Hey. I saw someone post about this community in
ftm so I thought I'd join.
vital stats:
1. what should we call you? Rain.. or Nik
2. where in the world are you? where did you grow up? I currently live and have always lived in Minnesota.. St. Paul area. But my heart has always been in Europe. Scotland, England, Italy, Germany, France. It's lost over there somewhere. I still have yet to find it.
3. what do you do for work, or, what do you WANT to do? I'm currently a Nurse Assistant who wants to eventually go back and get her RN in Nursing.
4. who are the important people in your life? tell us about them. Rich. I've known him for about 4 1/2 years now. We met online through a mutual friend of ours who no longer talks to either of us. He's amazing beyond words. He's the first person who ever accepted me for me. He was the first person who told me "Stop Nik... tell me what YOU think.. what YOU believe". He's been there for me while I was falling apart and couldn't go on.
eerr I could go on about him for hours. lol
VERY important random-ass questions:
5. have you ever returned an item to a store for a refund after having used it? Probably yeah. Not like I had planned on it. Normally only if it just quit working or something like that.
6. if you could bring one character to life from literature, who would it be? Harry Potter. :)
7. which color describes you most accurately? grey
8. what one toiletry item could you never live without? deoderant. BO has got to be one of the worst smells in the world.
9. what do you think Victoria’s secret is? She's insecure and has to flaunt herself in order to keep herself appearing better than those of us who are very unique looking, unlike her.
(yeah I'm not very creative tonight!)
and lastly:
10. what brings you here? I'm here because I've never had a family which I'd consider a family. My father is horribly abusive, my mother is verbally abusive and blind to my fathers abuse. My sister is a drug addict. We don't really talk to any extended family. I told myself when I was 8 that my father wasn't my father anymore. He was just a man I needed to get away from. Sadly I'm still around him due to not having enough money to successfully get out. I've also sworn that someday I'd find a way to build my own family with friends who gave a crap about me. Rich is so far the only member of that family.
11. what do you hope to get from us as a community? Not real sure. Maybe just some nice people who can handle someone who's gone through stuff in their life and who doesn't paint everything with pretty butterflies?
