ANNA!

I am here for Friends

About Me

Hey, guess what? I LOVE JESUS! That's really what you need to know about me, right off the bat. Jesus saved my life, and if it weren't for God sending him to die in my place, I'd be a wretched mess destined for Hell. But now . . . I get to go to Heaven! YEAH! I go to North Central University, which is a Pentecostal private school in downtown Minneapolis, MN. It's pretty awesome, so if you ever wanna go to college, you should consider going to NCU. Besides going to school, I have a job at the Park at the Mall of America, operating the rides that all the lil kiddies love. The job has its ups and downs, but it's a pretty fun job for the most part. One thing you should know about me is that I love my family. I only have one brother, who is younger than me and MARRIED! AAHHHH! Crazy, I know. But he's great, and so are my parents. Oh, and I have a cat named Archibald Digory Driscoll. He's awesome, and you should get to know him :P I'm a crazy person who likes to be spontaneous, but if you ever need an open ear, I'm there for you, too. PUT YOUR ABOUT ME SECTION HERE!

My Interests

Hmmm....lemme think.....I am really into art and music, although I can't really play any instruments. That's just the way God made me. I love hanging out with friends. If I could be around a few friends every day, I don't think I would ever have a bad day. I go to church a lot...I guess you could say I'm passionate about it. But, um, I don't really know what else to write, so yeah. I'm done.

I'd like to meet:

. . . people where they are. This quote explains what I mean: "When you want to convert someone to your view, you go over to where he is standing, take him by the hand, and guide him. you don't stand across the room and shout at him; you don't order him to come over where you are. You start where he is and work from that position. That's the only way to make him budge."-Thomas Aquinas(1225-1274) Italian Theologian and Philosopher. Isn't this an awesome quote? I absolutely love it! It's gonna be my new quote for life. PUT YOUR I'D LIKE TO MEET SECTION HERE! Changes may take up to 2 mins to show on your profileView All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment

Music:

You know what frickin' rocks? Cities 97! I love that station so much . . . it's amazing. But, yeah, here's a list of all of my favorite bands . . . if you don't want to know, then don't read it!People In Planes, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Starsailor, Relient K, Panic at the Disco, Remedy Drive, The Red Letter Diaries, Tomorrow's 39, Justin Timberlake, Toby Mac, Weezer, The Killers, Sia, Kutless, Savage Garden, Micheal Buble, CopelandIf you start playing rap or country around me, I will not be able to help the rageful emotions that spill out of me. It's kind of like a reflex. I might lash out at you uncontrollably, or I may smash your CD into little tiny bits. You never know. The best thing to do is just not play it around me and play it safe!

Television:

I don't get a whole lot of time to watch television, but when I do I watch The Office, CSI(the original), American Idol(this is very recent), Lost(also recent), House, and that's about it. We don't have cable, so I don't get to watch my all-time-fave "While You Were Out"

Books:

The Bible by God, The Guardian by Nicholas Sparks, Epic by John Eldredge, Do You Think I'm Beautiful by Angela Thomas, The Narnia Chronicles by C.S. Lewis, Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, Manalive by G.K. Chesterton, ....

Heroes:

Jesus Christ, my savior, and my mom and dad
