On My Terms, My Own Skin

This is my very first posting. Some will ask, what's up with the name, etc., and I have one simple answer. It's me. I got the idea from a talk I had with my mom not too long ago, where she said I was finally becoming comfortable in my skin again, and it hasn't been that way in a long time. It hasn't. I've spent almost 4 years (probably more, but 4 since I've been out of high school) trying to find out exactly who I am, accept my strengths and weaknesses, what I want out of my life, etc. Here I am. 22, single, no kids, a criminal justice major with a natural talent for the subject, and a personality like no other. Stubborn, strong-willed, outspoken, honest.... the list could go on and on, but it won't. Eventually I'll probably get married, but the man has to have a personality just as strong as mine for it to work..... Right now though, I'm busy getting my life in order, then I'll worry about making room for additions to it. Speaking of additions, Congrats to my friends who have had kids recently....I'll also toss in a "good luck" too, because you might need it! Cutting this short, watch for a possible *big* announcement from me when April comes along, and also, before anyone else asks, yes, I'm supporting Bush, because I love my country, and I believe if we need to go to war in these times to protect our country and our future from another September 11th, so be it.
