About Me

I love my friends:::::JoshuaKirstin:Allison and DanAllison and AshleyMaddie:Ali:Cody n Ashley: Crystal Bridget, Amy (Mama D) and Danny:Madison: Amanda, Crystal n Crystal:WillTammy TamzenI love to dance:I sing even though I do not have a good voice. Life's too short to let your bad voice stop you from beltin' out the lyrics:My PGP: Female. I don't drink/smoke, and thats my prerogative. I joined Americorps and leave for Maryland in January. I am a women who actually has curves, and I like them. I'm an activist for LGBT rights, I'm planning on going to school for social work so I can help as many people as I possibly can (I haven't placed one thing I want to do yet) I'm practically deaf so I ask people to repeat themselves a lot. I like music. I love traveling. I plan on moving around helping others for the rest of my life, I guess doing funny impersonations is my 'thing.' I'm scared of rejection, and pain (except only really when I think death is soon to follow) I THINK I'm super funny, I like to send and receive letters in the post, I don't enjoy talking on the phone (texting on the other hand is a MAJOR plus) I curse a lot, I laugh really hard for a LONG time at things that aren't meant to be that funny thus making it awkward for those around me (I can't help it), I'm very impatient... And stubborn I love post secret, My mom's my best friend, I love my family more than life itself, friends come in close second. I'd take a bullet for probably anyone I know.
