"God dispenses gifts, not wages. None of us gets paid according to merit, for none of us comes close to satisfying God's requirements for a perfect life. If paid on the basis of fairness, we would all end up in hell." --Phillip Yancey
Music
I am a HUGE music buff. I am totally on this Christian music kick. I actually have a huge problem with itunes. I can't seem to go on it without buying a CD :) I am always trying to find new artists that I like. Recently I have discovered:
Worth Dying For
Leeland
John Waller
Fireflight
Addison Road
Meredith Andrews
Needtobreathe
Skillit
Tenth Avenue North
Movies
in no particular order: Lord of the Rings trilogy, Matrix trilogy, Pearl Harbor, Monty Python and the Holy Graile, Pirates of the Caribbean, anything Disney, Fools Rush In, Troy, Rent...you know what? I just REALLY like movies!!
Television
I happen to own all 10 seasons of FRIENDS!! beyond that, I don't watch much TV. I really don't have the time that I used to have to sit and do absolutly nothing. I do enjoy CSI, Law and Order, ER, and other drama shows like that....
This is how I dance when nobody is watching :)
Books
I am just tearin up the good ol' Bible :) There is a LOT of good stuff in there. I'm reading the 5 Love Languages and I'm re-reading What's so Amazing about Grace?
Heroes
My best friend is my hero, well, as much as people can be heroes anyway. She has become such a strong woman of God and I have LOVED watching the transformation.

I am totally in love with my God!!! He is my strength, my refuge, and my ever present help in time of need. He restores, saves, forgives, heals, blesses, disciplines, convicts, cherishes, provides, guides, and LOVES me!!!! He is my constant source of peace and joy no matter what circumstance I face. His grace and mercy astound me. Every day, I seek to be more like him and to learn more about him. This is a process I expect I’ll continue until the day I die. I live in Monroe, Georgia. I relocated here last July. I am originally from West Palm Beach, FL and I think I was the ONLY person who lived there that couldn't get a tan. I teach 7th grade Social Studies and I love it. Every day brings new challenges, but I love figuring them out. God has blessed me with a FANTASTIC church family that I adore. He has placed several really strong Christians in my path that have really helped me to grow a lot in the past year. The more I look back at my life, the more I see how God has constantly guided me and protected me. Most of the time, even when things looked REALLY bad, HE made a way for them to work out for the GOOD!!!. I am a person who will totally love you for who you are. I don't get close to people easily but once I do, I'd do anything for you. I love to be around people who challenge me. I love to talk about history. As an unfortunate byproduct of my profession, I also like to talk teacher. I am silly and sarcastic. I love to play. I LOVE LOVE LOVE music. I have recently become a Christian music FREAK andI am getting myself into trouble on itunes. :) One of my favorite things to do is to drive with the windows down, the music up as loud as it will go, and just belt it out. I don’t think that people driving with their windows down around me enjoy my singing time as much as I do, though. I believe in the power of love. I believe in forgiveness. I believe in second chances. I believe in myself and I believe in YOU!! :)
I do not like profanity, vulgarity of any sort, scary movies, hyprcrites, driving in big cities, traffic, or people who are selfish, judgemental, materialistic, fake, rude, or cynical. Myspace Layouts And you know what they say about us crazy Norweigans....
