About Me


Try the BEST MySpace Editor and MySpace Backgrounds at MySpace Toolbox !I'm a native CA who grew up living on the beach and swimming in the ocean.On a professional note, I like to think big and help people think big too. I like to write too (hence all the blogs.) I also like to help people promote themselves and their projects.Here's something a friend sent me that I really like. Mother Teresa said,"People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway.If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies. Succeed anyway.If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; be honest and frank anyway.What you spend years building someone could destroy overnight. Build anyway.If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous. Be happy anyway.The good you do today people will often forget tomorrow. Do good anyway.Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; give the world the best you've got anyway.You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway."

My Interests

I love all kinds of art and art openings. I also love good music. I enjoy publicizing fine artists and anything that I resonate with. I love good steak, the beach, hiking, dogs, Coffee, Bean & Tea Leaf more than Starbucks, meeting new people, cool parties, good films, outdoor concerts, day trips out of LA, spas, good books, house-sitting in great homes, entertaining, playing racquetball, bike riding, singing, traveling to exotic beaches, New York City at New Years, Cabo San Lucas, Africa, Europe, playing with kids, laughing, Mexican food (in small doses), oy vey everything!

I'd like to meet:

Cool, smart, interesting people with something to say whether it be with their music, their books, films, art, or just their myspace page...Check out my blogs: www.thejoywriterpr.wordpress.com and my latest GoChi Juice website if you're interested in improving your health and creating an extra income at the same time: www.joykennelly.freelife.comLove to make new friends, meet cool people and maybe my soul mate!

Take the Quiz

Music:

My favorite radio station is "scan." I've added most of the bands I like, but there's a few I'm missing.

Top 40 (anything I can sing to),blues, rap, rhythm and blues/soul, jazz, classical at the Hollywood Bowl, electronica at raves, dance when I'm feeling good and need to express myself, country - everything except hard rock or 70's rock, but even then I like that in small doses too when I'm in an aggressive mood. It all depends on the mood I'm in.

Movies:

Loved Motorcycle Diaries and on the other end of the spectrum, Wedding Crashers. I love all types of comedy and funny guys - Old School, Owen and Luke Wilson, Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, Ben Stiller, Jimmy Fallon, I like Woody Allen films, dorky humor (Dumb and Dumber), anything funny because I love to laugh.

Television:

Grey's Anatomy and Desperate Housewives are the only shows I watch regularly. Too busy for TV.

Books:

I read more mags than books, but then I get in the mood for books and check out 10 at a time from the library. I'm an avid reader, but also love to go out so it depends what kind of mood I'm in.

Heroes:

Mayou Angelou, Oprah, anyone helping disadvantaged children like Hands & Feet Project and Chronicle Project. <!--cut and paste-->
