I am here for Friends

About Me

I am me. I am pretty laid back unless you do something pretty bad to really piss me off. I don't like people telling me what I should or shouldn't do, or what I can and cannot do. In other words, don't try to control me in any way, shape, or form, or you run the risk of me no longer talking to you. I also hold honesty very high. If you lie to me, and I find out, then you also run the risk of me no longer speaking to you, because I'm nothing but honest to everyone. Other than that, as long as you respect me and treat me like you would want someone to treat someone you care about, then I will do the same to you. If you stay on my good side, I really am a laid back person.So anyways.....In addition to the pics I have on here, I have tons more from over the years... If you want to check them out, go: here. My old Yahoo! Photo Album. Enjoy!!!

My Interests

I absolutely LOVE hockey... I have season tickets to the Wichita Thunder...But when I'm not doing that, I love watching movies and tv, and just relaxing.. I don't go out to clubs or any of that stuff, because I don't really ever drink. And I don't like some of the kinds of people I've met when I used to go out when I *did* drink.I'm up for just hanging out at home with a good movie... I love spending any time relaxing whenever I get a chance (because I don't get much time to relax)...

I'd like to meet:

People who aren't shallow, aren't arrogant, aren't self-centered... Someone who is down to earth, and is okay with just being friends. I guess I'm basically just looking for TRUST-WORTHY friends. By the way, if you want to add me to your friends, please send me an e-mail also just so i know you aren't a spammer.

Music:

I like most kinds of music, but I really cannot stand country. There are a couple country songs I like, but i never turn my radio to a country station...There is stuff I can't stand in other music genres as well... But i like a wide spectrum of music... Right now, my favorite album is Daughtry's album, Daughtry. I can't say I like every single track on many band's albums, but this one I honestly liked every single song. Other than Daughtry, I can only say that about Evanescence, Linkin Park, Usher, and a couple Boyz II Men albums...

Movies:

I like so many kinds of movies its hard to say what my favorites are...I have a ton of DVD's.

Television:

I love TV. I watch anything from sports to movies to old reruns.. I really like a lot of shows too... House, Bones, One Tree Hill, American Idol, Smallville, Supernatural, Prison Break, Nip/Tuck, Family Guy, The Simpsons, King of the Hill, and tons more... I have a DVR so I catch up on everything I missed during the week on weekends... Oh and right now I've been watching a lot of X-Files and Angel re-runs.. :)

Books:

I love reading, except school books (on the rare occassion, i sometimes like reading those too). But I read a lot of Lurlene McDaniel books, although probably not many of you have read any of her books.. Right now I'm reading a book by the psychic Sylvia Browne.. It's called "Lessons for Life" or something like that.

Heroes:

Really great hockey players, for example, Patrick Roy (even though he retired), Joe Sakic, Brett Hull, etc for NHL... That's only a VERY short list... And my favorite CHL players from Wichita Thunder : Travis Clayton, Jason Duda, Ryan McLean, Sebastian Laplante...and one player I hope comes back to our league next year, Tyler Liebel. I heard he might be coming back to the Thunder next year! Actually most of the team I like a lot....Other heroes include: My grandma..My Aunt Kay and Uncle John.. The friends that have always been there for me... Chad's parents, Mark and Vanessa (whom I call Mom and Dad)...And my MAIN hero is...God.

My Blog

so this is what being happy is like...

Okay, so I know you guys don't often see my happy side.  The past week or maybe a little longer, I've been really happy.  The person who makes me smile more than anyone else, knows who they ...
