<You REALLY want to know who I am???
I guess I ought to be flattered...
I guess I oughta tell you, since you seem curious. here's me: Born in Worcester Massachusetts, I spent a few years living in Oxford Ma. then moved to Springfield Ma. until I was around 6. I then moved to Wales, Ma. where I grew up. I really can't say I minded growing up in Wales--small town a million miles from nowhere, population around 1600--it did well for me. I loved playing in the woods everyday, and I'm glad I never had to deal with pollution or massive crime problems...I went to Wales Elementary school until 5th grade, then I went to a hellacious Catholic school for a year, where I learned to swear and listen to heavy metal. I went to Tantasqua Regional junior H.S. and H.S. where I met most of my really close friends. I ran cross country and track there for 5 years...loved it, still running! I love the outdoors, especially fall in the northeast, and winter either in the northeast or out here in Colorado...which brings me to where I am now. I attend a small technical school in Colorado Springs, Colorado. I am currently a senior, with all my hopes riding on two things: graduation and navigator school. The mountains out here are gorgeous...nice place to be. I have to admit that I actually like it here, despite all the pressure and stress--If I had to make the choice, I'd still do it...
I'm a Behavioral Science Major (actually Social Sciences with a concentration in Behavioral Science, but there isn't much difference), but I will graduate with a bachelor of Science degree since we have so many core science courses. I listen to all kinds of music...I put GWAR, Sting, Tori Amos, Pantera, Black Sabbath, Ozzy (after Sabbath), and Lords of Acid somewhere near the top of my favorites list. I do however, listen to everything from rap to ska, and even a little country on a very rare occasion. I cycle, run, rollerblade, read, compute, swing dance, mosh, and build strange things with various bits of wire and assorted broken things. I try to keep myself entertained, and it usually results in keeping the rest of the world confused.
My family PARTIES!! My family is very close; we're all My mom is cool...she's the kid of a minister who immigrated here from India... She keeps all of us sane (relatively speaking)--I have no clue how she does it. She's really neat, keeps me alive and sane from afar! My dad is neat too--his parents are from Slovakia and Russia. He has spent a few years in the Marines, Army, and Air Force--about 30 years of military service total; not gonna lie, he's a good role model, and a good dad. My older sister Tanya, has truly been my best friend since I was born. We're only 18 months apart in age, so we've weathered most of the rocky times in life at about the same time--except I get a little preview of it first, 'cause she hits it before me! She's just out of college with a law degree, and will probably make lots of money some day. As long as she's happy, it doesn't really matter... Holly, my little sister, is really cool. She's seven years younger than me, and she is about halfway through eighth grade....love those WONDERFUL junior high years!!! I really wish I could be home with her while she goes through this part of her life, but we all have our own paths to follow...She has great potential as a dancer. She's has been teaching dance classes for two years, and she's only 14! She's smart too--she's getting almost all A's...something I envy her for...she'll go far...
I had said my family is close...well, it is, sort of. My parents are in the middle of a divorce now. Not sure what I think of that...but then again, it's not my life. They are adults and can take care of themeselves.
Favorite music:
GWAR, Sting, Tori Amos, Pantera, Black Sabbath, Ozzy (after Sabbath), Lords of Acid, and just about anything techno/acidhouse
