Never be limited by what has been done before, or by what others think. -Leonardo da Vinci

About Me

I am a sensitive girl (sometimes too much or too often). I am so interested in art, and I love learning new things from it; it inspires me so much. I have my nose pierced, and one tattoo on my foot. I love living on my own and finding out things on my own; experiencing things on my own. That's the true way to learn is to find out by yourself, make your own mistakes if you have to. I am a waitress, I go to school in hopes that someday soon I can be a photographer. My ultimate dream would to be able to travel to the ends of the Earth, making new friends and meeting new people, and taking photographs of everything that inspires me. That includes people. Even when I am waiting tables, I find myself meeting new and interesting people right here in Trussville. I can only imagine if I can do that across the world and capturing beautiful people and places in pictures. I hope that one day I can make a difference and inspire people in their lives. I love my family. Before we know it, someone is gone and you weren't ready to say goodbye. No one really is ready to do that, but with that in mind, I try not to hold grudges or take for granted who truly is important to me. Keep me in check if you see me do otherwise. Randomness and laughing are so awesome. I love Grey's Anatomy. I am intolerant to sexism and racism. I can't stand prejudice in any way or form, really. No one should be the judge of who you are, except for the One True Judge, and He made us all different for a reason! Well, if you've noticed, I like meeting new people. So don't be shy and add me to be your friend!
Confidence begins when you define your own style and enjoy who you are.
"It seems to me that it is within the reach of every woman to develop a similar individuality of style by learning to know herself."
"Pick the day. Enjoy it- to the hilt. The day as it comes. People as they come....The past, I think, has helped me appreciate the present-and I don't want to spoil any of it by fretting about the future."
"The greatest victory in my life has been able to live with myself, to accept my shortcomings and those of others. I'm a long way from becoming the human being I'd like to be. But I've decided I'm not so bad after all."
"Not to live for the day, that would be materialistic-but to treasure the day. I realize that most of us live on the skin-on the surface-without appreciating just how wonderful it is simply to be alive at all."

My Interests

I'm so interested in things that make me think. I love people and their lives, relationships, children, history and culture. I am so inspired by art- I find myself loving more of it every day. I love antiques and vintage. I want to travel the world- I'm so interested in to what the world has to offer! And of course I love photography... and catching things in motion with a camera (they make the best pictures). I love big cities, basketball, and spending time with people I love. Laughing...who doesn't love laughing??
"I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person." -Audrey Hepburn

I hate scary movies, and love romantic comedies. Movies that make me think and can bring many emotions out of me. Does that sound dumb or what? But it's true.

Television:

GREY'S ANATOMY! It's sad how much I love it.

Friends used to be my favorite, until Grey's came along. But I still love it and watch it all the time.

Books:

I don't get to read many books that often, but I do read excerpts and articles concerning history, art, and the world today. "Audrey Hepburn- How to Be Lovely" has amazing quotes and words that she herself lived by, so it's pretty inspiring.

Heroes:

My greatly missed dad. 8/5/99
everyone inspires me in the least imaginable way possible.
The man who died so that I could live, Jesus! "He who hesitates is lost. We can't pretend we hadn't been told. We've all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time, heard the poets urging us to seize the day. Still sometimes we have to see for ourselves. We have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's rug until we can't anymore. Until we finally understand for ourselves what Benjamin Franklin really meant. That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst, beats never trying." -Grey's Anatomy

My Blog

All of these lines across my face tell you the stories of who I am.

So I stole this from my good friend Jenna's profile. It describes exactly how I have been feeling lately- "The ability to make my own choices in life is my most important tool. It is the very thing th...

Something to think about...

Think about this. What do you want to be when you grow up?? Not that we're kids anymore, but you know what I mean. What are you wanting to do with your life? Do we realize that whatever that career or...

Very good. You should look at this.
