About Me

..i'm a simple but complex person (aren't all girls?) i love the ocean, but i loathe the beach, i love wind in my face, but i can't stand when it blows my hair in my face, i love to dance, but i freak when i have to dance in front of people...that's just me. i love, Love, LOVE Jesus with all of my heart. whoever i marry will just have to deal with the fact that they will be the second love of my life :) i play soccer and i've made varisty and played club and all of that, but secretly, deep down, i doubt my ability. i love dancing because it's my personal worship to God, i feel connected when i'm dancing my heart out to a song giving my Father praise. i love being random, but then again, does being random all the time constitute as random? or is it then standard? i want to be a missionary and people don't understand why...and i love that. i cry when i get frustrated. my favortie animal is a dolphin and my favorite color is the type of blue you see in advertisements for the tropics somewhere, the color of the ocean where you can see through the water...that color blue. i love middle eastern and asian design influences. i like to sew and bake. i've made two quilts and two dresses. i think it would be awesome if i could make my own clothes in college. i love baking and cooking in general. my fave thing to make is chicken fajitas. i learned how to make a real indian curry. one day i want to own a boston bull terrior (no name yet) and a german shepard named max. i love horseback riding, it's another time where i feel close to God. This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!

My Interests

.. I like to dance, play sports, sing, hang out with friends. I like to live life loud (my friends can attest to that)!!

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet a lot of people. I'd like to meet major leaders of the world and talk to them, find out what they base their decisions on and why they do what they do. I'd like to meet the founding fathers and figure out what was really going on in their heads when they wrote the constittution. I'd like to meet my dad's parents, one died before I was born and the other had alzheimer's and died when I was eight. I'd like to meet my aunt Diane. I'd like to meet my great-great grandaughter.I'd like to meet the world

Movies:

..When I was nine my favorite movie was The Lion King. Now, I really love Gone With The Wind. I like war movies too though. Like We Were Soldiers was totally awesome, The Patriot too. Old war moveis are good too, like Go For Broke. That was was awesome. Oh, and the only Clint Eastwood movie i like is an old war movie(well old to me anyway) Kelly's Heroes. Those are all great. For chick flick movies I, of course, have to say 13 going on 30. It's just so well made. I like Return to Me, Freaky Friday(the 60's version and the new one), Pollyanna, The Parent Trap(with Haley Mills, no offense Lindsay Lohan), the old Pride and Prejudice(with Lawerence Olivier) and the new one with Matt Macfayden and Kiera Knightly, Sense and Sensibility(with Kate Winslet), and a bunch of others I can't think of right now. I like Signs and The Village and Sixth Sense too. U-571 was pretty awesome(going back to the war movies). Well I think you all get the idea. Of course the 80's rocked with St. Elmo's Fire, The Outsiders, The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, and Ferris Beuller's Day Off. I also have to admit that i liked Doris Day's Pillow Talk....so of course i loved Down With Love....hilarious

Television:

..Gilmore Girls, Ugly Betty, Grey's of course I love Boy Meets World(Life's tough, get a helmet!)p.s. yes, i'm addicted to america's next top model as well....don't mock me

..I love reading. Books are every very cool. I love Pride and Prejudice, The Three Musketeers, The Count of Monte Cristo, Walk Two Moons, The Awakening, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Great Expectations, Lord of the Flies, Island of the Blue Dolphins, Where the Red Fern Grows, this series called the Chronicles of Gresham, A Seperate Piece, the Dee Henderson series about the O'Malley siblings, Medea, Hamlet, Crime and Punishment, and of course i read the Bible :)

Heroes:

..Jesus of course is my number one heroe. He did the unthinkable for the undeserving. I greatly admire my Muslim friends who must deal with a whole lot from people that don't know anything about Islam and are mean to them for no reason. I admire my sister because she stands up for what she believes no matter what. I love and respect my parents bacause they have enough patience to deal with me. :)
