So you wanna know a little about me?
Well ok, currently im 24 soon to be 25 although i still feel like im 16 half the time. I have two beautiful boys and a great guy that i married. Ive been married for all of my adult life, we're going on our 4 yr anniversary.
I always thought growing up that i would become a successful poet or writer because i considered my childhood to be "troubled". No i never did drugs, i had two parents that loved me very much, i got to travel a little of the U.S. and even went to India once, was introduced to different cultures, graduated high school, had a loving and supportive friend...my life sucked didn't it! Ha, well at the time i thought it did.
I was convinced no one loved me and no one cared its amazing how a few negative words spoken about you from people who really dont know you can convince you of something. I dont vote because it my belief that my vote really doesn't count and besides that i dont want to vote for someone who i only half agree with which is the opposite of how i was raised. I was raised with republican views. Democrats are evil! Ha ha im kidding, I married one!
So you might be able to see why for a long time i was confused about a lot of things and because i was confused i mistook it as being troubled. I am a pastors kid, guilty as charged although i kinda liked the fact that people would befriend to try and corrupt me because then i got the pleasure of letting them see how hard it would be for them. I loved watching people try and make me do things, it didn't really work out all that well for them. What can i say, "sinners" arent the only people who enjoy "a challenge". Looking back now, i am so thankful for the way i was raised. I didn't know about sex, drugs or anything dangerous til i was a sophmore. I wasnt afraid to speak my mind to people and i didn't even realize i was like this util my really good friend told me one night when we were sitting at TGIF restraunt and the waiter wouldn't leave us alone about our "real age" (he thought we were older than we were) when she said "ive missed you, what happened to you, youre not a bitch anymore" ha ha ha ha. Thats when i realized she would always be in my life and there are appropriate times to not hold your tongue!
This isn't to say i was a saint growing up because i wasn't i just wasnt as, well, lets say adventurous of a child as my older sister. Punky, is 15 months older than me and i was her life raft in high school. I bailed her out of trouble soooooo much, ill get straight to the point, the worst thing she did in my opinon was disobey my parents and hopped a flight to texas her junior year of school! Do you know anyone who would fly half way accross the country to see their boyfriend graduate boot camp? Well now a days parents would just give their kids their credit card and say ok honey have fun! As If, these parents piss me off, grow some balls and parent! ugh anyway back to me, i turned out ok i have a beautiful family and some pretty rockin friends.
I love photography, thats why i am a photographer a gift that was inspired by my late Aunt Stef. Because of Stef i am now someone on a mission to make the breast cancer experience a little sexier. She always oozed sex appeal and when she died from this vile virus ive always wanted to do shoots for women and men suffering from it and make them feel sexy again even if its just for 1 day. She was awesome...that will be for a different blog. Interesting fact though, Stephanie died April 15, 2007 and my first child was born April 15, 2008...his due date was her birthdate April 21... That day is bitter sweet still and probably always will be. For now i think you know enough! Much love!
Christa
