Don't be afraid of the dark, that's when you shine

About Me

I loved TN, but it was time for a change and i've always wanted to live in sunny CALI. I LOVE it here and i love my job, which is a good thing....I work all the time. I am working on becoming a very successful producer, but for now I just work for one. I can't believe all the people I've gotten to know out here. I can't believe where life has taken me and can't wait to see where I have yet to go...but don't get me wrong...I am thoroughly enjoying the present!

..

My Interests

This category is a little strange I think, seeing how I go into more detail in the other areas, but I'll give it a shot. I love to be outside...hiking, walking on the beach, jogging, driving, everything! I love music and working with it. I want to see the world and have gotten the opportunity to do so...all expenses paid, but it conflicted with my career goals too much. So I'll have to make enough money to do it myself one day. I love hard work with a big sense of accomplishment at the end. I know, I'm a dork. I love reading outside on a calm sunny day. I love talking about dreams, goals, and smart stuff until the wee hours of the morning with smart people. I love visiting my mom and finding more and more out about her as a person. I guess that's enough...as I said, I'm a dork.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone out here in Cali from TN, Others that understand how demanding this industry can be...on your time, life, energy, everything!, and just some nice, NORMAL people!..!And this kid!

Music:

I listen to just about everything. I love rock, country, pop, world, classical, just about everything. I enjoy the good stuff from all genres, but I guess that's where people run into problems. Not everyone agrees with what I think is good. But I do have rather broad taste. I listen to everything from Muse to Celine Dion to Mozart to Etta James. I love Renee Olstead (what a true talent beyond her years), Michael Buble, Green Day, Big n Rich, Seven Dust, Metallica, Slayer, etcs. My selection is quite broad. But I guess that's good since I'm in the business of music!

Movies:

When Harry met Sally, Sixteen Candles, Breakfast Club, Butterfly Effect, Moulin Rouge, St Elmo's Fire, Shawshank Redemption, The Shining (the original), Chicago, Harry Potter (all of them), Ghost, The Village, Sixith Sense, The Ring, and many more that i'm sure I'm just not think of right now...

Television:

Gilmore Girls, The Apprentice, Desparate Housewives, Who's the Boss (comes on in the middle of the night), Complete Savages, Still Standing, Charmed, the Today show, Leno, Letterman, What I Like About You, ELLEN!!!....thank god for dv-r....I never have time to watch this stuff with all the commercials!

Books:

All You Need is Ears, The Mitford series, Rich Dad Poor Dad, and a lot of the really sappy girl stuff!

Heroes:

my mom :)And this guy
