    About Me

    Born in So Cali live in Idaho. I am a 22 yr old with aspirations of a attaining a Degree in Social Work . I was accepted to NYU and will attend as I am relocating to NY. I am presently engaged to an Army Ranger, HOoAH. He's my rock even when his physical presence isn't so. He has been gone since January 18th 2006. Has volunteered to extend his tour twice and is due home this September. It's been quite the struggle. I've lost 3 grandparents, an aunt and 3 friends due to a drunk driving accident during his absence and yet he's been there for me. I am adopted by my grandparents and my childhood is lacking a reasonable level of normalcy but I've learned to move forward one step in front of the other. One day at a time and deep breaths. “If women are supposed to be less rational and more emotional at the beginning of our menstrual cycle when the female hormone is at its lowest level, then why isn't it logical to say that, in those few days, women behave the most like the way men behave all month long?” ~Gloria Steinem

    Interests

    I play softball, avid library goer, love history and current events. Water sports are a must. Would love to learn how to knit. Hope to sky dive one day before my end of days is upon me. Love books. One I am presently reading is "Thousand Splendid Suns". I also enjoy the author Joel Rosenberg. I am an Atheist, yet Religion is a big facination of mine. The ideal behind a persons beliefs and what the beliefs entail is highly intriguing to me.

      From HugsStopBlood Yesterday

      Thanks :) being a new mom is awesome. I love it, people laugh when I say it's not as bad as I thought it would be, but it's true. I love it, I just wish Giles was here to enjoy the first few months of the baby's life, that's my only real complaint.
