About Me

Hey guys, i'm leanna. i've spent the last 6 months of my life trying to figure out what was going on and why i was alive and what i would be doing in the future. and you know what? i let 6 months go to waste. so now, i'm really just wanting to enjoy these seasons of my life. i realize that there are people who only come into your life for a season, so if you wanna join me, i'd love to have you around, but i know you might not be able to stay forever. i can't expect everyone i love to come on my journey. everyone has to go on their own. i love everything about my life right now. i love that god is still humble enough to speak to me and let me feel his presence. i love that i have been changed by Him enough to realize that he's not dead. that he still works miracles and that he still wants to show up here on earth if we would just give him the chance. i love my hippy parents. my dad was so non-conformist in his college days that he convinced 2 of his friends to create a fraternity and write their letters with sharpies on the back of their t-shirts. my mom and i went on a walk the other day and she started talking to a pine tree. they lived on a school bus for like a year when they first got married. yea, they kick ass. my sister and brother in law just had a beautiful baby, isabella andrea ("on-dray-uhh"). my brother is in the coast guard on the other side of the country and i miss him terribly.i'm fixin to start radiology school at baptist hospital and i'll be an x-ray tech in 2 years. i really don't know what to do about the fact that i'm going to have a grown up job in 2 years. my first instinct is to freak out when i think about that, but i have a feeling when i get that first grown up paycheck, i won't mind so much.

My Interests

LIKES: garlic mashed potatoes, storms, scented markers, every color except yellow, TATTOOS, the beach, how smooth my legs feel right after i shave, helping people, finding out more about the Holy Spirit, calculators, hearing people say, "man, i wish i had the nerve to wear that, leanna.", shoes, THRIFT STORES, rainbows, towels after they come out of the dryer, first thing that comes to your mind game, kissing, butterflies, when i get the last of the ice cream, finding new bands, playing dress up, putting on my make up like i'm a hooker (only when i'm bored in my bedroom), wal mart, ravioli, the smell of gasoline, singing, writing notes to myself on the mirror when it fogs up after i take a shower, popping every bone that is poppable in my body, boys who play the guitar, hair products DISLIKES: thinking about global warming, oatmeal, feeling uncreative, the thought of stepping on a frog when it's dark in my yard, death metal, golf, sucking at the guitar, dishonesty, the way huge scotch tape smells (it smells like vinegar), trucker hats, when people have bad service on their phones, cherries on clothes, skinny girls who say they're fat
You Have a Choleric Temperament
You are a person of great enthusiasm - easily excited by many things.
Unsatisfied by the ordinary, you are reaching for an epic, extraordinary life.
You want the best. The best life. The best love. The best reputation.

You posses a sharp and keen intellect. Your mind is your primary weapon.
Strong willed, nothing can keep you down. Your energy can break down any wall.
You're an instantly passionate person - and this passion gives you an intoxicating power over others.

At your worst, you are a narcissist. Full of yourself and even proud of your faults.
Stubborn and opinionated, you know what you think is right. End of discussion.
A bit of a misanthrope, you often see others as weak, ignorant, and inferior. What Temperment Are You?

I'd like to meet:

the monster under your bed. he probably isn't really a monster. he's just lonely.
