Im a 21 year old Firefighter/EMT for the town of Lunenburg MA, but I live at my aunts in Boston part of the time. A very big part of me is my Lebanese heritage, my family and my friends I just moved back to Massachusetts from Florida in May 2005 after being gone for four years, and getting my degree in Fire Science. Firefighting is also a really big part in my life. If you ask some people, it may seem as if its the biggest part. I've tried to change the last one to accommodate a few people, and it just doesnt work out...so DEAL WITH IT! Im willing to make new friends over this so shoot me an e-mail on here. I will tell you though, I am who I am so...if you want to see more pix go to:
