God loves us insomniacs better--He wakes us up just to hear us complain..er...I mean pray.

About Me

Quick update besides my normal fancy-schmancy bio - March 17th! St Patty's day, yo! It's going DOWN! The Ferrer's and the Morgans are getting hitched! I'm back from Japan and South Korea, and went to Paris over new years (ooh la la!) and have been getting my photography business up and going. (www.hillarymorgan.com - in the process of being redesigned. kinda sucks right now, but it'll rock soon.) Just got my first office a few weeks ago and I'm learning that there are a lot of forms with three-letter shorthand that you have to fill out to be legit. John got accepted to the PhD program in Philosophy at Southwestern! So, that's the dealio-yo. ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------- What do I look like on paper? Well, I hate fitting into a mold. I've never fully fit any stereotype and I don't plan to. (yeah... I was the nerdy cheerleader... go figure) I love God, but I hate when people use Him as an excuse to be jerks and in your face. I have too many interests so I can't really decide for sure what I'm going to do forever, which is probably was in school for so long. I think I'll go back again. Maybe for Marriage and Family Counseling. There's an epidemic, in case you haven't noticed. But that's neither here nor there. I love when people are familiar enough that you can just banter endlessly. I like being able to talk without words. I think dancing is the greatest exercise known to man. (except for when I get married. Then sex will be the greatest exercise - wooohoo!) I like to wear flip flops with dresses, and heels with jeans. I like Christians who have tatoos, piercings and skate or play in a band and love Jesus with everything in them. I love listening to my fiancee, and the endless wisdom that pours from his lips ---straight from the Holy Spirit, yo! I like studying people and figuring out why they act in a certain way. I like being a woman because we have comforting, soothing, healing hands. I like to love my friends and family in every way I can. I love when people are so much more than they appear, and I especially love it when they show me that part. I like making the people around me like my family and I love being goofy silly and dying laughing about something stupid. I love love love working and hanging with high school students and I hope I can forever. I love how excited they get about toilet paper wars and practical jokes. And most of all, I love shooting concerts where the artists are totally in love with the Lord and I get to worship by doing photography while they worship playing music and while the audience worships to the music. I think it is a little slice of heaven.P.S. John Ferrer is smokin' hot! (his second grade picture TOTALLY doesn't do him justice...)
