First Timer

So I'm pretty much a first time blogger. I've done some myspace ones but nothing special. I'll start off by introducing myself.

I'm Jaleesa. I live in Western Kentucky but grew up in Southern Illinois. I'm 20. I have a baby girl named Katherine who is just about 16 months old. She's pretty much the most awesome person in the world. I do roller derby. My derby name is Valanthe Nai'lo. It's elvin for Valarie Nightbreeze (from my one and only D&D character. R.I.P!). It's an amazing sport. If you don't know what roller derby is or if you would like to check out our team go here: www.myspace.com/pcrg. Anyways, I'm in school as well. My original plan has been to go for Sonography, but lately I've been contemplating switching to Nursing. There is so much more I could do in Nursing and I think it would be well worth the one extra semester of school. Oh and I also work at a hospital already. I clean and do other types of duties in an ER. It's pretty exciting and fast paced and I love it (well not so much the cleaning part, which you'll actually see me bitch about quite often).

Anyways, those are the main hobbies I have. Back in the day I used to play the trumpet. Still have it, but never get it out and play anymore. I still kick ass at it though. I have a bass guitar, but I don't know how to play that. I can read tabs, but that's cheating.

I guess I can let you in on some of the people closest to me. I've got my bff Julie. She's so amazing and understands me. Then I've got all of my roller derby girls. I love them to death and don't know where I'd be today without them. I've got some family. I don't have parents and you'll come to find out why if I decide to make a post about it. It's kind of deep and depressing and very very personal, so that might not happen. I don't have a significant other at the moment. I've kind of given up on trying to get into a serious relationships. The past year has just been heartbreak after heartbreak, so I'm holding off until it just happens. No more searching for love, you know? Besides, with how busy my life is, it would be very difficult trying to juggle in someone special. And not to mention, it would have to be someone good enough to be around my daughter, considering she's the most important thing in my life.

Okay, so there you have it. That's me in a nut shell. Ugh, I don't know why I used that saying. I really don't even know what it means, lol. Like I get what it's trying to say, I just don't understand why it is worded the way it is.

KBye!
