When I grow up, I want to be me.

About Me

Here's the basics. I have a big family: four brothers and an older sister. I grew up a tomboy in Minnesota and Nebraska. I loved to play sports and still enjoy being active on nice days. I'm generally straight forward and don't often like to put up with other people's complaints. I try to be generous and polite with my time and possessions. There are two things that matter to me in my life: my family and my friends. I will do anything for them before I do anything for myself. Aside from not enjoying other's complaints, I'm usually easy going and open-minded but also have a tendency to be stubborn.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

My Interests

My main interests besides people are pottery, sewing, movies and photography. I also have a good time talking about cars (depending on the make and model) and sports (depending on the sport and team). I am a huge fan of Thunderbird's and Mustangs. I have also acquired a fondness for Camero's over the past year. My favorite sports team is the Minnesota Vikings, which means I loathe the Packers and everything they stand for. I haven't done any pottery since high school simply because I cannot afford a pottery wheel right now and would also have no place to put it. I do on the other hand take photos and sew on a regular basis. I'm not the best but it helps me pass the time. Since I like to sew I have taken an interest in DIY fashion designs within the past couple weeks or so.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone and everyone, but at the same time, I've met enough people. To meet more would just occupy more time I don't have.

Music:

What a difficult category for me. I love almost all music. There were a couple times when my older brother brought stuff my way that I didn't appreciate, but not so much lately. A few of my favorite bands at the moment are Aerosmith- always, I really enjoyed my little brothers band Beef of the Sea but they are no more and Eminem. I have a new fondness for the Weary Boys too. I like a bit of everything.

Movies:

Wow. Let's see here. Since it is simply impossible for me to name a favorite or even two favorites, I'll just list some of the best. Starting with Shawshank Redemption. What a brilliant movie. There's also The Young Frankensein, Boondock Saints, Ocean's Eleven, The Green Mile, The Goonies, The Newsies, basically any Edward Norton movie, American History X was amazing. The Incredibles, Monsters Inc., Ace Ventura, Seven, American Beauty, Heart and Souls, Radio Flyer, A League of Their Own, Hero, the Kill Bill set, Pulp Fiction, In Dreams, Groundhog Day, Eternal Sunshine on the Spotless Mind, Gunshy, Mary Poppins, etc. I don't even know where to stop. I love movies and I also love to critique them.

Television:

I don't watch T.V. unless it's Tivoed. I do set Sunday aside as my T.V. day so I can watch football all day. Then on Monday I watch football. And that was it until one day I was sick and I turned on the t.v. and saw this show Lost. There were two episodes on right in a row and I was hooked. I'm also hooked on Smallville.

Books:

I absolutely love the Harry Potter series! I couldn't tell you why because I definitely do not have an imagination. Maybe that's why I enjoy it.. I don't have to have an imagination, it's all done for me. I am also into the Dark Tower series by Stephen King. I started with the second one though and I can't bring myself to finish the first one before I read the fourth one.

Heroes:

Who needs heroes? Who needs role models? Why can't people grow up and want to be themselves?

Poor child

My five year old brother Rockwell broke his arm yesterday. Compound fracture, poor kid. He fell off the monkey bars at daycare. He's to wear a cast for 6 weeks. Feel sorry for the little guy.
