession with Britney Spears . . .
    Favorite Books
    Mystery, Romance, Classics- Dan Brown, Stephanie Laurens, William Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Richard North Patterson, Celeste Bradley, Marion Zimmer Bradley, J.K. Rowling
    Favorite TV Shows
    ER, American Dreams, Friends, Sex & the City, Will & Grace, 7th Heaven, Real World, Gilmore Girls, CSI, The Amazing Race, Masterpiece Theater, Grey's Anatomy
    Favorite Movies
    Beauty & the Beast, any Jane Austen adaptation, Love Actually, Legally Blonde, Grease, The Hours, So I Married an Axe Murderer, The Princess Bride, The Breakfast Club, Mannequin, Spacecamp, The NeverEnding Story, Under The Tuscan Sun, Harry Potter (all of them + the books), Star Wars, Dead Poets' Society, Good Will Hunting ... the list goes on and on!

    About Me
    Born and raised in Southern California, went to UCLA, worked for a large corporation, quit (night shifts SUCK!) and moved to Texas on a whim for my family ... I've been here since August 2004 and I love it!
    Why I joined
    I can't say that I'm new to Houston much longer, since I am going on 5 years ... but that's why I originally joined- new town = new friends. But I do love the MiH crowd- y'all are too much fun!
    My Best MEETin event story ( please only fill in after you have been to an event )
    MeetIn Texas hands down ... the Austin crew did a great job, and I loved meeting the peeps from Dallas as well. The Pub Crawl was too much fun, even if I did end up (somehow?!?!) with torn clothing ... and of course, the Grape Stomp was awesome. Give a group of people who drank too much wine a car alarm and they'll have a ball!! Houston events: Cinco de Drunko, Sleepover Part Deux ... and HOCKEY!! And, of course, any event at Scott & Elena's house ... HAPPY NEW YEAR 2006!! It was a GREAT party! ;)

    I immediately felt like I had known Amanda forever! She's just an all around fun person :) Very glad I got a chance to speak to her more at a recent event and look forward to seeing her at others....

    <-( Sonia says ;-)
    Amanda hosted my first Meetin activity and she is awesome! She made the 3.1 miles at the Astros walk/run pass quickly and I can't thank her enough. If everyone in this group is as friendly as she is, I can't wait to attend more events.

    <-( Alirio says ;-)
    Yeah! I'm placing testimonial #20!!! :) I met Amanda at game night. She is super nice! Radka and I had a lot of fun with her around. She's easy to talk to and makes you feel comfortable and welcome in MiH. I'm looking forward to seeing her at other events!!!

    <-( Dionne says ;-)
    Amanda is a pleasure to talk to and great at GUESSTURES! She is a professional I think! Can't wait until her housewarmeing for more games....

    <-( Katie says ;-)
    Amanda is the coolest! she is one of the cheeriest people i have ever met.(and yes i know that is not really a word, i just invented it!) How can you not be in a happy mood and have an awesome time when you are with her. she is a great friend. Besides, she is from cali too, and understands the significance of IN-N-OUT, what more could you ask for!? :)

    <-( Rachel says ;-)
    Amanda is a true delight to be around. She throws a great bbq, volunteers when people are needed to step up, and you just gotta love a lady who will hop in her car, haul a** down 45 when you're looking for peeps to get bushwacked with. What a sweetie!

    <-( LaTanya says ;-)
    Amanda is a wonderful mix of party animal and Martha Stewart. She is funny, smart, and makes very strong jello shots. Your meetin experience will not be complete until you've partied with her (trust me on this one).

    <-( Elizabeth says ;-)
    Amanda doesn't just light up a room - she lights it on fire!! At 1st i thought it was just the bubbly, but nooo- she is just that krazy kool. my fav thing is that she's always willing to help those in need - in need of beads, in need of backup dancers on stage... how cud u not luv this girl!?!?

    <-( Robert says ;-)
    Amanda seemed to have come out of nowhere! She started off sprinting - hosting wild overnight parties and participating in lots of Meetin events. She can be counted on to do just about anything and will keep the laughs going constantly!

    <-( Russ says ;-)
    Amanda is a spontaneous and entertaining gal. Having her around always adds fun and atmosphere to the evening. Although I have to remind her that we are on the Central time not Mountain :)

    <-( Pamela says ;-)
    Amanda Amanda - What can I say... My first MeetIn even was of course, The Dessert Gallery. I sat next to Amanda, it was our own little Cali group. Amanda was sooo welcoming! She thinks I'm quiet - I imagine that's only because I haven't gone to a 'Drinking Event,' YET. I'm still taking it all in so I'll have to make sure Amanda is at my debut drinking event so she can get a glimpse of my 'Other Side' come to life!

    <-( Mike says ;-)
    Amanda is a ball of energy and a very kind spirit. She is always raring to go, if it is volunteer work, she is the first to roll up her sleeves and heave ho. If you every bottle up some of that energy...put me on the mailing list.

    <-( Elena says ;-)
    If I had a sister, I'd want her to be just like Amanda. She's a girly-girl, but she's super-smart and can talk about anything from business things that are over my head to how yucky boys are. She's bubbly and has the best laugh. Especially when we give her a lot of drinks :) Oh yeah - and she's way nice to her younger brother who usually tortures her. That's generosity.

    <-( Sarah says ;-)
    Amanda is awesome! Such a sweet natured, positive person with a beautiful smile. She makes you feel completely comfortable and welcome. I look forward to many more fun events with her.

    <-( Roger says ;-)
    Amanda you are such a fun personality despite being an UCLA Bruin (bruinette?). You host the most artistic / culturally-enriching events and have forgotten more about art than most people ever know. Looking forward to many more fun events!

    <-( Darrell says ;-)
    Amanda is the sweetest! She let us invade her home, drink her beer, and soak in her hot tub. I met her at the volunteer event at habitat for humanity and knew instantly she was a really kind and thoughtful person. What's not to like about her? She's wonderful! She's one of those people who instantly brightens a room whenever she walks in.

    <-( Bronwen says ;-)
    Amanda has the amazing ability to take you in and really make you feel like part of the family. You talk to her for 15 minutes and it's if you've known her forever! She's a great listener and just as good a story-teller. And her energy! Her effervescence is infectious, no matter how surly you may start your day.

    <-( David says ;-)
    Amanda is the greatest! She can toss an awesome event, plan her way through anything, and is so much fun to be around! Give her a few Jell-O shots and you can take loads of picutres that are just prime for some creative captions! Better yet... have her parents make the Jell-O shots! Her brother is crazy (but loads of fun) and her parents are loads of fun and ubercool (not the "careless" kind of cool, as that's not cool -- they're just awesome, involved, fun parents). Aside from kicking Amanda out of the family and taking her place, I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a better person to be with at an event.

    <-( Shane says ;-)
    If you want to host a fun event, make sure Amanda Hansen can attend. Or, just make it easy on yourself, and attend one of her events. But whatever you do, just don't get caught snorting Jell-o shots in her kitchen. In front of her parents.

    <-( Evelyn says ;-)
    Amanda is great! She is one of those people who is always smiling and is willing to do anything. Bar hopping, Camping, volunteering, sleepovers, whatever....she is there with a smile and always makes sure everyone around her is having fun.
