About Me

Normally I would describe myself as a mellow person; however, about 2 months ago I purchased a forclosed home and for 30 days after that went through the extremely stressful process of getting it ready so my roomate and I could move in all while working full time and going to school part time to qualify for the CPA exam. Needless to say, I have been stressed out and anything but mellow. But alas, I am starting to feel back to my normal, fairly mellow relaxed self.I love to entertain and have people over. I absolutely love cooking and especially barbecuing. I try to take it easy during the week because of the whole school/work thing but on the weekends I most definately like to go out and have a couple cocktails and maybe if I'm in the mood dance my ass off preferably to live music.Also, now that its snowboarding season, that pretty much consumes at least one weekend day per week. There is nothing like surfing down a beautiful mountain slicing through the snow...LOVE IT!!!!!!

My Interests

Cooking & Entertaining - Like I said before, I love to cook and preferable cook for others...it's just not the same cooking an extravagent meal for one. My best friend from Michigan just moved out here and we both share a love of entertaining, so I'm looking foward to our next shindig.Outdoors - Like so many exports from the midwest...I love colorado because of the great weather, mucho sunshine and mountains because I can snowboard to my heart's content in the winter and mountain bike,hike and camp in the summer. It just doesn't get much better than that.Art - Love to create..I used to be much more into drawing and then I discovered my love for color, so now I'm pretty much strictly a painter. Sometimes I wonder if I do more for the love or for the therapy because it always makes me feel so great to check out of life for a day and just paint to my hearts content.Yoga - As with the art thing . . . it's very therapeutic , feels incredible and oh boy am I flexible.I guess other then that, I just like to relax play with my cats (no I'm not a cat freak evan though some of my friends would probably disagree) listen to NPR (see television), throw tarot cards, read and basically enjoy the simple pleasures in life, sleeping, eating or just staring out my window.
You scored as Buddhism. Your beliefs most closely resemble those of Buddhism. Do more research on Buddhism and possibly consider becoming Buddhist, if you are not already.In Buddhism, there are Four Noble Truths: (1) Life is suffering. (2) All suffering is caused by ignorance of the nature of reality and the craving, attachment, and grasping that result from such ignorance. (3) Suffering can be ended by overcoming ignorance and attachment. (4) The path to the suppression of suffering is the Noble Eightfold Path, which consists of right views, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right-mindedness, and right contemplation. These eight are usually divided into three categories that base the Buddhist faith: morality, wisdom, and samadhi, or concentration. In Buddhism, there is no hierarchy, nor caste system; the Buddha taught that one's spiritual worth is not based on birth.

Television:

I don't really watch TV anymore...I used to be somewhat addicted to Television and one day I got so fed up with myself about it, I zealously threw out my antenna and haven't had "TV" in my home since. Don't get me wrong, I watch movies on occasion and throughly enjoy television once in a while at other people's houses or hotels but I just feel as though my life is so much more productive and fulfilling now. What I absolutely love and somewhat has replaced my addiction to TV is NPR. I listen to NPR at least a combined total of 4 hours a day. Good radio can be entrancing. It's so raw and simple compared to TV, just sounds, voices and music and other random noises put together in a way that absorbs you. Favorite radio shows include To the Best of Our Knowledge, This American Life, Talk of the Nation and of course love the BBC.

Books:

100 Years of Solitude, Barbecue Bible, Memoirs of a Geisha, White Oleander
