About Me

hmm, where to start... i am a 24 year old midwest girl who's done her best to stay out of the midwest. : ) my attempts have taken me to north carolina, montana, los angeles, and nashville and here i am yet again in the land covered in snow. but the saying is true, wherever you go there you are. i have recently gotten married to one of the smartest, most talented, most compassionate, patient men i've ever met and we moved back to illinois to begin our life together. i have chosen to use this as the time to stop running from my demons, so to speak, and let it all catch up with me. the weather has recently turned and winter is upon us, everything is covered in white. every time i walk in the snow i am reminded of how life continues to give us a fresh new season. this is the first time i haven't hated where i've come from and now i can see it's true beauty. i am going to get the most out of this season because before i know it, it will pass. wherever we are, whatever we're doing, we should squeeze the life out of it because we can never get moments back. i've lost too much to not appreciate everything i have!I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
