My Interests

I enjoy sculpting my thoughts through writing, sketching, and whatever I can get my hands on at the time. I also have a blast with my friends playing board games. CRANIUM ANYONE?

I'd like to meet:

I hope to meet someone who is open minded. Someone who isn't totally obssessed with name brands. Don't get me wrong I like good things but everything in moderation.

I guess I'm looking for a well balanced person with a heart of gold. I've been in love before. It's the best feeling in the world. I guess one day when the stars realign ill have it again.

I love my family and friends. I love people in general. I do what I can to make my community and thus the World a better place to live. There is still so very much to exerience in live and I'd like to have someone to share that with in only away a lover can.

Music:

I'm fairly eclectic in all areas of my life but more so in music. I go from Fiona Apple to Life House to Garth Brooks to Andrew Lloyd Webber in seconds. Whatever my mood at the time.

Movies:

Again, fairly eclectic but I tend to enjoy scary movies most of all. I prefer psychological thrillers rather than the blood and gore films. I'm always up for a good comedy or a love story. I also seem to have a thing for dance theme movies such as HONEY or Center Stage. Below are a few of what I consider my favorites of all time.
