Well, this is where I tell a bit about myself, I suppose. I am 20 years old; my birthday is January 30, 1979, and YES I AM counting down the days (Not cause of the whole alcohol thing...all of the people I know are 21 or older and I get left out on a lot of stuff cause I am not old enough...which sucks!). (That's right my b-day falls on the FIRST Super Bowl of the 21st Century! Woo-hoo! Personally, I think that is TWO perfect excuses to have a party! It's not every year that the Super Bowl is on my b-day and you only turn 21 once.) I actually had a debate with a bunch of people that said that I should be saying "My birthday is on the Super Bowl" instead of "The Super Bowl is on my birthday." Why? Here is their silly logic..."There have been more Super Bowls than Kelly's birthdays!" Crazy, huh? I say that the Super Bowl doesn't fall on my b-day every year so, therefore, the Super Bowl is on MY birthday this year. I know I am right (I hate being wrong. But if you can prove me wrong, then that's cool.) I was born in Lubbock, Texas. For those of you who don't know where I am talking about, don't worry about it, it's not that great of a town, but there is probably worse.. But if you are still really worried about it, you can click here and check it out. I am your average American Mutt. I am a little bit of Irish, Dutch, German and a tad bit of Greek (you can't see it though). The Irish shows through in my looks and the German shows through in my attitude. The name 'Kelly' is Gaelic and means Warrior Woman! (Yeah, I know, that makes me pretty damn spiffy, right? heh.) I graduated from Monterey High School in 1996, a whole year early. Sometimes, looking back, I regret doing this...but it is too late now and all things happen for some reason or another. I attended South Plains College in Levelland, Texas (Which is about 35 miles west of Lubbock.) and majored in Broadcast Journalism. Broadcast Journalism was always a passion of mine, throughout junior high, high school and into college. I cannot no longer attend SPC because I no longer have transportation. I was married for a brief time. That was a mistake...but at least I learned from it. I was eighteen and stupid, I'll be the first to admit that. (That and he was just a really mean and cold person.) I have three tattoos and I will be getting pictures of them up here soon! I am not a freak, I look pretty normal, actually. (What exactly is normal??) They are very cute and tasteful and, most importantly, I can cover them all up! I also have this weird curvy part of my ear pierced (it's called something like Daith or Rook) and my navel, too. I do not have any brothers or sisters. I don't know my biological father and I want to keep it that way. I have nothing to say to him. My mom is the Assistant Treasurer for the Northwest Texas Conference of the United Methodist Church. My dad used to do road construction. About 10 years ago, he got a disease in his lung which lives in the dirt where cattle live. It's called Actinomycosis Anaerobic Bacteria and it ate up his lung, therefore, he is no longer able to work. I am currently attending International Business College. I'm majoring in Medical Administrative Assisting (It was Medical Office Specialist/Transcriptionist, but they are changing all the majors up.). It's not the best there is, but I am making do with what I have and trying to make a better life for myself. I am also completely fascinated with Medicine as a whole. I really don't know what I want to do when I get out of IBC. I know I don't want to be in the clerical side of medicine. I got very interested in medicine when I was little. At 10 I was learning how do to IVs when my dad was sick and at 13 I was learning wound care when my mom had her surgery and developed a hospital borne staph infection in her incision. I am miserable here in Lubbock. The only thing keeping me here is school really, hopefully things will work out here or I will find a better place to move. I LOVE music. I was in Choir all throughout school and in church. I love to sing and I CANNOT function without music. Music is a powerful tool because it can express things that we want to get across but have difficulty with. It can also describe the moment perfectly. I would love to be a Disc Jockey one day. I have been told I have the perfect voice for it and it combines two of my FAVORITE things -- Broadcasting and Music!!! I also love to write poetry and essays and short stories. You can also check out the pictures page for pictures of me, my family and my baby, my car. I miss her. :~((( Basically, I have no life as of now. I concentrate mainly on school, which is a good thing. I have a 4.0 GPA, but at IBC, it's not hard to have that. I'm not dating anyone right now. I'm a hopeless romantic. I've had bad luck in the relationship department and I'm trying to change that. Unfortunately, I can't say that I am blessed with a lot of friends, because if I did, I would be lying, but the few that I do have mean the world to me and I would do anything for them cause that's the type of person I am. I guess I went thru this big maturing thing about a year ago and I starting realizing who my true friends were. Sad thing is...that I didn't have any. I guess I was just a bad judge of character. Anyway, enough depressing stuff. I've had too many jobs. I also enjoy swimming, basketball, softball, baseball, football, bowling, pool and volleyball. I also like Tennis and dancing! And if that doesn't totally weird you out, I also am a car freak and I like to work on them. You will notice on my pictures page, that my father is Spanish, but I am not. That is because he adopted me. He is my real dad and always will be as far as I am concerned. And yes, I do speak Spanish, although I am rusty. I have recently discovered that my two favorite foods are now pepperoni pizza and cheese enchiladas. Yum!
According to the Kabalarians, this is what my first and middle names mean:
The name of Kelly creates a very versatile and creative nature. You are quick-minded and have the freedom of expression to mix easily with people. Because your feelings and desires are so changeable, you are never satisfied with conditions as they are. You have many ideas, plans, and ambitions, but too often they are for an easy way out of a difficulty or an easy way of making money. You seek change in order to have the opportunity for travel, new experiences, and new friends and associates. You find it difficult to systematize your efforts and to fulfil your obligations and plans as you are not inclined to apply yourself consistently to a job to reach your goals. Although you appear positive, you inwardly lack self-confidence and will-power. This name has caused you to feel unsettled emotionally and mentally, being too easily influenced through your emotional nature and by other people. The name makes it difficult for you to view life realistically, to be honest with yourself and with others. Instead, you live in your desires, longing for conditions and people to be as you would like them to be.
As Renee you are rather serious-minded, responsible, and stable. You have the gift of tact and diplomacy, and possess a charming, easy-going nature which endears you to others. You have a serious desire to understand the heart and mind of everyone, and could be very effective in a career or in volunteer work where you are handling people and serving in a humanitarian way. This name also gives you a love of home and family, and as a parent you would likely be fair and understanding. You remember the thoughtful little expressions of affection and appreciation that mean so much to others, and you have the ability to create a warm and loving environment. However, you tend to put things off and avoid facing issues because of a lack of confidence and uncertainty. You often need encouragement from someone before you can come to a decision.
I am your typical Aquarian. This is the best and most accurate description of my sign I have found. http://www.astrology-online.com/aquarius.htm
