Brace for impact, America

I want to sing, and I want people to hear me.

About Me

So I might be a little nutty...and the things I enjoy don't exactly match each other. But, hey, what can I say? That's me! I'm ALMOST eclectic. You see, I don't know exactly who I am just yet, but I am in the process of finding out. My best friend, Jesus, is showing me a little bit more every day. DISCLAIMER: I tend to be quite blunt.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

My Interests

I love my family (see my heroes). I love my Maker, YHWH. I love my boyfriend, Cody, who is a Marine, so I don't get to see him too often, so emo kids=shut up=you know nothing about pain. I love my best friend, Cecily. I love my friends. I love Cornerstone. I love the Asylum as well as my Asylum family. I love music. I love to sing. I am going to college to get my degree in music performance (vocal, to be specific). I am so deep in debt due to school that I nearly wet my pants every time I think about it...and I serve a living God that provides.Yup, that's my man right there! No jealousy allowed.

I'd like to meet:

Hear the song playing on my profile? Someday, I want to dance with YOU while it plays.

Music:

GOOD GOD-FEARING METAL. I mainly listen to Christian Metal and Rock from the 80s and 90s. Big hint: one of the BEST days of my life was Cornerstone '07 when I saw Whitecross, Bloodgood, and Bride ALL in one night. Holy canole, that was amazing. NO, I DON'T REALLY LIKE HARDCORE.

Movies:

No detailed sex scenes or direct tearing of the skin. I have a hard time watching Braveheart but one of my favorite movies is Troy, if that gives you any sort of idea.

Television:

I don't watch very much tv. When I do, it's usually a random movie that's on or a cartoon on Nickelodeon...or King of the Hill

Books:

The Bible. Other than that, not a huge reader.

Heroes:

First off, Jesus Christ, for saving my life. Secondly, my amazing family (see the picture below). Thirdly, the people who've gotten me through life are also heroes of mine. Of course, I can't forget Sid the Sloth! Ron Stoppable and his trusty naked mole rat sidekick, Rufus

My Blog

Let me try this again...

I blogged a few minutes ago, but I removed it.  I was speaking in the moment...All I can say is that I have to trust the Lord completely NOW.  There is no time left to wait around for me to ...

So Ive decided...

Yes, I've decided that Diana Damrau is probably one of the best I've ever heard/seen perform the Der Hölle Rache aria.  Her rhythms are right on as well as her pitches, for the most part she doesn't u...

To religion students and teachers

...and to those who aren't religion students or teachers, but to anyone who is knowingly or unknowingly prideful in the fact that their knowledge of the Bible and its history far exceeds that of the a...

Change

You know, it's cool to look at who I am now and who I used to be, and it's awesome to see the way God has changed me.  I look back and am almost ashamed of my past mistakes, even tho I've been fo...

I'm thrilled.  On Mastedon's "Lofcaudio", John is joined by Dave Amato, James Dean Longacre, and Tom Bowes on lead vocals.  I wanted to figure out WHO IN THE WORLD is singing lead vocals on ...

My name

Rebekah means "bound" and DeAnn (derived from Deanna) means "valley" or "divine".  Let's go with divine, in this case.  SO, I am divinely bound. :)  I'm a slave to the Lord, yet I am fr...
