About Me


Hmmmm....let's see....All About Me?......
Well there's me, me, me, me and me. Oh, and did i forget to mention...me? :P

My fotograffik skillz... Please click and comment. :) I'd love to read your thoughts.
Some adjectives that I would use to describe myself:
Friendly, Feisty, Mellow, Smart, Genuine, Introspective, Artistic, Eclectic, Tall...
Ok, lemme spill my guts....
Music and Art are two of my passions in life. I have an eclectic style and enjoy all types of music and all types of art. Let's put it this way...I always love to put my ipod or my whole itunes collection on shuffle. That produces a mega mix of jazz, metal, hip hop, alternative rock, reggae, classic rock, trip hop, classical, the encompassing "world" category, and so much more. Some of my favorite types of art are paintings by the impressionists, surrealists, and expressionists. I usually enjoy any type of modern art. :)
Traveling is something I really like to do. Any chance I get, I'm in my car driving somewhere new or maybe somewhere old that is really special to me. That includes the beach, mountains, desert, parks, or even just a really nice neighborhood with charm. I have a strong desire to see new things, places, people, culture, etc. Aside from traveling in the car, I do like to travel by plane or train, but haven't had the time/money to do so in a while. Someday I will go back to Europe and travel to as many countries as I can! hehe
As for my career life, I am approaching the finish line in my quest to achieve my bachelor's degree in Art Education. Not quite sure what I'm gonna do with that degree, but I'm sure it will be rewarding. That being said, I am still in college and have a somewhat busy schedule. To help pay the bills, I am working part time as a teacher assistant. It's a fun job and really flexible with my college classes. One thing that I am certain of is my strong determination to achieve my goals.

Warm and Fuzzy Thoughts

This was written in the dark hours of the night. Incense lit, the lights were dim, the music was somber......I had a glimpse of a morbid thought that crept into mind and surfaced on the computer scr...
