=Other Interesting Facts: I live w/my mom, Carolyn, in perhaps the most boring place around. It's ok though when you have a car and go wherever. My days of running around the fields though, are over. If it's exciting or fast, I'm all for it...
My dad, Anthony, separated from my mom when I was 1. They were together for about 5 years. I saw my dad when I was growing up, but my stepfather was always the one who was here (although he no longer is in the picture).
I was in ballet and tap dance classes from when I was 3 until 5. I was in Band (clarinet) and Chorus (soprano) in High School. They were my life b/c I love music...
I bit my tongue off when I was 2 b/c I was jumping on a bed and then I fell off & my jaw was forced up when it collided with my chest and my tongue just happened to be in the way...so I had a couple of stitches put in.
I got my first tattoo when I was 16, at Gypsy's/Silver Moon Tattoo in Hagerstown, MD. My 3rd tattoo (done Feb. 9, 2003), the moon and star, was also done there. I love her work. My 2nd tattoo was done Aug. 2002 at VooDoo Tattoo-it's on Duel Highway in Hagerstown, in the Foxshire Plaza. I went there with my friend. My 1st piercing (in my ear) was done when I was 2 months old.
I began swimming when I was 2 years old. My father just threw me in the pool and according to mom, she was horrified, but I came up and started paddling. I've LOVED water ever since.
The first boyfriend I ever had was in kindergarten, but the first REAL one I actually had feelings for was in 6th grade. He broke up with me the next year (@ the Halloween Dance!!). I was really distraught and hurt over that. We went out 4 more times during high school-we remained and still are great friends.
When I was 13 and in the 8th grade, my best friend and Grandmother, Marlene Custer, died. It really tore me up b/c I loved her like my mother and she was always here for me, but I never had a chance to say goodbye to her. Maybe that's a good thing b/c goodbye's a final thing and I have a feeling I'll be seeing her again one day. I had depression all through high school trying to deal with it and my grades slipped a bit.
June 4th-14th, 2001 I had the privilege of going to Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein, and Switzerland. It was through the German Club, that I was a member of for 4 years, in School. That was the greatest experience of my life, thus far. Almost all of my best friends were there with me. I definitely want to go back!
The first time I ever got high and got drunk at the same time was the night of my Senior Prom. It was an interesting night to say the least. And, I guess after that I just never wanted the partying to stop b/c after graduation and my 18th birthday, I left the house with this GrEaT guy (Danny)who had turned into my best friend. We were always together and I loved him. He ended up breaking my heart and sometime after I finally learned that My Family will always be here for me...no matter who else won't. Anyway, I came back home and have been here for a little while--trying to get back on my feet. I miss his friendship everyday though. He was a unique person. He was the best friend I could ever have. My first job was at a restaurant (where Danny started to work). ((UPDATE: I've been searching for Danny, but so far no luck. He's back into heroin again...and when he's caught, he's going to rehab...but, no one seems to know where he's at.))
