About Me

i love music and love to sing. music is what keeps me sane most of the time. i love coffee and wine... i haven't decided which i like more. i miss buffalo and i miss my friends. although i really suck at keeping in touch, yes yes i know. i'm trying to do better... hmmm. i want to travel... ITALY. i went to australia again this year. free trip to melbourne! i won a nerdy law school competition but it paid off with a week of partying and working hard!
i'm still keeping my eyes on the future...

ON LIFE...
Life, it's ever so strange
It's so full of change
Think that you've worked it all out
then BANG
Right out of the blue
Something happened to you
To throw you off course
and then you
BREAKDOWN...
It's just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
Slowly, accept that there's no getting off
So live it, just gotta go with it
Cause this ride's never gonna stop

It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along
My heart is full and my door's always open

We'll all float on ok...
Good news will work its way to all them plans...
Even if things get heavy, we'll all float on...

ON POLITICS...
"In the history of the nation, there has never been a political party so ridiculous as today's Democrats. It's as if all the brain-damaged people in America got together and formed a voting bloc."
"Today's Republican Party stands for life, limited government and national defense. And today's Democratic Party stands for ... the right of women to have unprotected sex with men they don't especially like. We're the Blacks-Aren't-Property/Don't-Kill-Babies party. They're the Hook-Up party."
