Working out! Shopping with friends, or my sisters, or by myself! Hanging out with my family and friends, drinking wine with friends, playing Texas Hold'em! People Watching. Reading.
I am also a figure competitor (basically a feminine version of bodybuilding for those who don't know). I am the Arkansas 2006 Overall Figure Champ. I now compete on a national level. It is a great way to stay motivated in fitness. This is a video clip from the Figure Olympia, the Pro Version of what I do.
I'd like to meet:
Easy going, fun, non-psychotic people! People that are at peace with themselves, and don't stress out about what other people do.
WHO I DON'T WANT TO MEET:
"If you have a bunch of half naked stripper-like chic's as your friends...please go on to the next profile, b/c I don't have time for that. I'm not trying to help you in your collection of "hot" girls you wish you could have."Ashley's Flip

Music:
Songs that relate to me or make me FEEL something! Anything that helps me workout harder. Songs that make me want to dance and sing along!
My Ipod is full of EVERY type of music.
Movies:
I love going to the movies!!! So this is really hard...Gone with the Wind, ENCHANTED, Tranformers, ROUNDERS, Why Did I get Married, Titanic, The Saws, The Notebook, Apocalypto, Disney Stuff, The Holiday, The Rocky's, Ocean's 11, 16 Blocks, A Time to Kill, The Bourne movies, The Rush Hours(there so bad, but so funny), Tristan and Isolde...I'm pretty sure I'll be back to edit this section, I just can't think of everything right now.
Television:
Deal or No Deal( I always have to turn it though, I can't stand when they're stupid and lose everything!), The Big Idea, Jay Leno, World Series of Poker, World Poker Tour, etc...Cheesy reality shows like the Hills, Beauty and the Geek, The Bachelor. Ok, and I have a special affinity for movies on Saturday and Sundays on TNT, AMC, TBS, and USA(not in that order:). Oh yea, and I love that Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader Making the Team show.
Books:
I love to read, and have tons of favorites. The Bible, of course. It is an invaluable book to have (and read, and live). I just read Water for Elephants and it is AWESOME! I love Francine Rivers' novels. I also own about 25 self-improvement books(seriously). However, I only get to about Chapter 3 in any of them. That is about how far I get into it at Barnes and Noble when I decide I must buy this book that is going to change my life and all my bad habits forever! Then about 3 months later I will find where it fell under my car seat, still in the bag. ~Sigh~
Anyway, I'm trying Self-Improvment Audio Books now. I'll let you know how it goes when one actually makes it into my CD player. If I can't make it past Track 3, I'm going to decide I'm perfect and I just don't need self-improvment!
Many Nicholas Sparks novels, the Left Behind Series, Frank Peretti, and my 2 all time fave novels are Gone with the Wind, and Anne of Green Gables. I have read them both many times, and I still cry.
Heroes:
First and foremost, Jesus Christ, who as he promised has never left or forsaken me. My husband, truly. He has been there for me through so much, and never given me a reason to doubt his love or commitment to me. My grandparents for their patience with me through some tough times in my young adulthood, and for teaching me a different way of life. My Dad for showing me that people truly can change. He is wonderful. The Ballingers, my other family" for taking in some random young girl they didn't even know, and loving her. Virginia King, for truly loving the simple things of life and having a sweet caring spirit in spite of lifes trials. My sisters for coming through everything they have and being who they are. Any person who takes the time to make a difference in someone else's life. Thank you to all who have made a difference in mine, big or small. I hope I have let you know how much it means to me.
