Music - listening to all sorts of different genres, playing my keyboard, dancing...
Reading - great books, or even not so great books. Reading gives you an opportunity to step outside of your own life for a while and delve into the imagination...
Writing - I have always loved to write. I think I am able to express myself better in writing than I am in person. Writing is one of those things, for me, that would be perfect to base a career around, because I would actually be doing what I love. Need to focus my energy in that direction for a while and see where it leads me...
Creativity - I love the explore my creative side. It has come to my attention recently that I am a truly creative person and that creative avenues are my true calling. I need to spend some time daily doing something creeative, whether it be sewing, quilting, coloring, painting, writing, or playing music... it is who I am and I cannot continue to deny that.
Mountain biking - There is something purely awesome about riding up a mountain and finding yourself somewhere where you can feel the solitude because it is so strong... you realize that you have come to a place that few people ever visit, because the only way to get there is by foot, bike, or horse!
Road trips! I absolutely love traveling, but especially by road. Yosemite and Lake Tahoe are probably my favorite destinations, but I am always up for someplace new, so definately let me know if you have any recommendations.
Learning new things - I love to challenge my mind with new ideas and experiences. It is so fulfilling to feel that sense of growth. Always looking for that next adventure!
Spending time with friends... either in person or online!
My best friend, Shawna & I - June, 2006
Honest, intelligent, inquiring minds...
People who will encourage my creative side... who will help it break free from hiding.
People who are on their own paths and journeys to find inner peace... who are using The Secret and the Law of Attraction to manifest their own destinies...
People who love to talk about music and bands and are always searching for a new favorite group or artist, like I am.

My brother Ryan... who as of August 25, 2006 is a strong soldier in the U.S. Army. I am so proud of him. He is currently deployed at Camp Taji in Baghdad, but is otherwise stationed in Baumholder, Germany with my sister-in-law Nicole and my niece Baylee. I miss them a lot. Please keep Ryan and all of our soldiers in your thoughts and prayers... it takes a very special person to volunteer to protect your freedom. Thank you.
