About Me

I'm from a little town in a big state called Wasilla, Alaska. I was born and raised up there and moved to Anchorage right after high school. You would think someone born in Alaska would get used to the cold, well I never did. I moved to New Jersey where my dad's family is located and decided to make something of my life. I finally went to college and I'll be completing my degree in nursing in May '09.I've been enjoying my time "down the shore" but, I'm excited to see where life will take me next. On to the next adventure! :)I love, love, LOVE to travel. In a car, in a boat, on a plane, on a train, no I will not eat green eggs and ham...wait...wrong story. Seriously though, I try to visit new places every opportunity I get. Sometimes those new places become second and third homes and I return again and again and again. (Y'all know who you are.) There are many places on my list and as quickly as I check one off another one is added. The big ones involve a passport and money I don't have. But I will get to Tibet, New Zealand, Australia, Europe, and Buenos Aires someday.Hmm, what else...I write, not very well in my opinion but, an artist is their own worst critic. I'll be posting poetry here and there and I'll let you be the judge. Words are my medium for expressing myself. It is my way of painting a picture of my life, of my trials, struggles, and my joys. Writing is my way of connecting to another human. Even if only for a moment. The words may not mean to me what they mean to you, and that's ok, I just hope they mean something.Hope you enjoy my little corner.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Open, honest, mature people with direction and people who have no direction at all.People who have something interesting to say and stand behind their beliefs.People to debate with, bs with, laugh with. Just people.

Blah

I'm ready for this part of my life to be over. Going to school full time and working 4 jobs just to keep my head above water has worn me way beyond what I ever thought I could do. Of cours...

Poetry

Back in June a dear friend encouraged me to write again. I picked up a pen and a notebook and let the words flow. Almost everything I write ends up in a journal on another site. Some...

Dust to Dust

Dust to DustI have no way to explain Why I must be on the move The winds of change are blowing Threatening to knock me from my feet Stubbornly, I face them head on Refusing to relinquish the past Thou...

Passageways

PassagewaysI watch the rain, As it ebbs and flows. Floods the streets, Swells my soul. I watch it pour, And I have no fear. Only a remembrance, Of not long ago. The lightning flashes. Thunder rolls ...

Hello again

I don't write here much, obviously, but I do write. I am a writer of poetry and random thoughts, of stories and utter goofiness. It is something I enjoy and it tends to be therapeutic.&nbs...

I sit here thinking of you and all the things I want to say. I don't know where to begin. I don't want you to feel guilty because it's not your fault. Not really. It's me. It's...
