Hi. So, you're at my site and you are actually reading the aboutme page?.. I guess that you want to know who I am then, right? Well, that is hard to explain. (I guess that I could start with a generic description.) I am about 5'2, have blond hair, and I love Heinz ketchup. I also happen to be 17 years old, and that means that more or less, it sucks. I am old enough to be responsible for deciding what I want to do with my life and how I am going to pay for my college education, ect, but I am not allowed to say, choose who I am going to associate with. Which, in my case right now, sucks big time. Six months ago, I fell in love with my best friend. That would normally be about the best situation that I could think of, but not right now... His family loves me and makes me feel welcome, but my family doesn't approve in the least because: he happens to be 24. Six and a half years separate us. "He is a grown man." I have heard that statement quite a few times, but I can't help it. No one chooses who they will fall in love with and who they won't. It isn't like I woke up one day and thought to myself, "I think I will date someone older than me to get a rise out of my mom and dad." So, I still see him and the entire town knows and my mom and dad talk about my "reputation", my future, and they say the word "no" a lot.

Besides my boyfriend, I am mostly preoccupied with college right now since I am senior in high school. I make rather good grades. (I have a 4.0 and an okay SAT score.) I might get a free ride, but I won't know for a while... One of my interests is music. I play the trumpet in the concert, pep, and jazz bands at my school. I also Cadet teach in the band department so I get to learn new instruments, conduct, and teach. I also like to listen to music way more than I like to watch TV and stuff like that. I like Beck a lot, but I listen to about anything, from like Garth Brooks to Alanis Morrisette. When I am not at school or hanging out, I am working at McDonald's. I work drive-thru a lot and it sucks, but like in American Beauty, I want to do the job where I have the least responsibility possible. (For right now at least...)

UPDATE
Hi! Well, here I am once again!! Only now I am 18, a High School graduate(thank GOD!), and moving to a city about, oh, 10 or 15 times as big as the one that I have known since birth in order to attend college. (I am a little nervous, but not too much! Mostly, I am excited.) My boyfriend is moving in order to be closer to me, which I think is a very wonderful idea! I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!! There are only a handful of people that think we are actually going to make it, but we will. I know that we will.

Okay, besides my relationship, I graduated 2nd in my high school class. I recieved a full-tuition scholarship. I quit qorking at McDonalds. (I had to move, so I will probably get a different job at school. I think that is about it! Bye.
