Current Autobiography:
My name is... Patti Ann Surigao M.
If you want to know who I REALLY am...Just Ask.
I am half islander (Actually Chamorro- as in from Guam).
All you have to do is add in a million other nationalities... mix it together... and you've got a...well... me. Haha. I'm living in the some-what lovely state of Florida, so my main interests here are the beaches and insane storms. I don't wish to be known forever as a "wannabe musician"...therefore I'll find an avenue to sing on stage and play keyboard sometime soon.
I'm more madly in love with God, than I will ever be for anything... or anyone else in this lifetime; and I'm not ashamed to say so. My purpose in life is to die being remembered as ~~Invisible~~...So that the reality of Christ was seen more visible...Meaning that what I do now and how I live isn't for any selfish purpose of satisfaction, acclamations, or comfort...but is DRIVEN towards a heartbeat so much deeper and awesome than my own. That when people remember how I lived...they will remember how God is. This is why my dream is to be in the ministry, because I understand that Christianity is so much more than a stuffy religious, family tradition...and it is FAR from the stereotypical game of mystical emotionality and hypocritical play-pretend of "goodness"...for which people make it out to be. It's a passionate pursuit towards Rhythm with that single heartbeat.
I'm a writer, a teacher, a photographer, and a thinker.
I'm me...and that's about it. ;)

wow, thanks for the nice compliments about my lyrics and music, that means a lot to me....sweet...haha as for the name....unfortunately there is no deep story....shortly after i moved to nashville, i went back home to visit the parents in NC and my dad gave me this picture of me in sunday school wearing that sign....and i thought it was hilarious...then later one i was thinking about how my name isn't that...i don't know...catchy...haha...or whatever, but i just thought that it was too awesome for a sign of a whale with "GOD made Sharks" written on it to go unused....so i decided that it would be the monicker i use for music i write by myself, but yeah its a real picture the sign actually says that and thats where i got the name...haha...but there is definitely deep meaning if you think about it hard, cause sharks are scarry, and GOD made them
