Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poke me in the ribs and cackle "you're next". They stopped when I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.

I love hockey (go Flames!), paintball, rugby... I love all sports. If I can't play it, I'll watch it. I really like art and photography, there is just something about a photograph - they tell you so much in a single frame. I love massage, have table - will travel!

READ THIS, IT'S SO ME!!
You Have a Choleric Temperament
You are a person of great enthusiasm - easily excited by many things.
Unsatisfied by the ordinary, you are reaching for an epic, extraordinary life.
You want the best. The best life. The best love. The best reputation.
You posses a sharp and keen intellect. Your mind is your primary weapon.
Strong willed, nothing can keep you down. Your energy can break down any wall.
You're an instantly passionate person - and this passion gives you an intoxicating power over others.
At your worst, you are a narcissist. Full of yourself and even proud of your faults.
Stubborn and opinionated, you know what you think is right. End of discussion.
A bit of a misanthrope, you often see others as weak, ignorant, and inferior.
Your mind is a firestorm - full of intensity.
Your thoughts may seem scattered to you most of the time...
But they often seem strong and passionate to those around you.
You are a natural influencer. The thoughts you share are very powerful and persuading.
Ray LaMontagne is my newest fave.. you should take a listen to him... also: Death Cab For Cutie, Weezer, Depeche Mode, Deftones, Marcy Playground, Cake, DMB, Third Day, Big & Rich, Brooks & Dunn, Foo Fighters, Chevelle, Smashing Pumpkins, Red Hot Chile Peppers, No Doubt, Fall Out Boy, Skillet, Stellar Kart, Kutless, Falling Up, Radiohead, She Wants Revenge, My Chemical Romance... there are so many more bands. I love music, every minute of my day is filled with some sort. I should make a sound track of my life!! Man I could sell records!
Movies
TOMBSTONE, The Departed, Fight Club, Braveheart, Gladiator, Ladder 49, Rudy, Any Given Sunday, The Notebook, anything from Quintin Tarentino - hes brilliant, Silence of the Lamb, The Godfather Movies, Baseketball, Office Space, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Chasing Amy, Dogma, Clerks, Team America, I could go on and on... when I can think of more I'll post 'em
Television
Anything on discovery or history channel. I really don't watch a lot of TV, just a few shows I like to catch once in a while.
Books
I am reading 12 books right now... if I could name them all I would... but just the fact that I am reading 12 at once is a feat in and of itself!
Heroes
I don't really hold any people up as heros. But I do have a few people who have inspired me to become better. Jesus Christ, my Savior. Barb & Dave Wilber have been amazing mentors and I don't know what I would have done without them. My sisters, they are all amazing in their own ways and I can't wait to see what they all become. My mom is pretty amazing, she has put up with so much and never seems to show signs of wearing down. My father... what can I say? He has inspired me to change and be a better person.
I have lived a life that could make my biography a best seller. Many different and interesting experiences; some good, some horrible; all made me grow into the beautiful woman of God that I am today. God has had His hand in my life since I can remember, I have not always lived for Christ but I strive to do that every day now. Recently my life went through a lot of changes and God has given all the blessings he promised when I started obeying. Almost instantly! I have made more time to devote to God, ministry and to friendships. God is showing me what it means every day to rely on Him for everything. It is one of the hardest lessons I have ever been taught and I think it will take the longest to fully grasp. God has taken me from some pretty low places in life and I cannot wait to see what He has next for me. God has been revealing a vision for a ministry over the past few years and I cannot wait to see the vision realized.
I have so many dreams and goals and I cannot wait to accomplish all of them! I want to travel to Spain, Prague, Florence, Milan, Venice, Paris, Rome, Brazil, Scotland… so many places I can't list them here. I want to see the fashion shows and photograph the models. I want to know the designers and have them know me. I want to have a home in Italy, one in NYC and one in LA. Yes that may sound silly but I think I can attain anything I want.
I was a gymnast once and I will get back to perfect shape again soon – I will be posting blogs and pics of my progress soon (when I can stand to show those to people)!
I am pretty random, I love people (sometimes its hard but I try!), I love sports – paintball is life - and am a huge tom boy - I love hanging with my guys. I'll do anything for them.
Anyway, this is way too long. If you want to know more about me, read my blogs or message me on yahoo (katecphotography1).
Below are some things that inspire me to change who I am for the better.
I am a new creation in Christ – II Cor. 5:17
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our
light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves,
'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually,
who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small
does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant
to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of
God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people
permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our
presence automatically liberates others.”
-Marianne Williamson
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me"
Philippians 4:13
"I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one."
-Maya Angelou
Christians - By Maya Angelou
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'."
I'm whispering "I was lost,
Now I'm found and forgiven."
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need Christ to be my guide.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
And need His strength to carry on.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
And need God to clean my mess.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible
But, God believes I am worth it.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches
So I call upon His name.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner
Who received God's good grace, somehow!

"...learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I wont lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you..." Matthew 11:28-30 (The Message)
"If a man withdraws his mind from the love of beauty, and applies it as sincerely to the love of the virtuous; if, in serving his parents, he can exert his utmost strength; if, in serving his prince, he can devote his life; if in his intercourse with his friends, his words are sincere - although men say that he has not learned, I will certainly say that he has. "
-Confucius
