Hi, as the introductory line dictates, I am Josef. Josef Rhys to be more precise. Let's see, my birthday is on May 7th and I'm currently 16. A fine age indeed! I live in the terrors of Florida heat, haha, but hopefully will be fortunate enough to escape to New Jersey where I aspire to attend Princeton University. I believe I shall be studying theology. *Nods* Yes, yes. Theology.

Hm, I'm not much of a novelist myself. Though I may post stories with this account from time to time, I'm more of a poet. *Shrugs* But I suppose stories allow for a certain character development which isn't half bad. Plus, I get a kick out of internal conflict. You'll probably see that a lot in my stories. Oh yes...yes you will.

What else can I say? Favorite movies and stories I suppose? Well, my favorite movie is HAMLET because, as I earlier mentioned, I'm infatuated with internal conflict. Plus, the monologues are EXCELLENT. Major props to Shakespeare. *Grins* And today I watched THE MAN IN THE IRON MASK...wow, that was great; it actually brought tears to my eyes. *Sniffles* Then again, my girlfriend will tell you I'm a complete sap bag. I almost started crying when we were talking on the phone once about the misfortunes of manatees here in Florida. *Nods* I work in Sea World, lol, leave me alone.

My favorite author is Oscar Wilde. If you haven't read his poem, "The Sphinx", I highly recommend it. A very awesome piece of literature.

As for songs, my favorite love song is "Wherever You Will Go" by The Calling - which is the title of my first Newsies fic ever. And my second favorite is "Who Am I" by Casting Crowns. INCREDIBLE LYRICS! I'm always singing it when I'm once again amazed by God's love.

Yes, yes, I am a Christian and quite proud of my faith. But don't worry. I don't think I'm "holier than thou" haha. I respect the beliefs of others and appreciate the different cultures of our world. *Smiles* But at the same time, I'm not ashamed to profess my beliefs or acknowledge the man upstairs as my God.

And I suppose that's about the wrap on Josef Rhys. Thanks for taking out precious time to read up on little ol' me, enjoy your stay here in my world, and Cheers!

-Josef Rhys-
