A Little More
Well, now you know all the basics, here's a little more. Obviously my name
is Alexis. I don't have any nicknames, and really have never wanted one. I love
my name, and wouldn't even think about going by anything else. I was born and
raised in Indiana. I can't say I love it here, but I don't hate it either. I
don't plan on staying here forever, but for right now, I'm not minding it to
much. I want to finish my degree before I even think about moving. I only have
roughly 2 years to go. I switched my major recently, so I've actually been in
school for about 7 years already. I was a Veterinary Technology major, but
decided I couldn't put poor, little animals to sleep, so I switched to Visual
Communications Design, basically Graphic Design. From there, I had to take a
photography class for that major, and fell in love with it. Also, apparently, I
fairly good at it. At least that's what I hear. So, now I'm a Photography major,
and couldn't be happier.
I love animals, if you can't tell that by now. I have 1 dog, an Alaskan Malamute,
1 cat, a calico shorthair, and a betta fish.. I love them all like they were my children. I love spending time
with my friends and family. They are all so important to me. I don't know
what I would do without them. They keep me grounded and help me stay sane.
I am currently kinda in a relationship. This is a new development that
happened a few weeks ago. My ex and I broke up again, imagine that, and I'm
dating someone new. The ex and I are definitely done. He isn't ready for a
relationship, so it was time for me to move on. I'm sick of waiting around for
him, and just can't do it anymore. He is a wonderful person, and will always be
important to me, but I just can't be with him anymore, so I've moved on. The new
guy is great, but it's all very new, so that's all I'm going to say right now. I
don't want to jinx it.
I have my share of bad habits. I am a smoker and also spend a few too many
weekends out at the bars with my friends. I study hard and play harder. If
I don't take time to unwind, I get very stressed out and very pissy,
which is not a good combination. In my downtime I love to read, watch tv,
website design is always a favorite, draw, write, take photographs, and spend
time with my friends, family, and my guy. I am a fairly lazy person, but
try to stay as motivated as I can. Sometimes it's so hard for me to drag my
lazy ass out of bed and go to class, but usually am a good girl and do what
I need to do. School is very important to me, and I try my very best to succeed.
I am currently living with one of my best friends, which is great. We live in a
huge, awesome apartment that I love. It is an old house that was turned into
apartments, so it has a lot of character. Our neighbors are great and it's close
to campus. The rent is affordable and most of the utilities are included which
is great. Also, we can have pets, which is a must for me.
I will be the first one to admit that I am a complete and total dork. Well,
more just really silly. I talk to myself, I dance by myself when no one is
home, I just love life and try to enjoy every second of it. I am quirky and
goofy, but I am also passionate and kind. I would never turn my back on anyone
that needs my help, and usually give more of myself than I have to give. I
still feel like a little kid sometimes, and am trying to embrace growing up
on my own terms. When I was a little kid I told my Mom that I never wanted
to grow up, and I know most kids say that, but I really meant it. Not that
I mind getting older, or even the responsibility, but I never want to lose
the innocence or curiosity that children have. Children have such a love for
life and an amazing sense of wonder. To me it's very magical somehow, and
as I get older, I struggle everyday not to lose that part of myself as I change
and grow.
This is who I am. You can love it or hate it, that's up to you. I am who I
am and decided long ago that I will never change for anyone but myself. I
am completely happy and content with who I am. I accept all of my faults.
They make me who I am. I may not be perfect, but who is really? No one. I
am a lover, a friend, a daughter, a sister, an artist, a student, a
woman, and most importantly, I am me.
