About Me

CHRISTIANS
by: Maya Angelou
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'."
I'm whispering "I was lost,
Now I'm found and forgiven."
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need Christ to be my guide.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
And need His strength to carry on.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
And need God to clean my mess.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible
But, God believes I am worth it.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches
So I call upon His name.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner
Who received God's good grace, somehow!
I'm technically still a student at The University of Alabama, but I'll soon be going to online classes to finish my degree. As of late December, I'll be living in Largo, FL and I'll be transferring my job to another RGIS district in that area.
My social life is so sporadic right now I'm not sure what day of the week it is most of the time. I've got great friends and I love hanging out with them.
I drive a truck... specifically a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado. Its a great truck (for now) but one day I plan to upgrade to something bigger :) It will also have a cb radio in it soon enough (I already own it, just need a suitable antenna) My AIM screenname (tdpl2002) is actually "tadpole" and comes from the CB handle I've had since childhood.
If you ever see anything I've written/typed that seems like nonsense, read it backwards. For instance, NGISED means Design :)
Did I leave something out you really want to know?? Just ask me... I have one basic rule: You can ask anything. I just don't have to answer ;)
I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!

My Interests

New people and new places. I'm ready for some changes in life.

I'd like to meet:

"Voila! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is it vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished, as the once vital voice of the verisimilitude now venerates what they once vilified. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose vis-a-vis an introduction, and so it is my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V."

People with ambition and a drive to live. People who are like me in that just surviving every day that you come to isn't enough, there has to be more out there, and you've got every intention of finding it.

Music:

Live stuff, cover bands, country stations, burned cd's... music itself.

Movies:

I'm pretty open minded when it comes to movies. I love suspense and drama, horror, chick flicks, and the occasional sci-fi. Some of my favorites would be V for Vendetta, Saw, The Devil's Rejects, The Notebook, and Big Fish.

Television:

Doesn't really interest me.

Books:

I love crime novels and Christian fiction, as well as novels in general. I don't care for sappy romance novels, and only rarely will you find me reading non-fiction.

Heroes:

My parents are my heroes. I know this is very cliche, but I grew up with very little money, my dad was laid off from work it seemed every year around my birthday and Christmas, and never once did I feel at a loss. They worked hard for mine and my sisters' sake and never once complained about it. Without the efforts they put into giving us happy childhoods, I would not be the positive, happy person I am today.
