I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Hey all, I was born during "The Age of Aquarius," and I am an aspiring on-air talent. I am determined to reach my goal before I turn 30, because JESUS IS ALL! "Be still and know that I am God. For I know the plans I have for you says the Lord...The Lord plans for good and not for evil to give you a future and a hope." -- Psalm 46:10 & Jeremiah 29:11I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

My Interests

I enjoy chatting on different messageboards dedicated to my favorite celebrities, I love reading, I love Bible Study, I love discussing my Christian faith with other Christians, I love hanging out online talking to the same goofballs I've been talking to for years, and I also love just vegging out on a Saturday night with a bunch of movies and popcorn.

I'd like to meet:

*Maya Angelou* *Britney Spears* *Jason Weaver*
