About Me meme

First Name:
I can tell you my name is Rachel Ann D, hence the user handle Rad. :-P I think I got my middle name from an old great-aunt, but I am not sure. I... never hated nor loved my name, but as you can see I love my initials. Good thing CJ's last name is Hess and not something that starts with a "T".

Age:
21. My birthday is September 19. I did not have alcohol on my birthday. Prolly will never have it. I have been driving since I was 14.5 and I am really good at it... but many, MANY people are not.

Location:
Currently I am at Camp Geneva, Holland, MI; I took my roommate over here so she could see her boyfriend. My current residence is in Kentwood, MI but I can more commonly be found in Cornerstone University, Grand Rapids, MI. My permanent residence, at least until I get married, is Wyoming, MI (my parents' house).

Occupation:

I work in the dishroom at CU's food service. Sometimes I'm in charge... or all by myself. I get to deal with the CRAPPY machine and dirty dishes. I love the industrial dishwasher though; I hate doing dishes. But the pit is so much fun. That's where I met CJ. ^_^

Partner:
I have two, though I am not cheating. XD Jessica is my roommate and my best friend. We roomed together two years ago when we met through a mutual aquaintence and she wanted to room with me again this past year. We are trying to room again this coming school year but we must have a third roommate (she wants her own room but I can't afford my own room). Our roommate-sister-friend relationship is a lot like marriage...!! XD CJ is my boyfriend. We've been dating since September 30. Someday we will get married. Someday after college and my internship....

Kids:
I suppose you could call Jess my child... XD XD I don't have kids. Unless you want to count the ponies! Heh. I want them someday.

Brothers/Sisters:

I have one younger brother (18 or 19) who is very immature and a jerk. He enjoys his videogames far too much and he needs a job SO bad. He still lives at home but is very irresponsible. He pays rent but doesn't act like a good tennant should.

My mom is an animal person so I have two dog "sisters." One, Heidi, we have had for... 13 years? She's getting old but she's mommy's baby; Mom calls her fluffy-butt because of all of her HAIR. She's a medium-sized mutt that we got from one of Josh's schoolmates waaaay back when. The other, Maya, Mom kinda rescued from a shelter/adopt-a-pet place. Maya wasn't abused but she was neglected some. She's REALLY hyper and unfortunately chews on things. Mom's still working on training her but Maya is getting much better. She might even be a sheep herder... Mom's taking her to classes to get her exercised and her brain working. I think Mom said Maya was a Blue Healer and a... German Shepherd? mix. Not sure.

Pets:

I personally do not have any pets. Unless you count my roommate. XD Or the ponies. XD

List the 3-5 biggest things going on in your life:
1) Working in the dishroom this summer. I'm not a big fan of some of the other workers, but I don't work with them a lot so it's all good.
2) CJ. We hang out at least twice a week.
3) Jess. She is my best friend and the sister I always wanted. We get along so well. She's visually impaired and can't drive, so I'm her choufer (yes, I can't spell that) so we have a lot of bonding time. She's currently looking for a job and not doing so well.
4) Writing. I am going to try to do this a lot this summer. I want to get my Escaflowne stories done, get a lot of chapters and contiums done in my My Little Pony story, and work on some original concept ideas. 
5) Not so much now but during school I need to find an internship!

Where and for what did you go to school for?:

As already stated I attend and work at Cornerstone University. I am an English major in the reading track; though I want a writing track. But the only writing track CU offers is journalism and I want to write stories. I chose this major because there was nothing left but Bible and I don't want to do that for a career. I don't like math, science, kineseology, or buisness or anything else. I love to read, write, and edit/find mistakes, so I chose an English major. Someday I want to be an author and an editor. I chose to attend CU because my dad wanted me to attend Calvin. *Sticks tongue out at her father*

Parents: 
I have both parents and they are still together. My parents are nearing 50 but aren't "old" quite yet. I love them both but I'm so glad to not be living at home. My mom and I are pretty close. My dad... well, I love him but he can get on my nerves. He is a bit of a workaholic and doesn't realize he should be home more often. He rags on me a little that I work almost 40 hours this summer with minimum wage when I could be working at the factory for $9/hr. But that's no fun. I like food service: I know and enjoy (most of) the people there and I love the dishroom.

Who are some of your closest friends?
Jessica and CJ. I'm not really close with anyone. I have good friends at school but we all have such different interests that I don't see them much. 

And there you go. Feel free to ask questions.
