Natae says the worst part is over.

Tri? Me? Oh, I couldn't...

About Me

I can't be without a goal.


I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts! Myspace Graphics

My Interests

God. Finding my purpose in life. Anything legal. Travel. Health. Distance running. The giant squid. The great outdoors. Dairy Queen Blizzards. Making art. The outdoor games. The Georgia Aquarium. Frisbee. Music. Tree-climbing adventure weekends. Dog shows. Reading. Body contortion. Laughing. Dinosaurs. The Circus. Thai food. Irish Wolfhounds. Dessert. Degrees. Adoption. Helping others. Being a well-rounded person. Living my life for God.

I'd like to meet:

You, probably.People who are motivated, open to experience, nonjudgemental, law-abiding, and let God lead their lives.Someone to run long miles with...and go to Climb Nashville...

Music:

Everything, really, well almost everything. I like it all, but am drawn to folky-alternative.Counting Crows are wonderful.I am especially fond of CAKE.

Movies:

JUNO, Sweeney Todd, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, Big Fish, The Shawshank Redemption, Memoirs of a Geisha, Man on the Moon, American Beauty, Fight Club, etc.

Television:

I am anti-TV (because there are other things I should be doing), but I have guilty pleasures... like South Park and The Girls Next Door.

Books:

The Bible, Man's Search for Meaning, Choice Theory, The Ultramarathon Man: Confessions of an All Night Runner, Memoirs of a Geisha, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption,The DaVinci Code, Forrest Gump...hmm...

Heroes:

People who live their life for God. People who try. Goal-setters-and-accomplishers. Health freaks. Endurance runners. PhD's. People that exhibit and strive for well-roundedness. People who are accepting of others always. People who have accepted life and find contentness. People who can quote the Bible. People who don't experience peer pressure of any form. People who follow Reality/Choice Theory.
