About Me

These are a few of my favorite things: Jesus, Church, reading the Bible, my amazing friends who I don't deserve, singing as loud as I can in the car or shower or my friends' ears, things that are pink, brushing my hair, my adorable niece and nephews, NFL- especially the Kansas City Chiefs, Wakeboarding on Lake Austin, Playing in my beginners soccer league, Diet Coke, Chipotle, Chuy's, Hula Hut, Fiorella's Jack Stack BBQ (in KC), flip-flops (I have like 104 pairs), Ice cream, Hammocks, my cats Angel and Tia, Laughing, Music-especially when I am singing it loudly and partially on-key.These are some things I do: Work, go to school, lead a service team at church, watch movies and play games with my friends, talk to my mom on the phone at least once every day; and basically just do the best I can to live a Godly life and live in His image.

Music:

Movies:

Some other movies I love are: The Crow, Carlito's Way, Steel Magnolias, Save the Last Dance, Office Space, John Wayne's 'The Cowboys', also John Wayne in True Grit, Blazing Saddles, Top Gun, Good Will Hunting, Waiting for Guffman, I Am Sam, The Green Mile, Bourne Identity, Big Daddy, Billy Madison, Oceans Eleven, Identity, Runaway Jury, Million Dollar Baby, Elf, Message in a Bottle, City of Angels, the list goes on...

Television:

I just got cable for the first time in about 6 years, and have discovered the technological bliss that is... DVR. So now I watch way too much tv- Grey's Anatomy, 24, House MD, What About Brian, and One Tree Hill are my favorites. I also like sitcoms like Seinfeld, Everybody Loves Raymond, Friends, Will and Grace, and How I Met Your Mother.

Books:

I love the Bible. Books by Jeff (aka Donald Miller). Redeeming Love, by Francine Rivers. A Shepherd Looks at Psalms 23. We are just beginning a Beth Moore Bible study about John, and I have a feeling I am going to love it! Since I am a student right now, I don't get much time for extracurricular books, but I have plenty waiting for me when I do find the time.

Heroes:

I look up to many people. My number one hero is my Grandpa Jack. He was probably the greatest example of a Christian that I could ever imagine. He passed in 93, but continues to be an inspiration in my life.

Some thoughts on taming the tounge

So we all have heard the saying "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all" and we all have even been the victim of someone who SHOULD have submitted to that rule.  And I think i...
