The Road To Hell Is Paved With Good Intentions

About Me

I really dont know how to start off. There are a whole lot of things to say just not enough time and energy and the right words to explain who i am. I have been through some really tough times in my life and of course ive had my mountain tops. Life has taught me to see things from a broader perspective and also to enjoy the things i have and dream about the things I want. I could not possible sum things up into a sentence or a paragraph or even a whole book, but here is my attempt at the "about me": I am very stubborn yet willing to compromise the ideals and common assumptions that i have had in the past and in the future, depending on the evidence presented to me. I am a different person than what i used to be. I used to be someone who conformed to everyone elses idea of who i should be. I now have form my own ideas and behavior based off of what i feel is just and necessary for me to be happy. I guess this is a place to brag about myself and sell myself to someone who may be wanting to befriend me. The most noticeable trait that i have is that i get along with everyone. For the most part it is easy to create and maintain a conversation with me. I am easy to get along with, yet i am NOT a pushover. For my ememys, which are few and far between; as i have mentioned before i am very stubborn. Unfortunately, unless you convince me otherwise you will continue to be on my bad list. Again, these people are few and far between, probably one, or possible two people. I do enjoy life as much as i can. I am not rich, I am not poor, take me or leave me as I am. You make the call

My Interests

I have alot of interests. My main interest is to fulfill the dreams that I have always had, for example becoming a teacher. I wouldn't necessarily call them interests i think i would call them goals.

I'd like to meet:

There alot of people that I have already met that have shaped my life in some sort of way. To become who I am right now took alot of hard work and effort. I thank those friends and family who have been there for me in the past and in for those who will be there for me in the future.

Music:

I listen too all sorts of music. And i like alot of songs. On my computer there are over 1000 songs that i listen to over and over again and I never get tired of them. Most recently I have been listening to Paramore."Someone"You can't eat, you can't sleep, you can weep when you love someone Feels extreme when you dream, and you scream when you love someoneIf you feel that strong Can you see that, one[Chorus] Let me be your... Someone to hold you tight Someone to make you feel All right.Everyday and night I wish I was your someoneSomeone to hold you when you're weak Someone to make you feel completeEvery day and night I wish I was your someoneSomeoneDon't you know, I will go, if you show that I can break through Feels extreme when you dream, and you scream when you love someoneIf you feel that strong Can you see that you're the one[Chorus]And I hold you tight You're still on my mind, I can't stand to live without you And I can't forget you Wherever you are, you're still on my mind

Movies:

Some of my current favorites are "Freedom Writers", "Inside Man", and "The Day After Tommorrow". I dont really watch a whole lot of movies though

Television:

I dont watch a whole lot of television but i do find myself watching Comedy Central alot.

Books:

I really dont read alot. Its mainly because i dont find the time to read.

Heroes:

My mom; Linda JoAnne Kruse. You fought so hard in the face of death, without fail you continued to show your gratitude and compassion to others without thinking of yourself...you were amazing, I could not have asked for anyone better. God Speed my friendxoxoxoxoBy digital.fragrance
