About Me

"That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past." Ecclesiastes 3:15"Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose." -Victor FranklI will try not to confuse the "About Me" section of this site w/ the "General Interests" portion, but in fact everything is relevant and most of the time redundant. So, I suppose that "About Me" is not actually determined from my perspective but from yours, the reader. So, make impressions on the unblemished scene, I am your ground, take root... I DEFY ALL LAWS OF GRAMMAR. I find symbolism in everything which is both creepy and oddly serene. I love everything about music.especially bluegrass and jazz. I love my saxophone.Selmer Series 2.ah.I love my mandolin(Christmas present from Josh-it looks and sounds gorgeous.)i like screaming while kicking my feet uncontrollably...that part of humanity is often neglected by happy people like myself...Poetry is my outlet, my refuge, i am but a tributary to it...I would have and be nothing w/out my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Because of him i have peace. and everything that i do is in love(cor.16:14)... I have a lot of acquaintances, but only a few well defined friends. i love a boy. He forces me to laugh, cry, kick, scream, smile, and love, occasionally all at once. His name is Josh(ua) Swift.He fulfills my "one guy kina girl personality" & makes me unindependent which at times I despise him for...JOSH IS NOW A MEMBER OF DOYLE LAWSON&QUICKSILVER!!!JOSH AND I ARE ENGAGED AND GETTING MARRIED ON JULY 24, 2008!!!!God really does answer prayers and recognize our patience. Josh is extremely talented, and i am glad he has found a career where he can put his talent to good use...i personally love playing jazz, traveling in my new vw jetta(RIP saab), playin cards, watching Madea movies...see my general interests section...the rest of my time is spent following Josh in the beautiful world of bluegrass...I have plans. I am attending Roane State Community College, which I can proudly say I am paying for independently, and then plan to finish up at TTU. I work like a dog at the Sonic Drive-In in Crossvile,TN...there is a season for everything I suppose...plus, the amount of money I make is surprising........It is a weird comfort of mine to always have some sort of a plan, so that the true spontaneous side of me has a stable foundation...Overall, I am very blessed.

My fears are furbies and moths.

I'd like to meet:

someone who can tell me why it is significant for others to know who I'd like to meet

Music:

is my life!(among other things)-I love so many genres and styles it is basically pointless to try to name all of them...I currently have been infatuated with bluegrass...Alison Krauss&Union Station,DOYLE LAWSON&QUIKSILVER!!!Mountain Heart, Keith Sewell, Blue Highway, The Isaacs, Randy Kohrs, Nickel Creek....and on the other end of the spectrum- Norah Jones,Gavin Degraw, John Mayer, Bruce Hornsby, Alicia Keys, Jamie Cullum, Joss Stone, Dave Matthews Band, System of A Down, Coheed and Cambria, Dead Poetic, Underoath, Mae, etc.etc.etc....just to name a few...(and I have an odd love for southern gospel)...alot of these artists are mainstream, but the not mainstream stuff I listen to you would be oblivious to....

Movies:

**I LOVE DIARY OF A MAD BLACK WOMAN and MADEA'S FAMILY REUNION**I love comedies of any sort(excluding extreme crudeness....i mean- stay classy)I am very liberal when it comes to love, although I tend not to show it, but I love chic flicks most of the time...Ever After, 10 Things I Hate About You, Shakespeare In Love, The Notebook, Finding Neverland, Big Fish, Moulin Rouge, anything Disney, Elf, Sister Act 2...I like movies that are innocent. I like movies I can get lost in.

Television:

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Gilmore Girls, The Cosby Show, Jacka$$, Wild Boyz, Viva La Bam...not big on T.V....I'd rather be outside.

Books:

I like controversial books...books that are from the actual souls of people...that's what's real, the hurt, the inexplicable miracles, the infatuations with detail...those books are good...I read alot...mostly poetry, most novels bore me...the B-I-B-L-E, that's the book for me...

Heroes:

Ronnie Bowman,Randy&Rhonda,Joshua Swift,Bill Cosby,Tyler Perry, Jesus
