Ok, well first, I shall give my standard bio:
I lead a rather quiet life in a small town. It is a town that I love. It is simple, quiet, and relaxing. But it is a town I will leave some day. No matter how much I love this town and most of the people in it, I have to leave. If I stay here, the monotony of such a small, quiet existence will begin to tear me down. It will slowly strip me of my individuality, of the very essence of my being. Day by day, I will become like my mother, and her mother before her, living lives in doomed relationships and bittersweet memories. I refuse to become my mother, as I have already seen my sister begin the transformation. I refuse to let myself be taken over, be dragged down by the simple life. I've got to break free of my overbearing, controlling, drill seargent of a father. I've got to make a life for myself - one seperate from my childhood (or at least what little of a childhood I had). I am determined to be free; to break from the claws of opression. To run from those that are working to quash my fiery spirit. I must unleash the me within - the me that's hidden beneath the mask since the dawn of my time. I must break out, become the me I'm meant to be - the me that will lead my soul into eternity. . .
Well, my name is Tabatha. I am 17 years old and my biggest fear is living a life of "quiet desperation". I have three older sisters. One whom I may as well have I've never met, one who I never see, and one who I'd rather not be related to. My dad works for the military and is constantly demanding perfection with a temper that ignites quicker than a zippo. My step-mom isn't much more than a nanny to my father. My mom is just trying to survive, but she's doing it and I hold the utmost respect for her. My family is. . . . .well, it's as close to a family as we're going to get.
And there you have the basics. I love writing. It is the only thing that keeps me sane at times. My work is my everything, my heart and soul are in every piece.
I've got a really open mind and I love meeting new people and talking about pretty much anything. Drop me a line sometime if you just want to talk or whatever. . .I'd be glad to hear from you.
