About Me


THIS IS NOT A CAUSE. THIS IS AN EMERGENCY.

http://xanga.com/missmelissa803

I am outgoing and hyperinvolved...but I am shy and guarded.
I love Jesus...but I love people who don't.
I see a lot wrong in today's church...but I affirm my loyalty to it.
I am a sorority girl...but I strive to uphold the values of a greek woman instead of just reciting them.
I like to go out and party...but I have never had alcohol.
I am confident...but I'm probably one of the most self-deprecating people you will ever meet.
I love music...but it is the source of much frustration in my life.
I am motivated to do great things...but I procrastinate.
I am pretty cool...but I am also extremely awkward and nerdy.

I am full of contradictions. Get to know me.
