About Me

i'm going to update this as i think of things.

♥ my name is jessyka. you may call me y-ka. please don't call me jess unless you have asked and i've told you it's ok. and the only person allowed to call me jessi is my grandmother -- who passed away in 1998.

♥ i have the best boyfriend in the entire world. he lives in holland, and i frequently curse the atlantic ocean for being so uncrossable.

♥ my pets are the best. i love animals and would have more pets if i could, but finances and lack of space make that difficult.

♥ i love to read and cross-stitch.

♥ dafodills are my favorite flower, but i'm starting to love tulips. driving around pittsburgh i see how beautiful they truly are.
