My Interests

I am a complete smartass. Educated insolence at it's best. I consider myself to be a very responsible person but am learning that if you take life too seriously, it will pass you by. Pursuing things that I am passionate about is the most important thing for me currently. I enjoy reading, writing from time to time, Photography (Especially black and white),love to edit digital pictures to create something completely different, Oil Painting, Charcoal drawing, and being creative in general. I enjoy wine tasting with friends, although I'm not a snob about it.. I can still enjoy the cheep stuff.I recently completed my Second Olympic Triathlon and am currently training for a half marathon. Needless to say I enjoy being active. Love to run... gives me time to myself to reflect on life amongst other things. Dancing ...Dancing...and more Dancing! This has to be one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE things to do! I think I feel the most free... just dancing to a good beat.SOME OF MY PHOTOGRAPHY BELOW~

I'd like to meet:

People who intrigue or inspire me....Be Daring, Be Different, Be impractical, Be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the common place, the slaves of the ordinary ~Cecil Beaton

Music:

Music Expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent~ I like all types of music and am really into lyrics. I love when a song can bring you back to a memory or feeling, Whether that feeling be Jovial or one of heartbreak, this makes me feel alive. I enjoy singing but usually save that for when I'm alone in my car..... Yes I'm the crazy girl sitting in traffic next to you dancing and singing at the top of her lungs.

Movies:

Good Will Hunting, Shawshank Redemption, Sixteen Candles, Uncle Buck, Napoleon Dynamite, The Notebook... any movie that makes me laugh or leaves me with a good feeling at the end.

Television:

I don't watch much TV... as someone once told me "TV makes you stupid".

Books:

I LOVE to read. It's important to stimulate the mind....

Heroes:

My Dad... Ansel Adams who is one of the greatest photographers ever! True lovers... and people who live by their word.

An amazing day...

Poem by Elizabeth Bishop "One Art"

The art of losing isn't hard to master; So many things seem filled with the intent to be lost that their loss is no disaster. Lose something ever day. Accept the fluster of lost door keys, the hour ba...
