About Me

First things first... if you wanna add me, do me a favor and SEND ME A MESSAGE FIRST , OK? If not, you WILL GET DENIED , unless it's obvious that I know who you are/why you're adding me. Thank ya kindly. Now that that's outta the way...I'm a 22-year-old music addict. I'm a dreamer and a doer. I let my heart go where the music takes it. I travel far and wide to escape to the world of live music. Other than that, I'm a senior at Illinois State University majoring in marketing with a concentration on advertising and promotions. I got the internship of my dreams for the summer, and I can't wait! =)MySpace LayoutsMySpace Contact Tables

My Interests

It's all about the music. I'm permanently glued to my iPod. Peanut butter and chocolate are a match made in heaven. I also love sunrises, sunsets, flowers, rainbows, the sun in a pure blue sky, the moon and stars on a clear night, the way the air smells after a spring rain, and taking in all the natural beauty that God gave this earth.Please take the time to check out To Write Love On Her Arms. It's an amazing cause and does so much to help those afflicted by depression, addiction, and thoughts of suicide.

Feel free to feed Esteban. Llamas need their nourishment. I'm not always the best mom and sometimes I forget to feed him. Just click on "more" and click and drag the hay toward his mouth. Keep clicking until he eats it all.

I've been a fan of independent music for quite some time now, but Matt Nathanson is the one independent musician I've probably been listening to the longest. This is a video of him performing one of my favorite songs of all time, Sing Me Sweet, during a solo acoustic show at The Cutting Room in New York City on October 6, 2006. This video is not mine (obviously), but if it's yours, let me know so I can give you credit!

I'd like to meet:

Jesus. And the inventor of Miracle Foot Repair Cream =)Seriously, the stuff rocks.Comment on me here:
