Busy doing my own thing

About Me

You can find me working at the radio station, exercising, sleeping, going to church and trying to be "good". =D
You Are Surrealism
Dreamy and idealistic, you've created a world that is all your own.
It's very likely that you've either dabbled in drugs or are naturally trippy.
You are always trying to push beyond the boundaries of your culture and society.
You believe that art, love, and freedom can change the world.

Listening to Sirius satellite radio (my greatest sin), Discovering my Christian faith, Traveling, Reading, Shopping, Yoga, Hiking, Relaxing, Chatting, Astrology, Animals, Love/Relationships, Charity, Writing, Word Games, Psychology, Photography, Art Museums, Swedish culture, Watching Baseball/Hockey/Pro Wrestling, Occasionally venting in my personal blog http://perfectsa.livejournal.com

My Blog

Shrewd Manager

I finally went back to church after missing three weeks in a row. However, I will not be writing a new blog entry about this sermon because it was the same one from June. Seriously, you can read the e...
