I am a VERY opinionated, fun-loving and outgoing individual who is determined and hardworking. I glory in helping others achieve their dreams while never forgetting mine or placing myself in a situation that is far more for me to handle.
To me, family is the MOST important thing along side with school and work. Always set your priorities first and planning for unexpected things are a definite. I am 1 of 8 children..most of which are steps, only 3 are related by blood. Our pets ARE part of the family. I have two quarter horses, Swabby (age 39), and Shiloh (age13), a chocolate lab. named Duke (age 6), and like 16 or so fish...that includes a mini shark..it's awesome!
I was raised around the belief that you can make yourself into anything you want to be and if people don't appreciate you or like you for being YOU; then they aren't worth the time hanging around.
Religion is a hard subject for me to bring up because it is my belief that if you want to believe or worship something, far be it from me to tell you not to. I might express my views about it but ultimately, it's not for me to say what one believes in or not. Personally, I believe there is a higher power..I am not sure if that prescence or being has a name such as God or Jesus or anything of the sort..I am spiritually connected to this being but I don't believe in going to a man-made place to worship a being when I am told that this prescene is always around you no matter where you are. I learn about every religion and I take from them what I believe should be followed. I also don't believe that churches and stores should make a profit off of religion. But that's just my view. If someone wants to hate me because I thinks this way then fine. I always tell people that I am open to listen to their VIEWS, but do NOT try to force me or tell me to believe, do, or act as something or for something I am not.
Life is what YOU make it!

General
I have TONS of interests. My family is a very traditional one and we pass down our knowledge to the next generation. Because of that I have many interests and I would like to share them with you. {they are in no particular order}
They are as follows: SPENDING TIME WITH MY FAMILY, baking[my most favorite], reading anything I can get my hands on, writing [fantasy/research/art], painting, drawing,  scrapbooking,  art in general,  carpentry,  horse back riding,  fishing, hunting(ONLY as a SURVIVAL training. I never ever overkill or take more than is necessary!), ski-bobbing( <---a raft pulled by the boat and you try to stay on) and water skiing, crocheting and knitting, sewing -by hand-, latch hooking (putting pieces of yarn on a gridded pattern to make a design), working in the community, etc....
These are just some of my interests that I can think of off the top of my head. When I can think of more I will post it. Thanks for reading my interests.
Dreams
My dreams....write a series of books about hemophilia and it's geneology...be the first person to incorporate American Sign Language(ASL) into a comic book...travel and study abroad, mostly in Japan...start an animal refugee for abused, abandoned, and disabled animals...help set-up career closets in schools nationwide for those teens who are considered "homeless," that way they can achieve their goals and have no excuses...finish my book about vampire, it's a romantic fiction/fantasy...and I do have more dreams, but I am already pretty full with these dreams right now, do I will just write my other dreams down and get to them when I finish these ones....unless they are easier then finish them first....It's always good to prioritize, ne?
Music
My favorite type of music is country, but usually I can handle listening to anything really.
