About Me

Since my life has changed so much in the last few months I though I should update this section. I start with my desire to follow and know Jesus more deeply than I ever have before, not because I should, or my parents tell me to, but because he is who he says he is and I want to know him. My life is incredibly busy being a full time student studying Spanish and Education. I nanny 30 hours a week so have just strated taking ballroom dancing and Argentine Tango classes so that I have a fun hobby. I get to hang out with the 3 most amazing girls every week at the Hope Center and truly look foreward to that time. Most nights I am up way to late doing one of three things: 1) dancing with my roomates 2) talking to roomates or 3) eating with my roomates. We have wayy to much fun doing the most random things and have some pretty cool stories (ask us about the drug dealers at 3 am that wanted to come in our house (we live in the hood)). I haven't decided what I am doing next year due to the fact that me and two of my roomates decided that we want to travel all the way around the world for a year after college... so to do that we would have to stay here and save money. That is very tempting for me since I love other countries and have been to Mexico, Costa Rica, Bolivia, Mozambique, South Africa, and Swaziland (not the best experience). Anyways thats about it in a nutshell. OH! and I also LOVE (not like) LOVE ben and jerrys half baked and Hagen Daz Coffee Ice cream.
I created my own myspace layout using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!

My Interests

the deep things of God, travel, languages, teaching, outdoor stuff, cattle drives (i want to go on one some day), other people, reading, tennis, road trips, coffee, fire, the ocean, seeing the broken and impoverished cared for

Music:

Musica española es buena pero generalmente es dificil encontrar musica por el radio.

Movies:

Depends on my mood. I've realized that I generally don't like sad movies and love to watch those "feel good" ones. I love action movies because without adventure, love is boring.

Don't watch a ton of T.V. and when I do I'm with kids so basically children's stuff!

Books:

Compassion, Blood Diamonds, Poverty, The Jesus I Never Knew, Things Fall Apart, In the Name of Jesus, The Broken Body, Captivating,
