I've got like three books sitting on my nightstand right now...lol...I know, its weird, but its me. I also like to write. Hopefully, one day i'll have written my own book. Hopefully.

Heroes:

My parents: My dad for having more patience than anyone i've ever known, and my mom for staying strong every day, even though our family can get a little nuts at times. She's has more strength than anyone realizes, and I'm so proud of her for it. My brother: He literally keeps me sane at home. Though he gives me a lot of crap as well, I couldn't see my life without him. My Grandpa Mark: He died before I was born, but he inspires me to read and write just as he did. I hope to make him proud some day. My best friend Shana: She has helped me through so much this past year. I swear I would have gone crazy if I didn't have her to vent to every day. She is my right hand, everything a best friend should be. She's more than I deserve. I have no clue why she puts up with me. I give her so much crap about boys and family and my different crazy aspirations. I think i'm crazy but she continues to insist i'm fine lol. Shana, I love you dearly! Never change! And don't give up! You're so beautiful! You've got so much talent and a strong will. You're going to make it far in life. And then you can buy an expensive condo in L.A. and i'll come live with you =).................actually make that Seattle or Portland....I don't want to live in L.A.
