My Life: Hey, the name's Lindsay and I'm 15 going on 16.  I'm a sophomore in high school and have a few great friends.  I'm an only child and have a small family.  Some interests of mine include writing, making graphics, reading, drawing, and eating(:  Who could pass up good food?  I also like playing basketball and I just started trying out skateboarding.  I'm not too great at it, but I hope to get better.  First I have to work on getting my bravery.  Hmm...well I have a dog.  She's a Schnoodle: a mix between a Schnauzer and a Poodle.  My favorite breed though, is definately a Shetland Sheepdog.  I love cats too, however.  Especially the Maine Coons <3  They are so fluffy.  Too bad I'm allergic...      

My Future: At this point, I'm still not too sure what I want to do with my future.  I know I definately will go to college, but I'm not sure what for.  For a while I had my mind set on either game design or graphic arts of some sort.  But then i got to thinking: what about my family?  Many careers with computers are several hour jobs and require late-nights.  What would that do for my family?  I wouldn't be able to have pets or visit with them very often or see my kids until night.  I hope to write a book, but not as my one and only profession.  I want to do something to help animals, but a vet wouldn't cut it for me.  I can't stand the sight of blood, unless you're ok with me passing out or vomitting all over your feet.  But hey, it's up to you.  So other then those options, I don't have much else.  I do like fire...maybe I could be a firefighter(x  

My Writing: I wouldn't consider myself one of the world's best writers, but I don't think I'm the worst either.  I could use some improvement, however.  I find myself usually writing about wolves or dogs mixed in with teenagers.  Sounds childish, but it isn't necessarily.  I enjoy writing fiction stories with magic or mythical beings, too.  Many of the books I read are the same kind of ideas that I enjoy writing about.  I've tried writing many books already, but haven't managed to find something that I stick with.  The farthest I've ever gotten is probably 18 chapters.  But I quit after that, because as I went back and read it, I found myself cringing from the awfulness of it.
