The Girl They Called...

ill!

Find out more than you'd ever want to know about me! (If you dare.)

Here's the page where I get to brag about myself. It seems almost everyone has a page like this in their site, so I decided to join the ol' stuck-up snob bandwagon and do one too.

(You're lucky I haven't scanned in my picture yet!)

Date of Birth: March 25, 1977 (That makes me an Aries.)

Place of Residence: Federal Way, Washington (Sorry, I'm not telling you my address!)

Immediate Family: (Mom), Paul (Dad), Marc (Brother)

Pets: 5 1/2 cats: Booter-Booter (She whines a lot), KC (He thinks he's part dog), Miko (Siamese brat), Hally (Miko's sister), Angel (Granddaughter of Twinkie, a cat I had who died of Cancer in '95), Squeaky (the name says it all...she squeaks). Also various other strays I don't exactly count as mine, but they do hang out here.

Hobbies: Web Surfing, Gaming (when I'm feeling violent), Shopping, Writing short stories and poetry, Sleeping, Photography, MIDI, Star Gazing, Acting

Occupation(s): Whatever the hell I decide to do at the moment! Leaning towards entrepreneurship.

Education: Graduated from Federal Way High School with High Honors, 1995; went to Highline Community College for about a year (<--Two words: THEY SUCK!)

Favorite Foods: Anything Italian, Mexican, Chilean, and junk food (healthy junk food, of course!)

Favorite Colors: Teal, Black, White

Fave Fonts: Moderne, Century Gothic, Catchup (aka First Grader), Comic Sans, Cuckoo, Intrepid, Mead Bold, Socket, Stewardson, to mention more than a few, and those cute lil' Wingdings!

Things I Like: Men, the Internet, Travelling, Sunshine, Animals, Foreign Languages, Music (U2 rules!), Money, Dancing, Malls, Acting (yeah, you gotta see my shameless plug), Astronomy (<--word of advice: don't take it in college), Beanie Babies (oh no, not another one!)

Things I Hate: Boys, the Internet, My Computer, Windows 98 (well, I love to hate it), Rain (yeah, and you live where, sista?), Staying home, Cleaning, Immaturity

Bad Habits: Swearing, Compulsively messy (just call me Oscar), Poor Self-Esteem (it is improving, though...), Talking too much!

Travels I've Made: I've been to Oregon, California, Florida, Minnesota, Tennessee, Texas, Nevada, Canada, and Chile (as in South America, for you geographically impaired).

Dreams I'd Like to Fulfill: Marry the man of my dreams, have a lot of money, own a Mercedes, live in a huge house I'd never have to clean, make it on Broadway, win a Nobel Prize for Literature, be happy and unselfish, and meet The Lord.

Other Odd Things About Me: *You can call me a 'Heinz 57', as I'm made up of the following nationalities (excuse my bad attempt at colored text): Irish, German, Norwegian, English (as in England, duuh), Cherokee Indian, French, Swiss (don't call me Heidi, either!), and Scottish. (Whew!)

* I take anti-depressants for severe Clinical Depression-isn't that just so nice to know? I get it from both sides of my crazy family. (Actually, I've gotten better with treatments and therapy sessions. Believe me, if I hadn't gotten better a couple of years back, well, I wouldn't even be here at all.)

*I'm also Hypoglycemic (Which means my blood sugar level drops very low at times, and I go into a 'Zombie-like' state until I eat enough to put my levels back up). It also runs in my family, along with tons of other allergies and such. What a great life, huh? (Anyone wanna come live it for me?)

*To add to my fun, I'm also a life-long asthmatic. I get to use all kinds of meds and a nebulizer (machine which helps the meds work better). In fact, one of my nicknames is "Wheezie Jefferson" (movin' on up...uh, nevermind!). But hey, I've only actually had to go the ER with attacks a couple times in my entire life! Cough cough gasp...

*I have ADHD! Whee! If you wanna know more, go to my page on it!

*I am related to J.S. Bach. My grandmother, whose maiden name was Bach, is a full German (uhm, duh!) whose roots can be traced to the famous composer (though I don't know exactly how at this time). I suppose that's where I get my musical talent and interests! I'm still working on tracing the exact roots, though.

*I am also related to the Country singer George Strait (he's a distant cousin of my mom's). Again, I don't know the exact roots. I don't even listen to his music! Terrible, huh?
