They love me so much and support me no matter what!
I am very close with both of my parents and my brother. (He is just as close to mom and dad as I am)
I am truly lucky and so thankful to have them!!!

Wow, just wow, for once I..."

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring you to tears >_<
Thank you for your kind words though <(^_^)>

I'll start with this:

My dad is Military: Navy actually.
24 years now retired.
We moved to Florida when he retired and things were grate...untill:

Things got hard for a while. I was diagnoised with Epilipsy (seizure disorder but I am just over a year seizure free now =) and to top that off I was physically bullied, mentally bullied and cyber bullied and had no friends. Our house was forclosed and we had to live with my twins aunts (that is a whole nother story of its own and not a positive story!) Things were really hard and we had very little money. My bed was on the floor for nearly 4 years until my parents finally got jobs!

From where I was to now:

We moved to another state (I had lived in a total of 19 states since I was born and I am not moving anymore) and I now have a room with furniture. I even have friends!

Things are great! I have the best family!
I have a little brother (we are 9 years apart) his name is Andrew,who I honestly don't know what I would do without! That kid has taught me so much! And my mom,dad, brother, and I are really close. And i'm pretty sure I have the coolest partents in the world ^_^ Without them I don't know where I would be, they were always loving and supporiting and I could turn to them for anything ^_^

none the less, Because of all I have been through, I found my love in reading and the world that words can create. And I know who I turly am ^_^

Currently:
I graduate high school in 7 weeks and start college in 2 months.

Right now I am super happy and never been better!

And my name is ASHLEY

Nice to meet you <3

<(^_^)>

I have two best friends. The three of us would hang out all the time. For whatever reason they stopped talking and every since, the three of us don't hang out. I need to clone myself. I try to spend equal time with them because they say I am picking a "side" if I spend more time with the other person. I still love them both though, and now they say and seem 100% fine and ok with the fact they arn't friends anymore. But thats ok. We all start college soon (2 months) so not really sure what will happen. Hopefully nothing changes for the worse. But right now I can't really complain because at least I have friends who care ^_^
