About Me

Lord, Help your sons to be the men that you are calling us to be, Help us to live our lives in a way that will expresses to the world that you are our foundation and center, and that it is far more important for us to be accepted and approved of by you than anything else that this world has to offer, Help us to stand firm against the enemy, because without you, we are powerless and will fail, Give us a strength that will withstand the attack of lust, anger, bitterness, pride, and fear and give us a love and faith that will make them all have to flee, Start with our hearts and minds Lord, and just as your word talks about gold being purified by the fire, bring ALL the impurities that hinder us from serving you up to the surface for us to see and give us the courage, strength, and wisdom to face the things that are keeping us from serving you to our fullest potential,we want to be used by you Lord, please soften our hearts and protect our minds and break us of the pride that stops us from depending on you.

My Interests

Jesus, Sarcasm, Surfing , Halo 2 so i can get ready for Halo 3!!!!!! Woo-Hoo!!, Guitar (I'm re-learning left handed, so i actually hate the guitar right now), Wake-Boarding, Skate-Boarding, Any and all sports, Call Of Duty (I hate how much i suck though, so its a love/hate relationship), Minesweeper (Man im sooo addicted to that game right now. 140 seconds on expert! woohoo!), And anything that keeps the voices in my head at bay.

I'd like to meet:

Jesus, God, The Holy Spirit, Fellow surfers in Christ,... and anyone who can tolerate me

Music:

Pretty much Every-thing but Country. I've been forced to listen to it for the past 5 years and it just doesnt seem to take.

Movies:

My favorite Surfing flicks right now are Campaign 1, Kumbuyah, and Latin Young Guns, The Emperor's New Groove is the BEST animation ever! Horror would be Grudge, but just because that was the last one that i saw, I seem to be diggin' mid-evil/fantasy like Lord of the Rings and Eragon, Love stories would be Some Kind Of Wonderful and A Walk to Remember. I'm kind-of-a sucker for a good love story, but dont tell anyone.

Television:

House (Man that guy is hilarious), Dirty Jobs (He's super funny too), The Office (Who isn't watching that?), Earl, Scrubs, Survivor Man and Man Vs. Wild, Law and Order (I know, i'm gay), Myth-Busters, Any thing on the ocean or space.

Books:

Bible, beyond that i'm not much of a reader, even though people LOVE giving me books to read. But watch out for the book of "Opinions" people love quoting from that one

Heroes:

Did you ever know that you're my hero, You're everyting i wish i could be.........sorry, saw that word and the song popped into my head
