I am here for Friends

About Me

I somehow became a city girl after growing up in a cornfield. The town I grew up in just got a super walmart last year, and the only place open all night is hucks (a gas station). needless to say, living in nashville is very different from the small town life for me. i am in my fifth year of teaching here in nashvegas. i moved here on a whim and prayer w/o really knowing anyone to take a teaching job, but have come to call nashville my home. I am one of those few people who actually didn't move to nashville to pursue a music career! I finally joined a new church, which I love. I have come into the 28th year of my life with few regrets, which i consider to be an unbelievable blessing. I serve a God whose mercies are new every morning. I have a wonderful family, a dad who makes jokes about everything, and a mother who is my safe place to fall. My friends in Nashville and all over keep me sane when I want to give into just going crazy, but they also go crazy w/me from time to time. Music & singing help me to connect with God and disconnect from the world. The kids in my class never cease to amaze me with their love of life and their ability to never give up, no matter what.

My Interests

*Jesus *Good friends *Good conversation *My family *My roommates (mindy and krista) *Kids *Laughter *Good music on the radio *Country Music *Singing *Laughing *Teaching *Dancing *Photography *Meeting new people *Talking to my mom and dad *Laughing with my brother and sister-in-law *Hanging out with my niece and nephew *Taking my sister to dairy queen *Sitting at starbux - though i hate coffee (but i do love the smell) *Panera Cinnamon crunch bagels *Chili's Queso Dip *The feeling I get after a great workout *Kickboxing *Shopping *Volleyball *Tennis (though i don't play much...but i did buy a pink racket) *Talking on the phone with great friends that are far away *Chicago *Taking chances *Encouragement *Sleeping while it's raining *Naps on the couch

I'd like to meet:

anyone who is passionate for Christ and compassionate with others....anyone who loves life and seeks out opportunities to make life better for someone else...anyone who is a dreamer, a listener, or a great friend, or anyone who knows they could improve in any of those areas (like me)....anyone who loves the Lord, loves to learn, loves to laugh, and loves to live...anyone who won't accept the status quo...anyone who wants to be a lot more, love a lot more, and do a lot more...
