About Me

Some people call her Hé Ré some people "H". Some people just plain Heather while others add the René. Her dad calls her Ralph...or princess. Her mom calls her hun. Because of all this she has identity issues... This is how she describes herself: "I would say I'm an introverted extrovert. Depends on who's around or not around. Depends on my mood (which is generally on the up and up even if I don't seem very chatty)." AND "I like to be crazy...wait, let me rephrase: I am crazy."This is where she has lived: Okinawa, Japan - Eglin AFB, Niceville, FL - Hanscom AFB, Boston, MA - Montgomery, AL - Hibbing/Chisholm, MN - St. Paul, MN - Nashville, TN - Los Angeles, CA (current) - where to next???

Music:

Music has to fall under one of three categories for me to like it: 1) Be Good, 2) Be Fun, or 3) Make Me Happy. But just because it's either good or fun doesn't mean I will like it. But if it makes me happy, then I'll like even if it isn't fun or good. Some of my favorites: Switchfoot Beach Boys Plumb Jason Mraz Rooney Paul Wright Kendall Payne Yellowcard Mat Kearney OneRepublic The Real SeanJon Jon Foreman Jack Johnson Soundtracks :)
