OH sweet jesus, nice day to pick me
Work at ice cream store in an hour or so and then work at the movie theater tonight, ugh!
Well, I have some time now so I'll try and get this out early, I'll be back later if there's some questions up.
I have lived in Florida my entire life. Born and raised in Boca Raton (I'm not jewish
) I lived there every year for the first 18 years of my life. Home life was always a rush, between my brother (a year and a half older than me) and myself playing baseball, piano, going out. Our parents got divorced when I was about 2 years old and he was 3 or 4. So my entire life until I was 14 my dad dated...which is kind of funny when I think about it heh. He tried to raise us to be catholic, which worked in a way. Basically what it turned me into is a person that just wants to be a good human being and live a good life.
At 14 when my dad remarried, that is when true hell began. This lady is a stupid bitch and I have absolutely no respect for her. She is an off and on alcoholic, has been in and out of rehab centers more times than I can count, and is just completely messed up in the head. My brother moved out of our father's house and into our mother's apartment when he was 16 because of her. Apparently she had attempted to kiss him when she was drunk. This leads me into the creepyness of her. It was impossible to have any kind of meetings with friends over at my father's house due to her. She would always come off "way too friendly."
While growing up I would spend weekends at my mother's house across town. While she drinks as well, as does my step father, they do not drink like my step mother does. Drunken arguments took place, but it was almost accepted as a given.
Well, my life was pretty boring until high school, when the above happened at my father's house. I don't know what changed, but suddenly I would just hole up in my room most of the time, playing AC as that is when I got into it
(Kristi was my first monarch!). In high school I was one of the kids that basically everyone knew, but I didn't really have a huge circle of friends I would go out with. I played baseball only my freshman year, and quit after due to personal issues with other players (brother's friends giving me crap all the time, saying stuff like how I would shoot up the school and such). I really got into computers around this time, my father helping me build my first computer and showing me the ropes. I joined computer club at school and was president of the club my junior year (hahah it was such a joke, but I did raise more money than ever before and set the standard on fund raising for us).
Around my junior year of high school, I became very lazy and would not do hardly anything productive. This was different than normal because I grew up always getting 5 A's and 2 B's in classes (2 B's usually in literature classes and those styles). I ended up getting C's and maybe a D or two. My dad freaked out that year, and I felt like junk.
The next year he took me to a psychiatrist and they pushed pills onto me to take (yay for happy purple pills?). I took these for about 2 months then I stopped, they made me a zombie and I hated it. Moreover, one of my friends hated it. This girl was probably the most amazing person I ever met. Always tried to help me, always made me feel positive, always had a smile on her face. Probably first time I've ever felt in love with someone. However, never had a chance to do anything with her as we went to college (she went to Univ of Hawaii, her family moved to Minessota, I am at USF as Lynea stated).
That leads me to today, where I am working two jobs this summer (making ice cream 2-3 times a week at a Maggie Moo's and working concession at a Muvico theaters). I am a Physics major, looking to go into teaching (preferrably high school back near home). I am really not active in anything, don't work out...
Oh, and a small side story.
Quit WoW after 2.5 years of playing or so, but before I quit, about 7 months ago, met an amazing person in there. I talked with her a lot for the last 6 months, and we've really wanted to meet forever (she's in Tennessee). That time is this weekend in Orlando, she is coming down for a weekend vacation and wants to meet up, and while long distance probably be the first relationship I have been in in 3+ years or so.
**Wow, I lead a boring life and my story sucks compared to the others I've read
**
Some last tidbits:
-Italian food is what I live on usually, even though I'm not Italian
-Played baseball for about 12 years of my life
-Write bits of poetry as a small side hobby when I feel like it, got published and almost made the final 10 in a national contest my last year in high school (was not fun to have that announced on morning announcements, ugh).
-Played many MMO's from anywhere for 2 weeks to 2 years. AC, AC2, SWG, AO, CoH, FFXII, WoW...I think that is it.
*edit* ah, yea, and I'm 21 now, b-day was a month ago
