It's a marvelous night for a moondance

About Me

I love my family more than anything in the world! Colorado Springs is my home and I love it. I darted off to the thriving metropolis of Haviland, Kansas and spread my wings there for five years in college. I had unforgettable experiences and made unforgettable friendships, but home eventually called me again and I came back to CO after I graduated. Then I up and decided to spend half a year in China to teach. China was awesome, but being home again is better and I will stay here until my restless heart bids me away once again.

My Interests

This is what Dr. Phil says about me: "Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical and always INTERESTING--" which is why this is in my INTERESTS section "--someone who's constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding, someone who'll always cheer them up & help them out." WOW, thanks Dr. Phil!

umm. . . I hate my boss

Oh my word, I'm pretty sure this woman has no soul. Around the office, a word I've come to know and love is "micromanage." Micromanaging is when a person--let's say a boss for example. . . better yet,...

Too many things

Only 47 days left in China. Am I living it to it's fullest, or am I so focused on when I go home that I'm missing out on things God might have for me here? I don't really know. I had a really cl...

Snakes and frogs

There is a guy that has set up his snake and frog selling business just outside the door of my apartment building. He skins them for you and everything (because they are definitely not for pets). If y...
