Application :]
The Application:
The Basics
Name: Sarah.
Age and birthday (must be at least 16 years old): 20; July 31, 1989.
Gender: Female.
Relationship status: Single.
Where do you live? Florida.
Getting to know you
Your life:
What about pets? I have two kitties. One female calico here, eight months. And one male blue russian (russian blue? I get it mixed up), here, four years old.
Education level/major? High School Graduate.
Are you employed? If 'mom' counts as a job, then yes. :]
Otherwise, not so much :/
Do you drink? No.
…smoke? Cigarettes, yes.
Have any piercings? (show some pics!) No, my body rejects every piercing I throw at it :[
Have tattoos? (show some pics!) Two, but at the moment I only have a picture of one.
What are your aspirations or dreams? What do you want to do with your life? As of the moment, the main goal in my life is to be a good mom. I won't say I have a terrible mother, I don't. She loves me and would do anything for me, except stop drinking enough beer to supply an entire army. She's a completely different person when she's drunk, and nowadays it seems like she's never sober. It's hard watching her from day to day. And I don't want that for my son. Eventually though, I would love to be an elementary teacher. I don't care what grades or subjects, I generally all-around love children and being around them. And the feeling of accomplishment you get from teaching others is one of the greatest feelings to me.
Show us something creative that you have made/done: I made my son a onesie with a quote from the movie 'The Big Lebowski'. It's one of the only things that captures his full attention at any moment. I'm sure I've done something more creative, I just don't have a picture of it. So I apologize :]
Where are you most likely to be found?With my baby, unless his grandma has stolen him away for a moment :]. But I'm a big book reader. So I'm usually sitting behind a book, listening to music, or watching a movie with everyone who happens to be in the house at the time.

Opinions (please validate them)
Please answer three or more. Remove those that you don't answer.
What do you think about abortion? Personally, I would never get an abortion, but I have no right to judge those who choose to. I believe that if a woman feels she cannot support a child, was raped, or if she in general feels she should not have a child, then it is her own right and choice.
How do you feel about same sex marriage? I think it's beautiful. I don't discriminate against love. And I think that if you love someone, no matter what their color or sex is, you should be able to show it by marraige or whatever means you want to. Just because someone is a homosexual does not mean they cannot love or want the same things as heterosexuals, so their rights should be no different.
Do you believe in any sort of God? I was raised Catholic, but I don't believe in all the close-minded, strict principles some of them keep. I believe in God, but I also believe that He is a loving God that sees us for our good qualities, instead of judging us by the bad ones. It may be idealist, or it may just be the way I was raised, but that's how I've always felt about God.
When you hear ___ what comes to mind?
Purple: Rain
Pillow: the Lisa Frank stuffed animal I've had and been sleeping with since I was nine.
Cookie: Monster :]
Stick: "The woman found the forest where the wood for ugly sticks is grown, then went crashing through it while strapped to the grill of a semi." (from an article on cracked.com)
Misc.
Please answer five or more. Remove those that you don't answer.
If you could have any job for a day, what would you want to be? Either be a kindergarten teacher for the day (just for the practice) or one of those nurses that does most of the work in the Delivery Ward. I'm not sure why, I just think it would be interesting to experience what my nurses went through with me and other women every day. I've been curious about it ever since I gave birth.
What is the worst thing that has happened to you? I never knew anyone to died until March of 2008. I didn't know him well, but he was my first funeral. He died of drugs. Two weeks later, my boyfriend of three months went up to Wisconsin to visit family for a week. The night before he was supposed to fly home, I had a bad feeling that something was wrong. That feeling stayed with me until the next night, when his brother called me and told me he died in his sleep. From the same drugs that killed my friend the two weeks earlier. My back tattoo is in memory of him, and contains a quote from Natural Born Killers, which he said to me at one point in our relationship.
What have you done in your life that you are most proud of? Probably the most obvious answer, but: Gave birth to my son :]
What is your all time favorite song? Don't Know Why by Norah Jones. I'm really sure as to the reason. I think it's just because I love her voice and the song is very soothing and pretty. Whatever the reason, I can't get enough of it.
What is your guilty pleasure? Archie comic books. I've read them since I was ten and I still can't pass up buying them when I see them in the store.
