: About Me

I am an amateur. I've been writing for fun since 5th grade, but I've been writing as a way of expression and life since my junior year of high school.

I am working on my 7th life journal now. I wrote for my college newspaper, but since taking a semester off, I have only been writing on my blog and in my journal. I don't have a specific form or a specific flow that I follow. The worst thing about journalism is not being able to write what you want and you're put under forced passion. I have dropped the idea of taking a career in journalism.

My second passion is music. I do not perform, but I live. Lyrical expression is one of the most beautiful ways writing and music correspond. If I were to enter into the journalism field, I'd do music journalism.

I am a 20 year old sister, lover and friend. I don't eat brussel sprouts as far as veggies go. Fruit is open territory; I love it all. I believe in God and am the closest thing to a modern day hippi.

The week before Valentine's Day, I was told by three different guys that they wanted to marry me. That pretty much sucked all desire to get married from my mind. About ten days later, I started dating my current boyfriend. Here it is, nearly four months later and maybe it's my mood, but I've been thinking about this whole marriage bit pretty seriously. This is the main thought: I want it to happen. Like any other girl, I want to find a great guy who will potentially be an awesome dad and will be an amazing person, to both his family and friends. [Call me old-fashioned if those aren't the b...
