My Interests

I enjoy long walks on the beach, holding hands, the waves splashing at my feet...Wait. I've never done that (Edit: Now I have 3/28/07). Let me start over.I am interested in music, photography, many forms of art. I have two puppies which I enjoy quite thoroughly. I tend to spend my free time (what's that?) sitting at my computer, listening to music, playing in photoshop. I've finally started scrapbooking again (Woohoo!) Someday I will learn to play this guitar that's sitting here.

I'd like to meet:

I'm pretty sure you're awesome! I mean, you're still reading this profile...that's pretty awesome!

Music:

Here is an list of much of what I like to listen to and many of the CD's I have...please don't hold any of this against me :D Some of it's old and some of it I prefer older stuff to newer, vice versa...stuff like that. It's alphabetical...I'm a nerd. 50 Cent Trade Abbington Adelaide Paul Alan All American Rejects All Star United Anberlin Audio Adrenaline Ben Folds Five Bjork Black Eyed Peas Bleach Brandston Brave Saint Saturn Calamine Chevelle Coldplay Harry Connick Jr. Cool Hand Luke Cootees Copeland Elvis Costello Bing Crosby Daft Punk Dashboard Confessionals Death Cub for Cutie Hilary Duff The Early November Elvis Emery Five Iron Frenzy Fold Zandura Foxhole Further Seems Forever Ghoti Hook Goodnight Star Grits Honey Insyderz Interpol Chris Issak Jack's Mannequin Jars of Clay Billy Joel Norah Jones Joy Electric Juliana Theory Mat Kearney Kosmos Express Letters to Cleo Lifehouse Tony Lucca Lucerin Blue Mae Mandalay John Mayer Shawn McDonald Moby Mute Math MxPx N.E.R.D.

Movies:

i'm a teeny bopper at heart. i really like the stupid love stories and stuff. i'm a girl! i'm allowed! 10 Things I Hate About You A Walk to Remember Amelie Best in Show Big Fish Breakfast Club Bringing Up Baby Centerstage Ever After Ferris Bueller's Day Off Napoleon Dynamite Pretty in Pink Princess Bride Princess Diaries Sixteen CandlesDisney Movies!!!Veggie Tales!!!

Television:

I don't really watch much tv. I usually have it on cartoon network or disney channel. So sue me.

Books:

I really, really, really love Hinds Feet on High Places by Hannah Hurnard. I kinda collect it. Is that wierd?

Heroes:

God, our Father in Heaven. He saved me. He saved all of us. He sent Jesus to die for us. He had a very deliberate plan to have Jesus, His son, suffer an unsurpassable suffering on a cross so that we could once again be joined to Him (isaiah 53:10, romans 8:32, romans 3:25). He is the ultimate hero.
