OK… So I’ll play along with this little game of tag. Apparently, I’m supposed to share 7 interesting facts about myself with you and then tag 3 other people to do the same. So, here goes…

(7) I was in a pageant my senior year in high school. During the question portion of the program, I was asked, “What season are you most like, and why?” I responded with “The fall, because of all it’s colors.” I felt that I was a well rounded teenager, thus the many colors of my life, but the question that I received most the next day at school was, “Are you multi-racial?”

(6) My favorite color is red. My mom says that I like it and want to wear it because I like attention.

(5) Music makes me happy. When I was younger I wanted to be a rock star. My first tape was of Lee Greenwood, and I loved to sing God Bless the USA at the top of my lungs in my room. Yeah… you heard me… Lee was my inspiration for rock-stardom. Now, I’m happy to jam to Corinne Bailey Rae, Frou Frou, David Crowder, Kelly Clarkson, Snow Patrol, Jack Johnson, and so, so, so, many more… it’s so difficult for me to choose a favorite.

(4) If I could adopt a talent and have any job, I would love to be a fashion designer in New York. Fashion icon I wish I was cool enough to imitate: Sarah Jessica Parker.

(3) My favorite movie is Under the Tuscan Sun. It’s my “feel good” movie. The main character (played by Diane Lane) begins with a devastating life change. On her quest to move on, she makes three goals. Although her road is rocky and she often feels as though she’ll never really get ahead, she realizes in the end that all her goals have been met and were beyond her greatest expectations.

(2) I’m looking for some good (not cheezy) songs for my wedding ceremony… any ideas to pass along?

(1) I was once told that I’m too concerned with greatness. Hmmm… that’s a bad thing? Colossians 3:23 tells us to do whatever we do with all of our heart; 1 Corinthians 10:31 tells us to do whatever we do for the glory of God. So if I’m too consumed with myself becoming great, I plea for forgiveness. I would hope, though, that knowing that God is great, I would be consumed with Him and making His greatness known.
