I'm very chatty feeling this morning, hope nobody minds....

Writing
I write first, and foremost, because it keeps me sane. I write what's on my mind. My main characters may not be me, but they all relate to me in some way or another:
Cass and Liare both me. I can't explain Cass's thoughts before she confessed, because I didn't think before I confessed to my closest friend. And, now, of course many more people know, and I'm always worrying about it. But, worried isn't the right emotion for that scene.
"The Narrator" is me in a way. She describes the events of my life, and adds her opinions.

Languages
I speak fluent American, and pretty fluent English. In school, I'm taking Spanish, and can comprehend it pretty well, but actually speaking/pronouncing it can be a challenge, since the letters don't sound the same as English letters. I dabble in French, Mandarin, and Greek--for writing purposes.

Interests (Besides Writing)
I hope to one day go to Medical School, but that's turning out to be a slim possibility, due to cost. My back-up plan has always been design; originally it was interior design, but now I'm thinking more fashion design. I already have sewing experience from pillows, as well as a flapper dress (that was a pain), and repairing antique jewellery (that took forever).

Medical School (What's there for me?)
I'm already greatly interested in the body and in science. Over time, my dream job has changed from ER nurse to GP to RD. Currently, I am greatly interested in being a Dietician/Nutritionist.

Fashion
School mates call me unfashionable, because I don't wear ROXY or American Eagle. But, that doesn't mean I don't enjoy fashion. My fashion, my style, is mine and I want to bring that to the world. I'd also like to prove that women of any size can be beautiful, and have no models with a known eating disorder. But, that's all way in the future, and will be a tough industry to break into.

Anything else?

Hi McMourning!!! How are you??

Dear god you actually attempt to learn Greek!!!! (I hate my 'native' language).
I am also learning Spanish, however it's hard to learn when your friends next to you are constantly cracking jokes (not that I mind...)

Go women of any size!!! :D I'm all for that seeing as I have a pear shaped figure AND am only 4"11, that makes it almost impossible to find any decent jeans..

What sort of fashion are you into?? Do you do the whole 'latest trend' thing?

Anyways, see ya around!!

I'm good, thanks. You?

I don't really like some of the "trends" that celebs wear. Like the huge bows on the shoulders: who, in their right mind, is going to wear a pillow-sized bow?

I'm really into creating my own personal style, with what I have on hand. One time I took a choker and wore it as legband. It looked kind of cool, but the outfit had to be just right, or else it didn't look good.

On the other hand, I love to get dolled up into elegant dresses. I think if I were to enter the fashion design business, I'd be creating formal wear not legbands and teen trends. But, we'll see...

Formal wear would probably give you the best sense of achievement as it's something elegant......and all girls love dressing up like princesses (don't deny it......even if it is deep, deep, deep down!!).

I must agree, trends is all about if you like it or not, if you do then interpret it your way!!

Well good luck with both the Medical side and the Fashion side!!

Well, the fasion topic definately is something I agree on.

In my town anyway, every body comes to school as if they were dressed to go to like some formal dinner or something. I on the other hand, dress like I just fell into a thrift store.

By the way, I give you props for the big women thing. I have really big hips and I'm sort of small on top in comparison though Lately I've been biking and today their dragging me to go shopping.

Any way, I have no I idea where I was going with this post but okay.

Thanks!
It's okay that you went off topic, if you can even call it that. We all do sometimes, it's unavoidable.

This is a message to all you out there. You don't have to be the fastest writer. You don't have to write 2000 words in one sitting. But if you put your mind to it and really love your project, you can and will get further along than you ever thought possible.
