About Me


i don't like valour, it makes my skin crawl. i don't like touching it and i don't like the sound it makes. same goes for velvet. even that new fleece made from recycled plastic is pushing it...
raw tomatoes make me gag. give 'em to me cooked and we won't have a problem.
i get headaches from velveta cheese. and smarties, too. i dunno why, i just do.
i want a great dane puppy more than just about anything!
i love to travel and plan on getting good use out of my backpack and passport throughout my entire life...i've only just begun!
since seeing the great wall of china i've decided that i want to see all the wonders of the world before i die...
the great pyramid of giza in cairo, egypt is the only one of the 7 ancient wonders still standing, so that definitely makes the list.
the 7 new wonders:
1. chichen itza - yucatan, mexico
2. christ the redeemer - rio de janeiro, brazil
3. colosseum - rome, italy
4. great wall of china - china (check!)
5. machu picchu - cuzco, peru
6. petra - jordan
7. taj mahal - agra, india
the easter island moais were nuber 8, so i'll throw that in as a must see because i studied them so much in school.
other runners-up that i would love to see: acropolis of athens, alhambra, angkor wat, eiffel tower, hagia sophia, kiyomizu temple, saint basil's cathedral, neuschwanstein castle (check!), statue of liberty (sad that i've only seen it from the air!), stonehenge, sydney opera house, and timbuktu.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


the answers...

"i beg you...to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. and the point is, to live everything. live the questions now. perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live you way in to the answer..." - rainer maria rilke

"i wondered if that was how forgiveness budded, not with the fanfare of epiphany, but with pain gathering its things, packing up, and slipping away unannounced in the middle of the night." - khaled hosseini, "the kite runner"

yeah...i think that's about right...

My Blog
