"I'm the type of girl who'll look you dead in the eye..." My name is Farrah and I'm originally from Manila, Philippines. I was adopted when I was four to an amazing family!!! muah! I'm currently a senior @ Indiana Bible College. I am a crazy, loud, and outspoken girl who is passionate about singing, cooking, and jazz music...who loves to laugh and have fun. I'm a big family girl, a loyal friend, and a southern belle who, suprisingly enough, still believes in old-fashioned ways. My parents are seriously amazing. If people ask me if I ever want to find my "real" parents, I always reply, "I've already found them." I couldn't have made it through life without my brother. He's one of my best friends.
Anyone that knows me, knows that I absolutely hate talking on the phone (given the choice, I'd rather talk in person)...that I'm horrible at keeping in touch with friends (and it's nothing personal...I just am)...that I'm very much a homebody... that I'm a major neat freak!!!... that the Brad Pitts in this world dont impress me (I'll take Jim Carrey any day!)... that I worry...about everything...alot...like, abnormally...and finally, (drum roll, please) I hate change. Yea, some has been for the good...but I also hate crying...and I usually cry when there's something that causes whatever I've been able to adapt to to be disrupted, torn apart, destroyed, reconstructed, remodeled, whatever. Good, bad, or bittersweet...it all leaves a funny taste in my mouth. And, you know, sometimes, I wish I were the prissy, skinny, "never-leave-the-house-without-my-nails/hair/outfit-complete ly-perfect" kind of girl...but I'm not...to an extent, yes...but not really. But I admire those that have the money or the perserverence (for lack of a better word) to keep up with that! In saying that, I'm not the type that HAS to have only name brand stuff, like clothes for instance...I think people like that are ridiculous...if it's cute, it shouldn't matter what the tag says. I'm a pretty content person. I was never the kind of kid that had to have the coolest car, phone, electronics, etc. And I'm glad I'm that way. I hope my kids at least inherit that quality. ANYWAYS!!!
Singing is my HEARTBEAT. Other than Jesus and my family, it's one of the things that constanly keep me going and it's such an adrenaline rush (for me, at least!). I've been singing since I was 9 and I started writing my own stuff at 11. When I was 16, I recorded my first (and really horrible lol) album...and hopefully, someday, I'll be able to redeem myself with a better one ;)
Ok now, enough of the boring generals...I am the most flawed human being known to man. Though my mom and dad brought me up in a conservative home, I've had to learn a few things on my own...and, unfortunately, it was usually the hard way... which is why I have a hard time condemning or judging anyone who doesn't believe the same way I do. Anything wrong that I've ever said or done in my life is no reflection of my parents. They are the epitome of Pentecost. Don't get me wrong, I love this life...which is why I am still in church today...but I'm still trying to figure out some things on my own...and I've got alot more growing to do. I just realize that we all struggle with so many different things...and I can't begin to understand why anyone would want to just write someone off......and now that I've practically written a book, stay tuned for my next novel ;)
"I believe everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go. Things go wrong so that you can learn to appreciate them when they're right. ...and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."
