    Hello, everyone! I'm new here.

    I'm nineteen, and I major in Web Design. My biggest goals right now are to find work and finish earning my degree while getting a bit of creative writing done in my spare time. Someday, I'd like to live in a nice, quiet apartment or house and have a pet dog.

    I came out in late 2008, a few months after I fell for a close friend. Well, a lot can happen in a year (and a few months). I've been in a few relationships, and I've had my heart broken a couple of times. I began to question my feelings for men when I started dating them and realized I didn't like it at all. But I think of myself as a bi-curious lesbian right now.

    Offline, the only two people who know are my little sister and mom. My sister actually figured it out months before I did, but she didn't tell me until I came out to her. I can't tell my dad, though. Online, I'm out to everyone. :slight_smile:

    Right now, I'm dealing with a couple of health issues, and I'm a little scared. What actually scares me most is getting blood drawn; I don't like needles. But that's a long story for a different time. :slight_smile:
