About Me

Little blurbs about me:

I'm a college student, studying to be a teacher.

I tend to be very busy. There should more than 24 hours in a day.

Meeting new people is great, but I tend to be really quiet when you first meet me (in person).

I love music, and I used to play the piano and sing. Don't really do that anymore though. Someday, I want to learn to play the guitar... and maybe the violin.

My sister, Becky, is my best friend. I have spoiled my nephew and niece rotten.

Hammond, IN is really boring. I should move to Chicago or Indianapolis.

I love breakfast food, and would eat it for every meal if it wasn't weird to do so.

I am obsessed with makeup and nail polish, but I rarely wear either.

I believe that the batter is always better than the finished baked product.

I love to read. Most of my friends probably consider me a nerd since I read entirely too much.

I love anything artsy - museums, art galleries, poetry readings, etc.

I'm a huge INXS fan (since the age of 10) and I will find any excuse to bring them up in conversation. My friends all think it is annoying. However, I also am also crazy over other bands and like to occasionally bring them up as well.

My Interests

Music (playing and listening), makeup (love it), fashion (Can't fit in to most of it though), chocolate, talking with friends about nothing, books, travel, magazines, bumming around on the internet, things that are purple, flowers, writing in my journal, cooking, talking to my Sissy, spending time with my unbelievably adorable nephew and niece, learning about other countries and cultures, arts and crafts - especially needlepoint and cross stitch (Yes, I know it's an old lady thing!), and anything else that seems interesting at the time.

I'd like to meet:

Andrew Farriss - The man is a musical genious. I would love to just sit down and talk music with him. (That is, if I didn't completely freak out on him and do something really embarassing - like puke.)

Scott Hamilton - A very inspirational man. He battled a childhood illness to become an Olympic figure skater and win the gold medal. He has since battled cancer twice, but still remains positive about his future. How cool is that?

Music:

Rock/ Classic rock/ anything rock - especially INXS, U2 and Darren Hayes.

Movies:

Anything creepy and scary - I love M. Night Shyamalan stuff. Also, the movie Dragonfly (with Kevin Costner) is really good.

Television:

All the CSI shows, Criminal Minds, Lost, Rockstar, Project Runway, Cold Case Files, Ghost Whisperer, Oprah, all those ghost hunter/haunted places shows.

Books:

I am currently reading the "Canadian West" series of books by Janette Oke. I have also read her "Love Comes Softly" series. They are all very good so far. She is a Christian Fiction writer. Check out her website: http://www.janetteoke.com

Heroes:

My parents and my Grandmother.
