 I grew up in a house on a street called argyle in a house that was painted light blue with white trim. My brother and I made snow forts in the front lawn and played tug-o-war with our dog in the back. We even had a small sandbox for a while. One time I got really sick after eating blueberry muffins and I didn't make it to the bathroom. I threw up in the hall, right outside. It was the type of "hall" that really just held space between four doors to rooms. I was under 10 years old, I promise. My closet was over the stairs to the basement, so it had a slanted wall. Sometimes I would sit in there and lean on it. There was a big pine tree in the back and in the summer we had a little plastic-sided pool but it often had holes in the bottom from our dog and his claws. We also had a picnic table in the back and a red fence that matched it. Now I live on the second or third floor of an apartment building made out of bricks. We have two lions in the front to watch over the doorway. My walls are all painted white, but I don't mind very much. I like it, even. My ceiling has glow in the dark stars that have been painted over somewhere in the past. I didn't put them there, but I like having them all the same. I keep pictures on my wall of happy memories. Some are old and I have trouble deciding if I should trade them for newer memories. My past is what made me, but my present is what makes me. Think about that one. I wasn't trying to make a deep picture trading metaphor. I just only have so much wall space and would like to put up some new pictures. I need more pictures of my current time. Something to hold on to So, you actually want to know something about who I am, huh? Well, I'm about 21 and I attend classes at the University of Michigan. I've completed three years now. I don't know how many more years I'll be here. About 1.5 I guess. I'm double majoring in English and Computer Science. At certain times, I love both of these programs to various degrees. I'm a person about passion. You may miss it at first, but passionate is who I am. Writing is one of my more dominant passions and it sets me afire. I won this award in 2001 and that really helped me, because I'm not always confident in my writing, but now I don't think about it much. Maybe I'll do something else and it will make me feel better again. I used to think that would be getting accepted into the creative writing program, but it didn't happen. I love writing, but I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it now. I decided to still finish the english degree, even though my love for those classes is not as strong. I'm a very honest person, which you might not guess and I don't always portray right. I'm shy and also pretty quiet at times, but I've got a lot going on in my head. Plus, if I know you, I'll tell you. You've just got to ask the right things. I'm honest because I can't act a way I don't feel. I've hurt people in my past and I've been hurt, but that doesn't change if I'm willing to risk again. There are a lot of sides to me, but I'm probably just trying to be more mysterious than I really am. And you? say hey
