My name is Rebecca and I'm 31 years old.
I have 2 sons, 8 and 11.
I love my children and I think children in general are awesome. They crack me up and make me remember just how simple life is...until they hit 8 or 11 and start actually caring about how they look, what clothes they wear, and how giving them kisses when I drop them off to school is "embarrassing".

I am going to school to become an occupational therapist with a concentration in sensory integration to work with children on the pdd/autism spectrum.
I'm still only taking general courses, though. And I HATE school. I am HATING having to take all these d@mn algebra courses because I horrible with numbers.


I LOVE photography, but I still have a lot to learn about it. I don't get to get out and practice as much as I'd like to, but I love taking pictures when I get a chance.

Oh. Yeah. I should probably have mentioned that my name is Kimberly. I really prefer Kim though. Only my family calls me Kimberly. And anything other than Kimberly or Kim will get you a broken knee cap. Ask my friend Trey. I do not do cute nicknames.

Brian. 34 Years Old. Male.

B.A in History from Florida Atlantic University. A.A.S. in Computer Network Technology from the New England Technical Institute, Palm Beach Campus.

I currently work in IT. (www.1234micro.com) But dream of being a farmer again someday. (I was raised on a small poultry farm.) Hopefully will happen sooner than later.

Sparks19 is my wife and we have a beautiful daughter named Hannah. She is the light of my life.

As my screen name implies, I (used to) play hockey. Kinda growing old on me now. I just don't have time to waste dealing with the 30 year old juveniles who play in the "beer" leauges. So now I hunt, fish, target shoot, etc... My latest obsession is with turkey hunting. Those dang birds haunt my dreams. LOL

I spent some time in the Army. (MOS 19K20, M1 Abrams Armor Crewman.) Got to go a lot of places and do/see a lot of things. Not all of it pretty, but all of it life shaping.

Some type? :rofl1::rofl1: Don't they tell you? Or is it a suprise when you get your diploma.

Grads after they get their diplomas~
"what did you get?"
"oh cool I got electrical engineering"
"Lucky! I got civil"
"Oh crap I got genetic engineering and I didn't take biochem"

heheheeheh

My Name is Lisa, Im female. I will be 23 next month. I live in the the toronto area. growing up I lived in 2 differnt houses in Scarborugh (now named toronto), 2 in pickering, 1 in whtby and now in Ajax. So the GTA has been my home and playground all my life.

I have been dating my boyfriend Ryan since I was 18. No ring, no house, No living together, But its all in the works, and we are saving up to buy a house, as we do not want to rent. No kids, except for the dog and cat. Ryan calls them his kids, so I guess they are ours lol. Im sure we will have a few in the future. although Im not sure how many. 1 sounds like a great number to me. lol

never went to collage. Took me 6 years to finish high school. lets just say that "high school is the best years of your life" saying got to me, so I partied way to much, skipped to much, and just didnt care enough. So it took me 2 years longer to graduate. But the last 2 years of that I whiped my ass in to shape and graduated with awsome makrs at a awsome school.

I always wanted to go to collage. Just never did it. I cant ever decide what to take. When to start and where to go.

I'm currently working in a grooming shop. Being taught how to groom. I have been there since May. other then that I work at H&R Block for the past 3 years. great office people I work with, I lvoe them. They make a job fun. I just do customer service there, and thats as far into taxes as I want to get. I tried to coarse, but it was NOt for me.I lvoe animals and have always wanted to work with them. When I was 16 I was helping manage a 40 stall (plus 6 horses in field) horse barn. I LOVED it. But it was back breaking work and after 3 years I quit. Pay was ****. but just being out there after you cleaned all the stalls and taking a nice long walk along the pastures with a horse beside you ( I used to always take a horse named Pearl. she was olddd and blind in one eye and going blind in the other. would do anything you asked of her. so her and I would get the farm dogs and go for a nice trail walk together (I would lead her, not ride her) and she would follow me like a dog. loved her)

I LOVE being outdoors. Im a true city girl, but I long for the day I can live out in the country and not hear a car with some loud music blaring from it, a siren or just people in general walking by. Luckily, Ryan shares in my dream. although he wants property so he can build himself his own dirt bike track. so I guess i will hear loud dirt bikes, but hats fine.I love camping, hiking, boating, cottages, road trips. In summer you normally find me at the dog park for about 4 hours or so, sitting ona bench next tot he river just watching the dog swim, that to me is life. I'm a hermit. and do best alone.

When I do go out with my friends. I enjoy movies, hanging out or bar hoping, such a drastic difference from my hermit days where I dont want to speak to any one lol.

I can talk and talk and talk, and type as you can see lol

My username is a old highschool nicname I still get called. its from dating a guy who was in the army, and he drove tanks. So for some reason it was funny to call me tank (that and becuase I was 5'1 and 90lbs in high school, so tank was funny), and I love starts so tankstar just happened, and people call me that lol.

My name is Beth, and I'm 25 and live in central Ohio. I actually just moved to a new town where I work, and my fiance and I are closing on the new house TODAY. We've been living in the house since May but just renting while all this mortgage crap happened - such a hassle these days, let me tell you.

Anyway, I graduated from school in December with a master's degree in physician assistant studies, passed the boards in January, and started work in the emergency room where I've been since March. (Those 2 months in between were spent worrying about money while I waited for slow Ohio to give me my dang license.)

I'm getting married on May 9, 2009 to my best friend, my fiance Justin. I'm not very good at the whole "planning a wedding" thing and have had a pretty hard time getting into it, but now that I bought my dress I'm sorta getting into it now. It's just so expensive and I'm so frugal and all the nice things I want my wedding to be really cost.

That's pretty much it. I have 2 furkids, Sparky the cat and Maggie my puppy. Not sure about real kids right now. Don't really wanna think about it just yet but I suppose it might happen someday.

okay, my name is Susan, and I own my own business (see below) so I tend to always have pets on the brain, LOL.

I am 27 years old (how did that happen??)

I live with my best friend, whom I refer to as my SO because, well, he's like a husband without benefits. ;)

No kids, don't want any.

5 dogs, 8 parrots, saltwater and freshwater fish, 3 aquatic turtles, 1 tortoise

There's not a lot of non-dog or non-animal stuff I do... We do flyball (have our own equipment) and I am in my 2nd agility class with Popper, starting Merlin when I'm in the 4th class with pop pop. I own a street bike and a dirt bike, I absolutely love to ride both of them, even went to women's motocross school to get over my fear of jumping, and now I jump EVERYTHING lol. I used to be really into paintball back in the day before it got really popular, still have my 7 or 8 paintguns lying around. Now I'm too busy with the dirt bike.

i'm getting back in touch with my artsy side (see avatar) because, well, it helps my business. ;)

I love the outdoors, I love to garden, I love to just stay outside and throw a ball for my dogs. I love to watch movies, and I play guitar hero a lot...

err I think that's it.

I'm 16, currently a sophomore in high school.

Still living at home. No kids, no boyfriend, no job.

I volunteer with a local animal rescue - I love it, and hope to continue doing it for as long as I can!

Besides volunteering, in my free time I like to read, watch movies, and hang out with my friends.

No real plans for the future yet - just concentrating on the here and now, and taking it one day at a time!

LOL, well, I guess I should have said I'm studying pre-engineering. :p
I want to be some sort of mechanical engineer, but I don't know whether to do aerospace, structural, materials, mechanica, civil, etc. I'll choose eventually, lol.
