I live in Portland... not Maine. It's not my first choice of places to live, but it suffices. I'm a Christian, a college student, a kitty mama, a bookworm, unemployed but looking for work (like nearly everyone I know), a big sister, single and proud of the fact, and I like to write and draw, even though I don't do a whole lot of either; as well as play around with a camera from time to time. I'm a horse enthusiast, hoping to someday learn enough to call myself a horsewoman (but got a LONG way to go yet). I'm teaching myself French, slowly but surely; but my accent sucks. I grow things - mostly herbs and random houseplants, but I've got some kinda veggie growing in a kiddie cup right now that I don't know what it is... I want to be a therapist (I think) but if something else pops up that's more interesting I'm open to it. I have a driver's license... but no car. I'd like a car, sometimes, but then I see things like Portland rush-hour traffic and it turns me right off... I'm also well aware that I don't really need a car; I can get anywhere anybody else can on my own two feet or a bike. It's just a tad bit slower is all. I've been told I'm organized and good at time management, and while I have improved a bit over time, I still can't see it. I find myself fascinating... but nearly everything else much more so. I really work quite a bit to retain a kind of child-like wonder and positivity about the world in general; mostly to keep from ennui. It usually works alright...
