Favorite Quotes

To me, it's always a good idea to always carry two sacks of something when you walk around. That way, if anybody says, "Hey, can you give me a hand?," you can say, "Sorry, got these sacks."

-Jack Handey

Once while walking through the mall a guy came up to me and said "Hey, hows it going?". So I grabbed his arm and twisted it up behind his head and said "Now whose asking the questions?"

-Jack Handey

About Me:

I was born in Houston, Texas on Aug. 20, 1986. After graduating with 1,400 other seniors, I found myself at Texas Christian University dabbling in Advertising/Public Relations and Psychology.
I currently work six days a week at the 29 Degree Tavern in Fort Worth as a waiter. During the school year I also work as an account executive for the TCU Daily Skiff newspaper. My duties there include: managing multiple accounts with different advertising schedules, meeting with clients on a day-to-day basis and conceptualizing their print and online ads. I am happiest when I am busy, and an idle day is not something I am used to.
I am also a full-time student and need only one more semester to graduate. I am self-supported as I have paid for my school and my living expenses since freshman year. This has been a determinative factor of my success thus far. I prefer to work hands on. I work much better with a team than by myself. I like thinking outside the box and prefer to work late into the night rather than getting up early. I love every aspect of the advertising world, from account management to creative. The way I see it, as long as I am in the field in some way, I cannot go wrong.
I enjoy doing many outdoor activities including wakeboarding, snowboarding, BMX, basketball, football, underwater basket weaving, spontaneous ventures and the beach.
I am not easily embarrassed (I can do that just as well on my own thank you) or shy. I feel that everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and that it should be allowed without judgment.

Some things that I have learned in my life and found to be held true are:
• Time heals everything.
• You are not as poor as you think.
• Life is too short for grudges.
• It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.
• Laughter really is the best medicine.
• Your original mood determines the outcome of your day.
• Friends ARE family.
• The Houston Rockets and the Astros are the best sports teams of all time.
• Everything good in life is either illegal, immoral, or fattening.
• If everything seems to be going well, you obviously have no idea what’s going on.
