Pressure makes diamonds.

About Me

I recently learned that I need to work on projecting my inner strength. On the outside I appear to be weak and unsure of myself, but if you dig deeper you'll learn that I am strong and confident. I have to be -- I'm a mother and my children will learn from the example I set. Much like everyone else, I am constantly evolving. Although not much time has lapsed since my more immature days, the personal growth that I have achieved in this brief time period surpasses what time is "supposed" to bring. I have my children to thank for that. Good things don't come easily and I know that maintaining optimism is the key to success.

"Success is how high you bounce when you hit the bottom." -General George Patton

My Interests

Raising my boys, filling empty bellies, blogging for self-therapy, and feeding my brain.

PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN GETTING SWABBED. ..

I WANT TO REGISTER ONLINE!

OH, AND PEOPLE WHO ARE WISE ENOUGH TO REALIZE THIS:

"People are like diamonds: multi-faceted and complex. Depending on how the light hits one of our facets, the shine varies. Sometimes the shine is brilliant and other times the brilliance is dulled. Regardless, we are still diamonds and shine nonetheless. To base judgment on the gleam of one facet as opposed to the diamond as a whole yields inaccurate results. Myspace is just one facet of the whole diamond."

Hmmm..

Physiology is going to be challenging. Maybe it's because I don't have my book yet, but reading science jargon doesn't really adhere to my brain anyway. Reading helps a little, but I learn more ...
