About Me


Hi, I'm Kristen. ::curtseys:: I'm currently a student in the College of Visual Arts and Design, with a focus in Interior Design at North Texas. Some people say that art is an easy way out of actually having to have a major. Those people need to try to do what we do for a day and see if their opinion changes. Anyhow...

My Interests



BAMMM!

The arts are not way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven's sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy one. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something. -A man without a Country

I'd like to meet:

Movies:

" Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond imagination. It is our light more than our darkness which scares us. We ask ourselves – who are we to be brilliant, beautiful, talented, and fabulous. But honestly, who are you to not be so?
You are a child of God, small games do not work in this world. For those around us to feel peace, it is not example to make ourselves small. We were born to express the glory of god that lives in us. It is not in some of us, it is in all of us. While we allow our light to shine, we unconsciously give permission for others to do the same. When we liberate ourselves from our own fears, simply our presence may liberate others."

Heroes:

"who are you to judge the life that i live? I know I'm not perfect--I don't live to be. But before you start pointing fingers, make sure your hands are clean." -Bob Marley

"Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius, and it's better to be absolutely rediculous than absolutely boring." - Marilyn Monroe

"I'm selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control, and at times hard to handle, but if you can't handle me at my worst...then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." -Marilyn Monroe
