About Me

I am a worshiper. Not many other things can describe my hearts desire. I am a person who has made many mistakes, but somehow God finds use in making me clean again and again. I am never able to find much use of a negative attitude or outlook. Overall, I am very optimistic and would much rather be smiling than frowning. I love to learn and would rather figure something out, than have someone else do it for me. And if you're going to do it for me, you better show me how it works so I can do it next time. :) I don't believe in excuses, but I use them from time to time. Ha! I believe that people can change, but I don't believe they always will. I believe in helping the less fortunate, and I should practice that more often than I do. I know with all my heart that love never fails. I believe that the Spurs are the greatest NBA team ever! My favorite "things" are chocolate, Paris, Jeep Wranglers, and books by Randy Alcorn. I prefer tennis shoes over heels any day. Reruns of "Friends" still make me laugh. My family are like good friends to me, and my good friends are like family to me. I love to laugh, so if you have something funny to say, lets hear it!!!

My Interests

Music, Basketball (Spurs), Photography, Travel... I love adventure, but I don't do many adventurous things... I think I need some adventurous friends... :). I enjoy anything active... going to the gym, playing basketball, softball, football, tennis, etc. Bike riding is my new thing.

I'd like to meet:

All kinds of people... I think that every person you meet has the potential to make you think, make you laugh, or make you love in some sort of way... or they could make you want to move on to the next person. :) However, I'm not really here to meet people as much as I am to keep up with the wonderful people that I already have the pleasure of calling my friends!Get Your Own! | View Slideshow

Music:

Music has been a huge part of my life since I was born. I am a songwriter and play piano and guitar. I listen to Christian, Black Gospel, Country, Hip Hop, Pop, Jazz, etc. My favorite artists are LaRue, Meka King, Rascal Flatts, Dave Matthews Band, Micah Stampley, Jason Crabb, Israel Houghton, Freddie Rodriguez and many more. More than particular artists, I love good songs or a good performance of a song. A good song never ends. I can only hope that one day heaven will find delight in singing something that came from my heart.

Movies:

August Rush, 007 Casino Royal, Sweet Home Alabama, Hitch, MI2 & 3, Lord of the Rings, While You Were Sleeping, Princess Bride, and other chic flicks.

Television:

Brothers & Sisters, October Road, Biggest Loser, Greys, Private Practice, Men in Trees, 24, Friends, Sex and the City... Oh, lets not forget the presidential debates...
