Mini-Profile

Hey y’all! My name is Timothy Carstensen! I am truly 15 years old and am a very strange individual… I LOVE reading, am taking classes at the local community college for highschool College credit, I’ve Homeschooled all my life till now, and I go to church every week in a home church where several men try and go back from modern religious trends (like focusing on the pastor, only coming for the music or the hangin with friends, or forgetting to look to God and his word for direction but to each other… or online… It’s amazing how much religious hypocrisy we’re surrounded by, isn’t it!). Our Church is called Grace Fellowship and is based on the early church’s focus on God and His word, and ONLY God and his word (no more focusing on other people or things… God will lead one to heaven, not the preacher or the neighbor or the drums… although I LOVE the drums…).

Anyway, I plan to go to Masters College in southern California to major in Pre-med, then (if I keep my GPA decent and get a scholarship or two) I’ll apply for UC Davis to get a Doctorates degree in medicine (with a goal in pediatrics… I’ve always wanted to help people and I love playing with children).

I also want to make a few mission trips to mexico and especially Romania (I’ve got friends there and I’ve been there once. It’s absolutly beautiful and stunning back there in Romania, what with the mountains and countryside. It’s also Calm and peaceful there… well, mostly).

I want a small house in the country when I grow up and get a family… a small house in a small town community where I can be the local Doctor Timmy and grow crops (and I’ve always wanted to have a few cows and horses and a barn). This dream was partly born to me by friends of mine who moved from California to Washington three years ago…

Anyway, thats a brief look at my life. I found Help.com a few months ago in a search for help for many problems I had… I found out that helping others, though it doesn’t solve your problems, gives you a peace and strengh to try again that is hard to find otherwise. Thank you, help.com, for, uh, ‘helping’ me find that peace!
