About Me

I need a new "About Me"
Well for starters, I like ice cream, cheese, potatoes, and chocolate. But not at the same time. I love spontaneous road trips and vacations with my best friends but with my business schedule, they're rarely spontaneous but we like to pretend that they are. I have a trusty green honda named Kermit but have known to drive a pick up truck.. or two. Currently, I'm a grad student at Texas A&M University where I am not only earning my masters in Communication and Media Studies but also teaching public speaking to students that are often taller than me and sometimes older than me. It's awkward. But I like awkward.
For more info just look at the xanga .

Words of Wisdom


What a man desires is unfailing love.
Proverbs 19:22.
"Sing, O barren woman, you who never bore a child; burst into song, shout for joy, you who were never in labor; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband," says the Lord. Isaiah 54: 1
The moment a person forms a theory, his imagination sees in every object only the traits which favor that theory.
Thomas Jefferson
The Christian life hurts like heaven, even though sometimes it seems like hell, because heaven wants me to change and hell hopes I never do.
Joe Norenson
The task of all Christian scholarship—not just biblical studies—is to study reality as a manifestation of God's glory, to speak and write about it with accuracy, and to savor the beauty of God in it. It is a massive abdication of scholarship that so many Christians do academic work with so little reference to God.
John Piper
Heaven is not here, it's there. If we were given all we wanted here, our hearts would settle for this world rather than the next.
Elisabeth Elliot
Everything is needful that He sends; nothing can be needful that He withholds.
John Newton
Patience with others is love. Patience with self is hope. Patience with God is faith.
Adel Bestavros
Have courage for the great sorrows of life and patience for the small ones; and when you have laboriously accomplished your daily task, go to sleep in peace. God is awake.
Victor Hugo
Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you.
Jean Paul Sartre
The natural mind cannot do anything godly. It does not perceive the wrath of God, therefore cannot rightly fear him. It does not see the goodness of God, therefore cannot trust or believe in him either. Therefore, we should constantly pray that God will bring forth his gifts in us
Martin Luther
I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; Be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord. Psalm 27:13-14
Someday you will read in the papers that Moody is dead. Don't you believe a word of it. At that moment I shall be more alive than I am now.
D.L. Moody
Give what thou commandest and commandest what thou wilt.
Augustine
Draw me, however unwilling, to make me willing; draw me, slow-footed, to make me run.
Benard cited in Calvin's Institutes 1:307
Whoever tells the stories shapes society.
Plato
You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body. C. S. Lewis
Broken body: not for sale,
Pity cannot seek out her treasure.
Broken body: not yet pale,
In brilliant colors she will weather.
Broken body: shall not fail,
She flies on the strength of a feather.
We love because He first loved us.
1John 4:10
