About Me

I am a freshman at Troy University...Go TrOjAnS! Right now, I am planning on majoring in athletic training. Hopefully, when I am done here, I can go to Alabama for grad school. I love my family and friends, and I always try to make a little time for everyone. I've been working as a cashier at Publix for almost a year now...yes, I love that too...I especially love the people I work with (most of them anyway). God has really blessed me and I praise Him everyday for all the little (and big) things in my life. I'm really a simple person...everything else is pretty much summed up in my interests section. This layout is from whateverlife.com.

My Interests

Well, there is a lot of stuff that interests me. I guess you could say that I am kind of obsessive about the things I like. I am a huge fan of ALABAMA football...ROLL TIDE ROLL!!! I love sports! Football would have to be my favorite...well, volleyball is my favorite to play. I will watch pretty much any sport, but I'm not too fond of baseball...it's too slow. Of course I cheer for the Crimson Tide and the SEC, but when it comes to the NFL, I'm more of an individual fan...I love Peyton (actually, I love all the Mannings). If I have to choose a team, it would have to be the COLTS! I absolutely love playing games (trivial pursuit, cranium, balderdash, clue, scene it, and too many more to mention). I'm a dog person...I hate cats! Molli is my little poodle that I love to death- even if she isn't considered a "real dog." I love camping, hiking, skiing, [trying to] windsurf, tennis, golf, swimming, anything outside, martial arts, and anything that presents a challenge. I really like to travel. I love music and movies, playing on my computer, and hanging out with friends. Now that I'm in school, I've developed a love for naps- without my nap, I am very disfunctional during those all night "study" hours. Well, I'm sure there is a lot more, but I am going to quit now because you probably never made it this far anyway.

I'd like to meet:

YOU! So send me a message;)

Music:

Jimmy Buffett is #1 on my list, but I really like a wide variety of everything. Some of my favorites (in ABC order): Allman Brothers, BARENAKED LADIES, BILLY JOEL, Black Eyed Peas, Bob Dylan, Bob Marley, BOSTON, Breaking Benjamin, Casting Crowns, Dave Matthews Band, Don McLean, ELTON JOHN, Eric Clapton, Exile, Fall Out Boy, Garth Brooks, Gnarles Barkley, GooGoo Dolls, HOOTIE AND THE BLOWFISH, Jack Johnson, James Blunt, James Taylor, John Legend, JOHN MAYER, Journey, Keith Urban, Kenny Chesney, Lionel Richie, Michael Buble, Michael W. Smith, Nickelback, Nora Jones, Panic at the Disco, Relient K, Rod Stewart, Sean Paul, Shania Twain, Shinedown, Steven Curtis Chapman, Styx, System of a Down, the Eagles, the FRAY, The Police, the Rat Pack, Yung Joc...oh man I could go on forever...I LOVE MUSIC!!!Here is a little background on the video below...Leah leads a bible study for Campus Outreach in my dorm on Monday nights. She just turned 29 as the song clearly tells, but she looks like she is 18 or 19. Leah loves to change the words to songs, so for her birthday, Caroline, Holly, and I changed the words of the 98 degrees song Give Me Just One Night (una noche). I hope you enjoy. We messed up a little, but that's o.k... she still loved it!This is the most recent performance by the Tornadoes. We were specially requested to sing at a graduation party for four seniors here at Troy. Due to time limitations from studying for exams, we only had one hour to figure out the lyrics and dance moves. We had to use the words since there wasn't enough time to memorize them. I hope you enjoy!

Movies:

Jamis Bond (Sean Connery is the best...don't even try to argue with me because I WILL WIN!), Indiana Jones (woo Harrison Ford is perhaps the best looking actor of his time), Finding Nemo, Pirates of the Caribbean, Forrest Gump, the Fugitive, Young Frankenstein, High Anxiety, Rocky (all), Men in Black II, Hoosiers, Remember the Titans, NACHO LIBRE!!!, Superman Returns, Turner and Hooch, Sixth Sense, the Others, Spider Man, Da Vinci Code,Enough, Robin Hood Price of Thieves, Rent, Miss Congeniality, Napoleon Dynamite, Euro Trip, European Vacation, Christmas Vacation, A Knight's Tale, Rush Hour, Bad Boys, Happy Feet, Phantom of the Opera, The Guardian, anything with TOM HANKS (probably the best actor ever)- Sleepless in Seattle, You've Got Mail, Road to Perdition, etc... Office Space, Employee of the Month, the Illutionist, Six Days Seven Nights, Clear and Present Danger, What Lies Beneath, Talladega Nights, Cars, The Jungle Book, I guess I better stop...I love movies and could go on all day listing my favorites! The newest addition to my favorite movies list is Invinvible...at first, I didn't think I wanted to watch another sports movie (they are all the same), but this one is great and Mark Wahlberg is sooo hot... I definitely recommend it! More newbies= THE DEPARTED, Rumor has it, Breach, and Boondock Saints

Television:

CSI all the way!!!! or whatever sporting event I can find that interests me.

Books:

Depends on the mood I am in. Usually, its Mary Higgins Clark, J.K. Rowling, or John Grisham.

Heroes:

My Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ who has done so much for me. I could never praise Him or do enouch good deeds to ever repay Him.
