Favorite Quote:
Charm is deceptice and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord shall be greatly praised.
-Proverbs 31:30

"Who cares if you have two strikes? You still have one more pitch to make it happen."
-Coach Troy.


My life hasn't been the fairy tale
But it hasn't been the worst
I like free verse, my life is forever a flying song
Soaring higher than the treetops
Lower than the fishes in the sea
But one little detail pulls me back to Earth
And the question is: Do i know what i really want in this life?
Do i want to fly?
Do i want to slither around?
For i tell you, life is not your average waltz.
