Creative writing of any kind.. I've been writing poetry since I was about 8 or 9 and I'm currently working on a book. Writing is theraputic for me and a HUGE part of who I am.. It is the only effective solution I have found for dealing with the heartbreak of life.. Drawing.. Music, Music & more Music..MUSIC ABSOLUTELY CONSUMES ME..I recently got an acoustic guitar and I'm teaching myself to play, Running, Church, Going to hear good local bands play, Concerts of any kind..I have a very diverse music taste so anything music related is fun for me. Reading and ALOT of it..I think I'm actually reading in about 7 different books right now - at the same time! Weird I know, but I have major ADD! I get more excited about going to Barnes and Noble to buy books than going to the mall to buy clothes..Pretty dorky huh? Watching College Basketball, Playing Texas Hold Em, And BEING AROUND PEOPLE WHO CAN MAKE ME LAUGH.. You are truly blessed if you can find just ONE person in this life that keeps you laughing continuously.. Someone who shares your sense of humor and can always lift you up in laughter..It can literally change your life and heal your soul..I will treasure always, the people who can bring me abundance in laughter..To me, there is no greater gift..
I'd like to meet:
DANE COOK - Because he is completely original & he has a comedy style that is totally unique and hilarious - I admire his climb to the top and his appreciation for his fans.. And he seems like such a grounded, genuine, kind-hearted person.. He just has that light in him.. its rare & its beautiful.
TUPAC SHAKUR - Because he was a creative genius and was way ahead of his time. Not only was he a phenomenal rapper but also a poet, an actor and a social activist. His passion for social change and equality inspires me still. If you haven't seen Tupac Resurrection you need to.. there was so much more to that man than most people think.
MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. - Because he had the courage to change the world for better when the task seemed impossible, and he did it with the strength and power of God. He set out to achieve the impossible, and he certainly must of known that he would die in his attempt. That is real courage.
ZACH BRAFF - Simply because he wrote, directed and acted in Garden State, a movie that I love for a million different reasons.. I'm just a Big Fan of his creative voice and I hope he continues to make movies for a long time.
MARIANNE WILLIAMSON - Because her books have completely changed my life more than once. If you haven't read her work - you must.. you won't be the same.
JOHN McCAIN - Because he has such an interesting life story. If you haven't ever read about his life, I certainly recommend it. He has been present for so many historical events. He must have great stories.
OPRAH WINFREY - Because she uses what God blessed her with to help others in need, and also because she is a shining example of where education, hard work and passion can take you.. no matter where you started from.
BILL MAHR - Because he is completely honest and I respect that.. regardless if I agree with him or not (I agree more than not).
JOB from the Bible - Because anyone who can maintain complete faith in such devastating circumstances has something to teach me.
Adrian Grenier - Because he is BY FAR the most beautiful man I have ever seen in my life.. And he is a great actor. His show Entourage is one of my favorites and I loved his documentary 'Shot in the Dark'.
