Site Recieved it's 3rd Award! Click for us to get a 4th!





On this page is information about myself, the creator of this site. I get emails all the time asking me about myself. So I decided to put together this page.
It has 2 sections. One about me & Jim and the other about just me & my interests.

For any further information that you may not find here,
please visit my personal website or my daily blog.

First of all, I have something to address.

It may seem extreme to have a whole website about Jim. I do not want to come off looking obsessive or psycho. Those who really know me, know that is not why I have this site. It is simply to pay respect to the man who inspired me to follow my dreams. I see nothing wrong with that. At least I am being respectful and I am able to have a way of saying thank you. Ya know?
But I also know that to an outsider who does not know me, it may seem weird or over the top. Goodness, could you imagine if Jim, himself, saw this site? I hope he would not take it the wrong way. I am not trying to break a 10 Commandment by idolizing him, that is not what my site is about.
First, it serves a need. People out there look up Jim's name in search engines and want information about him all the time. I provide them that. It also makes me feel good to know that I help people. They email me all the time telling me that I have so much information on my site and that I help them out with school papers, reports, and I even had an author of a book thank me for all the information she gained from my website. So that feels good to help these people.
But the site also helps me as well. It is my way of saying thank you to Jim for inspiring me to follow my heart and my dreams. It is like a hobby to work on the site. I update it when there is Jim news and that is it. I just wanted to clear that up so no one would be under the wrong impression.
Now on with the show.


Me & Jim
Name: Marissa
You're how old?
26 & I 'm a Leo.

Where are you?
Sunny Los Angeles, CA / Santa Monica, to be exact. I moved here 2 years ago.
When did you create Jim Carrey Is My Inspriation?
When I was in university back in 1999. I was a theater major with a minor in writing.

How long have you admired Jim?
For about 12 years. I know it seems wacky, but I do not see myself as a typical fan. I think Jim is funny and entertaining, of course. But I see Jim on a different level. I admire him for his hardwork, his determination, and how he overcame huge obstacles in his life to get where he is now. I have been through some situations that are very similar to what he went through in his past. So I feel I can relate to him on a different level then just the entertainment one.
It is very inspirational, hence the name of the website.

Favorite Jim Quote?
"It is better to risk starving to death then surrender, if you give up on your dreams, what's left?"

No, he does not. It is designed & operated by moi to pay tribute to the man who inspired me to follow my dreams.

What is your favorite Jim Carrey movie?
There is no answer for this question, it is too hard to pick just one.
