My Interests

Music is my largest interest. I love to write and play music more than anything else. When I perform on stage with the band that I'm in, it is the greatest high in the world with the lights shining on us and the energy of it all. I love it! Also, hanging out with friends and staying up late with people and going out. I love to watch movies and can't wait til Summer when I get to go out and stay out late with my friends!

I'd like to meet:

I would love to meet Bono and the rest of U2 in person. Also, if he were alive, John Lennon. They were both great figures of our time and great intellectuals as well. Also, I love to meet new people and people who make me think as well as expose me to new and different experiences and things.

Music:

I am pretty versatile in what I listen to, but my favorite genre is Classic Rock. U2 is my favorite band but my other favorites are Pink Floyd, Everclear, The Beatles and a few others.
I like newer Alternative Rock like Three Days Grace and Anberlin. But recently, I've been turned onto some newer music that I really enjoy.

Movies:

I love almost every kind of movie except for Horror/Gorefest movies. I love commedies, action, drama, and the occasional musical (aka ACROSS THE UNIVERSE!) Some of my all time favs are: Across the Universe, Spirited Away, Last of the Mohicans, Wayne's World, Yellow Submarine, The Wall and a whole lot more.

Television:

I have so little time for television nowadays with work and school but when I get the chance to, I really like 2 and a Half men, Family Guy, Aqua Teen Force, Firefly and most recently, The Office.

Books:

I love to read whenever I get the chance. Just a few of my favorites are Pilgrim's Progess, the Harry Potter Series, Darth Bane, The Hobbit, Ender's Game, Flashpoint and really gettin into the Wheel of Time series.

Heroes:

First would be my Dad for sure! He raised me as a single parent for 14 years of my life. He has continually put me first and has sacrificed so much for me. I know that as far as I go, he and I may disagree and not always see eye-to-eye but he will always love me and always be there for me too.
Second, would be my Mom. She passed away in 2007 but has such a strong faith and I never heard her ever utter a swear word her entire life. She lived through so much that I know and so much that I don't know and I know that as long as I live she will always love me from Heaven and watch over me.
I also regard Bono and John Lennon as heroes of mine for all that they did as well as some of my best friends. They are so strong and the fact that they are there for me makes them heroes to me in my book. I love you guys.
