About Me

"What about little microphones? What if everyone swallowed them, and they played the sounds of our hearts through little speakers, which could be in the pouches of our overalls? When you skateboard down the street at night you could hear everyone's heartbeat, and they could hear yours, sort of like sonar. One weird thing is, I wonder if everyone's hearts would start to beat at the same time, like how women have thier menstrual periods at the same time, which I know about, but don't really want to know about. That would be so weird, except that the place in the hospital where babies are born would sound like a crystal chandelier in a houseboat, because the babies wouldn't have had time to match up their heartbeats yet. And at the finish line at the end of the New York City Marathon it would sound like war." -JSF, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
I love Jesus.
I like nerdy boys & people who know me say that is predictable.
"I keep a close watch on this heart of mine..."
I think everyone on the planet should read everything by Jonathan Safran Foer!
I eat my vegetables, unless it is cauliflower in which case I pile it up on the side of my plate and throw it away because I really hate the texture....yuck.
The thought of cottage cheese makes me gag.
Making an impact on the world in any degree is important to me but sometimes I feel like it is too hard to do.
I get discouraged easily.
I love coffee I mean I really really love coffee!
I love my brother more that anything and I often forget to tell him.

My Interests

Genuine people, music that melts my heart, Jesus and good coffee.

When I do I think that I will pee my pants which will be pretty embarassing but I read that he is really good at the whole forgiveness thing.
