About Me

~ I'm stubborn ... argumentative ... inpatient ... & a royal pain in the ass (just ask my husband). ~ I love to take pictures, the vivid colours, big skies, & the way light falls on an object & the emotions an image can evoke in the viewer. I love taking random objects & showing them in a new light, or photographing people but not posed, capturing some of who they are in the image. I see looking at a photograph as looking through the eyes of the photographer. ~ I'm a geek ... i own way too many books & collect cameras! ~ I love my husband more than i thought possible, he's shown me so much & without him i'd be lost. ~ I play rugby (forwards do it best)! ~ I love my friends & my family & miss them constantly. ~ I hate when people smell bad. ~ I believe in God but don't believe in mass worship. ~ I love history but believe it's how you act today that really counts. ~ I'm sarcastic & cynical as well as honest to the point on being blunt. ~ I'm not a morning person. ~ I love to spend time with my friends, a night out in a bar playing pool & drinking some beers (or whiskey), singing along to cheesy music. ~ I love to travel, getting out & seeing new places & cultures, meeting new people & experiencing the way they live their life. There's so much world out there to see, why shut yourself away & complain that the place you live in sucks. ~ I hate stupid people, try opening your eyes before you open your mouth. Why is it that people who consider themselves the most "open minded" are often the most "narrow minded"? ~ I'm a country girl. ~ I love chocolate, chips & various other unhealthy foods but hate it when people go into mcdonalds & order an x-large meal with a "diet" coke cause they're "on a diet"! ~ I believe that you should only ever tell someone you love them if you really mean it & that without trust you don't have a relationship. ~ I love shoes. ~ No regrets: life is full of mistakes but why regret what you can't change especially when it's these mistakes that make you the person you are today. ~

My Interests

photography ... rugby ... travel ... spending time with my family & friends ... books ... music ... movies

Music:

I love music ... have a huge collection & listen to most things. Music is how i remember things, for everyone out there in my life, all the places have been, the good times & the bad there is a song that reminds be of those moments in time & you can usually tell my mood from what i'm listening to.

Movies:

I love movies but have the attention span on a 2 year old so rarely make it through one at home. Take me to the cinema though ... there's something about the big screen, it's almost magical & the effect a moving picture can have on a group of strangers.

Television:

Myspace Layouts - Image Hosting - Forums

Books:

Too many books to list ... i love reading, being drawn into a whole new world & for that moment in time it's almost like you're there.

Heroes:

my husband, family & friends.the people who fight for our freedom & the freedom of others.
