After much begging and pleading, I have decided to acquiesce to said requests and open a "My Space" account. Feel free to drop by and check it out or add me if you are a member. A word of caution to those that choose to link to the friends already added...They are a bunch of very odd individuals!


My tips are slowly being moved to my travel pages. In the mean time they may be viewed at the travel tips link below%s*

My travel tips

I was born in KY many moons ago in Stanford. I have lived in 3 different states, attended 9 schools before graduating high school, and have lived in 10 different cities and 16 different homes (some of which more than once). I like travel because it broddens my horizons and because I have difficulty staying in one place for too long. I have done several missions all over North America but my favorite was in Appalachia. My favorite colors are yellow and green, but due to an unfortunate skin coloring I never wear either. I am going to school to get my music thereapy certification. As this is a relatively new field, this is proving more difficult than I first thought (as only one university in the state offers the masters program). I sing regularly and have a "classically trained voice" (ie instructors beat the crappy stuff out). My favorite pieces to sing include "Angel of Music", "All I Ask of You", "In the Pines", "Don't Know Why", "Only the Heart May Know", and "Down to the River to Pray". I also play many different types of drums including set and hand drums. I am allergic to eggs and bananas and just plain don't like asparagas or lima beans. It is my goal to visit each state in the US. 34 down, 16 to go!

This is my pig. His name is Ralph and I think he is just lovely. You can draw your own pig to be analyzed and find out about your hidden self.
