    • About Me

      im 18 years old. Currently taken, going on 2 years with the most amazing guy ive ever met. im in college to become a physicians assisstant. im trying to become a better person, inside and out. Over the course of the past few months, ive had a rough time finding out who i am, and being heldback by others. now im finding out this isnt the girl im proud of, and the girl i do not want to be. just looking for support and hopefully happiness is right around the corner.
