God gave you the gift of life, so live it.

About Me

My best qualities are being fun loving, having a sense of humor, and being a loyal daughter, sister, aunt and friend. My family and friends mean a lot to me. I have three nephews and two nieces I love to death. I decided to go back to school about four years ago after having what must have been an attack of insanity, and recently graduated from Cal State Dominguez Hills on May 18, 2007. I'm glad to be done. I'm far from perfect, but I do my best, and I'm a good listener. I'm realistic without being bitter about it; I learned a long time ago you only end up hurting yourself by being bitter. I have a good understanding of human nature and how things tend to get screwed up when you throw imperfect people into the mix.

My Interests

Family, music, reading, school, writing, pirate stuff, English stuff, Eastern European stuff, history. I like to sing and I've started attending choir rehearsals at my church again after being too buried in school for several years to be able to do that. I'd like to write a book one day.

I'd like to meet:

It would be pretty cool to get to meet Jesus, and I will one day. I gave my heart to Him when I was 13, and He's always been there to see me through even when it seemed like nobody else was. I'd like to meet people who will listen to me, have a sense of humor and who I can relax and be myself with.

Music:

Petra, Delirious, Andrew Lloyd Weber's musicals, Sarah Brightman, Michael Crawford, Journey (Steve Perry-sigh), Dan Fogelberg, Beatles, Beach Boys, Pretenders, Kinks, Styx (Dennis DeYoung-sigh), Chicago (Peter Cetera-sigh..Okay, you get the idea), Creedence Clearwater Revival, Kansas, Stryper, Guardian, Steve Taylor, Eagles (early stuff), Enya. I could go on. I like all sorts of music, and I love musical theater, but I'm basically a rock n' roll animal...Especially 80s rock.

Movies:

Just about anything with Tom Hanks, Hugh Jackman and Harrison Ford. I like most of Bill Murray's movies, he's a riot..."Ghostbusters" and "What About Bob" always make me laugh. I liked him in Saturday Night Live too. I like most of Johnny Depp's movies. I like most of the superhero movies. "Batman Begins" rocks and is the best one of the "Batman" bunch. I like most of Jack Nicholson's movies, even though he usually scares the pants off me. He's pretty spooky even when he's having a GOOD day. LOL. I like most of Sandra Bullock's movies. I like most of Dustin Hoffman's movies. "Tootsie" and "Hero" are hilarious. Classics like Gone With the Wind, Casablanca, the Maltese Falcon and Wizard of Oz. Titanic, Bond films (Pierce Brosnan is the best), the Disney classics, Shrek, Finding Nemo, the Emperor's New Groove, Ice Age, Polar Express. Okay so I'm into kiddie movies.

Television:

I don't watch a great deal of TV, but I like Law and Order and ER, although I haven't watched L and O quite as much since Jerry Orbach left and haven't watched ER as much since George Clooney, Tony Edwards and then Noah Wyle left. Call me picky or whatever, it takes away from a show for me if my favorite characters leave. I also like Without A Trace, The Closer (I love Kyra Sedgwick), CSI (William Peterson is a hunk!!!), Law and Order: Criminal Intent, Law and Order: Special Victims Unit and House (good show, but any doctor who talked to his staff or patients and popped pills like House does would probably find himself in trouble-Okay, so it's just a TV show. The medical stuff is interesting, and he is a good actor). I like the old movie channels, TMC and AMC, and Arts and Entertainment and TNT have good stuff.

Books:

Anything by Max Lucado or Frank Peretti; Tess Gerritsen, Mary Higgins Clark, Robin Cook, C.S. Lewis. And of course the Bible.

Heroes:

Jesus is my hero...His loving me enough to die and rise again for me makes Him deserving of hero status.Anyone who has the nerve do what is right (and can manage to be kind in the process) no matter what people think gets points in my book.
