CURRENT MISSION

I'm ready to Learn! I want to soak up new facts, cultures, ideas & so on, like a sponge. "Never let school get in the way of your education" -Mark Twain

ABOUT ME

I'm a social, positive woman. I enjoy meeting new people & learning about new cultures. I love to ask questions & be challenged. Each morning I wake up healthy, with food, clothes and a place to sleep. I feel fortunate & blessed.

PHILOSOPHY

You are shaped by experiences so sitting still and not enjoying life's opportunities is the worst thing a person can do. Ignorance breeds hate & fear so it is important to learn about the people & cultures around you. Defeat can become a reality of the mind if you allow it's existence...so don't. Life is beautiful!

Muzyka, filmy i książki

MUSIC:...is a really elastic term...
I always hate answering this part because, as a musician, I could talk for hours on what I've been listening to, what I like/don't like & what I'd like to be exposed to. Music is my LIFE...literally, I will be making a career out of my love for music so, if you truly want to know, ask me & we'll have a huge conversation, I'm sure :D For starters, I am always prepared to listen to anything once...I have a very open-ear when it comes to tunes!

TELEVISION: The Office (US), Scooby Doo, Ugly Betty...not a big fan of the "TV" thing!

MOVIES: City Of Angels, The Departed, The Goonies, Shawshank Redemption, Some Like It Hot, What Dreams May Come, Saving Silverman, The Fall, Animatrix, The Usual Suspects, Se7en, Labyrinth, Pan's Labyrinth, Beauty & The Beast, Aladdin, The Jungle Book, My Neighbor Totoro, Gattaca, Just Married, 9 1/2 Weeks, American History X, Good Will Hunting, Fight Club, Slumdog Millionaire...

BOOKS: The Bible, Memoirs of a Geisha, Anna Karenina, L.K. Hamilton novels, Neil Gaiman's 'The Sandman' graphic novel series, Comic Book Tattoo, The Screwtape Letters, The Great Gatsby, The Outsiders, The Bell Jar, The Awakening, 1984, Night, Heart-Shaped Box...I also love Dr. Seuss & poetry (e.e. cummings & Robert Frost are usually nice reads)

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

Whale-watching :) If you've never been, it's humbling & peaceful. Also, I sing & perform for people! So being on stage, to me, qualifies as an amazing thing I've done/am doing.

Ucz innych, ucz się sam, udostępniaj

Texas lingo grows on you. Coming from a Californian (where the dialect is also very different), you won't realize until it's too late :) "Y'all" is an easy way to say everyone & "fixin''" is the lazy way to say you're going to do something.

I'd like to learn about any lingo, specific mannerisms (I should or should not do) & unique, exciting places to visit whenever I am traveling.
