My name is Jess.
(^ that's me)
I was born Aug 7, 1987 in Providence RI (10:05am)
I grew up in a "Roman Catholic" family that didn't even go to church until my parents separated in 1998.
I've never been able to maintain more than 3-4 friends at a time, with an average of about 2. Much of this was probably due to the annual move my family made until I was thirteen.
I'm actually of Middle Eastern and German descent predominantly.
I have two full sisters, a half sister from my mom and her husband, a step sis from my mom's husband, and a step bro from my father's wife.
I think there are four characteristics that make me, well, me
1)I am intense. For good or bad, I'm intense. I'm one of those people that gets noticed in a crowd, whether I want it or not. I think people sense the intensity, and usually avoid me as a result. Oddly, the intensity acts like a flame to a moth on other people, but these folks are rare.
2)I am bright. I'm intelligent, yes, but "bright" to me indicates intelligence combined with a thirst for change, growth, and knowledge and resiliency.
3)I'm different. this might sound kind of silly or immature, but I am different. Not necessarily in my likes or dislikes or interests or habits (though they're not mainstream either), but more in how I think and feel and perceive the world. I've only met a half a handful of people who understand, and fewer who understand through experience.
4)I have a high level of ambivalence. I will love and hate something, agree and disagree with something for the very same reasons. What fun. lol.
I have about 35 yrs of living crammed into 21 yrs, I think. It's not been easy, and I've hated quite a bit of it, but I am really very thankful for all the bull I've gone through. I love who I am, and I can't ask for better than that.
Musically, I LOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVE power metal, heavy metal, thrash, death metal, and BLACK METAL. Love love love love love love love it.
I used to be into some emo and electronica and classic rock, but have grown out of the most of it.
I love to draw and paint, and I'd like to think I'm at least decent at it. :-)
Can play clarinet and bassoon, and can sing.
I LOVE to cook, crochet, write, and do needlework.
Pretty much anything creative with a tangible result.
And as much as I hate everyone, I really love everyone too much at the same time. LOL
I'm currently traveling with my boyfriend (he's too wonderful) around the country.
Hope this wasn't too torturous to read. ;-)
