Mini-Profile

Hi, I’m 26, I’m from Kansas, and live there now. I graduated in 2005 with a B.S. in Enviornmental Biology. Since then, I’ve completed a semester of biology grad school, which I decided not to pursue afterwards, and instead pursued some grad work in writing and editing. I play violin, and do some performing/teaching with that. I have mainly been working secretary jobs and other types of office admin work, and to be honest, I’m a little confused in my life career-wise right now, and especially relationship wise. My whole life is in a state of almost constant personal turmoil. I’ve been in a transition mode for almost 3 years. I’m no longer a student, but, I’m still kind of entry-level and trying to find a job that would best fit me. I’m considering really finally going back into environmental science and teaching. But still not sure. My lack of direction is not something I’m very proud of, but I’m coping.
I love the outdoors, beautiful things, music, people, life. I’m very deep, probably overthink everything. I love my family- I have both my parents, and my older brother (no other siblings). I also have Rheumatoid Arthritis. Got that when I turned 21. I’m finally on some medicine that is really giving me my life back. I still live with the folks after 3 years of living on my own. Tough, but necessary. I am now trying very hard to get back out on my own (my health has improved enough I feel I can manage full time work again). So, I’m in the process of revamping my life you might say. And deciding whether or not to “weather” another year of total uncertainty with a man that I love so deeply….check out my post if you want to know more, though I woulnd’t blame you if you don’t! :)
