Just checking back in, so interesting to learn a little about everyone :)

RE - dead body topic....I've seen two. Horrifying. One had literally washed up in the Inner Harbor and Remy and I came across him on our walk in the morning. Awful. Absolutely awful. Remy knew something was wrong too, he wanted to get away fast. The medical examiner had just arrived and they were taking pictures, etc. Felt like I was part of CSI.

Second time was this past summer at the beach when my friends and I happened upon the scene of a hit and run. Some guy was hit by a car on a bridge. The driver had left the scene, and the guy who had been hit was clearly dead. Sorry, if you get grossed out stop reading NOW............ his head was split open and literally his brains were all over the road. I very nearly became sick. We called 911, no police or anything had arrived yet, and stopped traffic in both directions - the cars would have literally driven through his parts. The image is burned into my mind. It was horrific. We found out the next day that the police identified the driver and arrested him. How could you just leave the scene like that? I understand you'd be scared, you just killed someone, but come on! At least accept some responsibility for what you did.

I'm 19 years old but I'm not your "typical" 19 yr old. I'm kinda considered "mature" for my age but I think it's just because I've been through a lot and had to grow up semi-fast. The death of my 6 year old brother in 2006 really took a great toll on me and I don't feel like I'm the same person I was but I try! I have a few close friends that I know will ALWAYS be there for me but they went away to college while I'm still at home @ comm. college! It sucks but what can ya do?! That's part of the reason i got a dog! I actually cuss alot but never around my family which is odd because my mom is probably the queen of sex jokes and bad words, LOL. I'm so opposite of almost my entire family. They're all huge drinkers, big partiers, any event of ours is a HUGE blow out and we never expect less than 80-100 people for a party lol. Our fam is well known in this town but good AND bad reasons :p lol. I'm known for being the one to drive them home all the time :) Regardless, I'm very close to them all, my uncles were always like big brothers to me and just crack me up. Their sense of humor is ridiculous.

I'm stubborn as hell and love to argue, ha! I love a good debate. I'm a TERRIBLE cook -- I don't trust myself with an oven or stove. Microwave and toaster ovens for me! I'm gonna be screwed when I move away from home. I could eat pizza every day if I could. I'd much rather go out to eat than stay in. I'm half/half when it comes to being insecure/secure. I'm actually good at public speaking and don't mind giving speeches and speaking in front of a class or 24 congressman (yep, I did it!) and I'm comfortable talking to new ppl. I'm in college but it's not entirely for me, I wish there was some dream job I had in mind but there's really not. Well, that's a lie. I think it'd be awesome to own a dog facility for daycare/boarding/training - nothing huge. I'm laid back and I'm literally 99.9% drama free, odd for a girl, right? I love watching movies and I enjoy curling up on the couch Fri. nights and watching Dog Whisperer like a loser, :) but I think most of all, deep down, I really have a good heart.
