    About Me: I LOVE BOWLING. But, to pay the bills right now I am a paralegal in a law firm full-time and a photographer on the side. I have bowled since I was 8 years old. I did have to take some time off (10 years) because of lots of knee surgeries. I am now in my third year back and have actually bowled my first 300 in 2005. Ready to do it again. 2007 I saw a 290 game - stupid 10 pin in the first frame. Grew up bowling against some of the best literally - TJ and some others on the regional scene. Bowling JSBA & TSR was the greatest time of my life. I bowled my first Queens in 2008 and loved the experience and met a lot of great people. Realized at that point that this is where I want to be...I truly love that competition. I enjoy watching lots of sports and am a TARHEEL fan. I like the Braves, Panthers & Cowboys. I was the team photographer for the Greensboro Monarchs ECHL Hockey League for 3 years as well.
    Music: I enjoy all types of music from jazz to hip-hop. I like country music (except for that tear in my bear, crying stuff).
    Movies: I love to cozy up on the couch and put in a movie. I like most movies. Horror is my favorite.
    TV: I like most reality TV (I know that is pretty pitiful). I like to watch sports, movies, CSI.
    Books: Trying to read more books to increase my confidence level and motivate me to help me get to where I actually want to be in this game.
    Likes: Bowling, movies, photography, scrapbooking.
    Hobbies: Bowing, photography & scrapbooking.
    Heroes: My parents...Then TJ has always been a hero to me...I met Michelle Feldman this year at Queens and she is a really great bowler...met a lot of others and they have all inspired me to go after my dream.

    its been a while

    it has been a while since i posted anything...wow i did not realize how long...since October I have changed some things...I am just now feeling comfortable in my new equipment...I went from 14 to 15 pounds and got rid of all my old stuff...so i have had to get used to new stuff and trying to work on my timing now too...i probably should have waited until summer...lol

     

    But now, i am finally coming together for the most part...715 and 706 and a few high 600s...a 280 to add and averaging over 200 for the past few weeks...the other wednesday i averaged 221 for 6 games...i couldn't believe it...trying to make my book average 200...it has been a goal since i started bowling again a few years ago and have not achieved it yet...

     

    well i hope as we end the fall/winter season everyone has had a good year and has bowled well...good luck in the summer...

    Tough luck on that 10 pin. If you can follow up a 10 pin with 11 then you are, as you feel, right around the corner. I had 5 290's before I got my first...the first 3 times I had the front 9, I converted. If your string started a frame earlier...you would be celebrating a 300, no doubt.
