Blooming in a Small Place...

About Me

I am a senior in college, working towards my certification in elementary education. On the side, I ponder my significance in the world, what I am capable of, where I want to go in life, and keep those that I love close to my heart. I am also a member of Knights of Iron Stage Combat Team, and Rising Dragon Fight Team. Life is good.*NOTE*: I am happily engaged to my wonderful fiancée, so any messages regarding potential romance will IMMEDIATELY be deleted. You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy .COM's MySpace Profile Editor !
