Gender Female
Location STL, Missouri, United States
Introduction "Whatever You're doing inside of me, it feels like chaos but somehow there's peace. It's hard to surrender to what I can't see, but I'm giving in to something Heavenly. Whatever You're doing inside of me, it feels like chaos but I believe; You're up to something bigger than me, Larger than life something Heavenly."
Interests I'm random, I laugh pretty much non stop and I live life loud! And I'm very ok with that. I love Jesus, religion, psychology, tattoos, music, my amazing little cousins: Max and Sophie, museums, sushi, coffee houses, Cardinals basesball, hello kitty, old hollywood glamour, people who have a genuine love of Christ, history, good friends, my job, hair, make-up, Chicago, fashion, meeting new people, heart to heart conversations, good books and movies, learning new things. I'm striving daily to live my life with Him, which clearly means, I'm making some mistakes, but I'm learning from them. I'm on a journey and the hard but rewarding part is realizing that I'm not in charge of where it's going. So I'm trying to have faith and trust which can sometimes be the hardest part. I'm trying to live this life with Him because as Greg always says, "life is too short, the kingdom is too good, and God is too big."
Favorite Movies V for Vendetta, Fight Club, The Usual Suspects, Identity, the X-Men movies, anything that is suspense, The Break-up, Fever Pitch, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Mr Holland's Opus, The Pursuit of Happyness, The Notebook, movies that really parallel issues with today's society and that really make you think.
Favorite Music Music holds a very important place in my life; it's helped me so much to be able to delve deeper into His words and message and start to put into meaning the vast, beautiful, sometimes quite unfathomable, wonderful thing that is Christ's love. I really love Chris Tomlin, Onerepublic, Emerson Hart, Jon McLaughlin, 30 Seconds to Mars, Avalon, Brad Paisley, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Breaking Benjamin, Daughtry, Lonestar, Sara Bareilles, Sugarland, Ashlee Simpson, AFI, 3 Days Grace, Rascal Flatts, Carrie Underwood, Blue October, The Fray, anything broadway, including but not limited to: The Scarlet Pimpernel, Les Mis, Jekyll and Hyde, Hairspray, Avenue Q, Phantom of the Opera, Rent, Big River, so many more than I can name!! Hanson, Coldplay, Ryan Cabrera, Casting Crowns, Howie Day, Five for Fighting, Josh Groban, Ben Folds, Gavin DeGraw, Switchfoot, Nine Inch Nails, Green Day, The All-American Rejects, My Chemical Romance. I am pretty open about music I listen to a majority of contemporary christian, top 40, broadway, and country, but I will give anything a chance.
Favorite Books The Bible, Captivating, Hidden in Plain Sight, any history books, books about world relgions, psychology, sociolgy, politics, hair, make-up, and fashion through the decades!! Nicolas Sparks books, The DaVinci Code, Angels and Deamons, Harry Potter.
