My Identities

The things I consider my own identity.

What I consider myself as is what makes me. This is based on how I was raised, my interests, and how I was influenced.

Religious views: Christian- Assemblies of God

I was raised in an Assemblies of God church and still attend one. I got saved at around age 11 and got baptized at age 23 and will almost be the one year anniversary of my baptism. This means I believe, follow, and trust God at all times (faith). By joining Campus Bible Fellowship during my last three semesters of college, I have leaned more to the baptist denomination of Christianity.

Political views: Moderate- Independent

Although I am registered as a Republican, I consider myself an Independent due to agreeing with some Democrat views and agreeing with some Republican views. I pretty much select a candidate based on whether I agree with his or her views on issues along with plans and policies. Since the 2016 election I was leaning towards the Independent view of politics and there right now. Also I tend to flip flop on some issues and don't really have a preference on which party to join since I believe in both social/community responsibility and individual rights/justice.

Cat lover

I've been a fan of cats since I was 12. I like cats better than dogs because they're easy to take care of and are not as much of a responsibility as dogs. They are also cute especially when they purr and I consider them to be the most loving animals out there.

History guy

I've always loved history because I find it so interesting on how humanity shapes our society throughout the future years. I am a Binghamton University graduate with a BA in history (graduated December 2016). My common interests in history are 20th Century American History and 20th Century European History.

Music Lover

I've been a fan of music since I was a teenager. It helps me relax and keep me going throughout the day. My favorite genres are pop, alternative rock, hip-hop (old school, underground, and conscious), R&B, and country but like pretty much everything except modern day heavy metal.

Burger Guy

Burgers are my favorite food. Every time I go to a restaurant, I often order a burger with fries on the side. I like burgers because of the taste and you can put whatever you want on it and I usually put ketchup, mustard, and sometimes onion and pickles.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
