acting, poker player, animal training, Paralegal student

  I am a mother of 1 daughter, (Teishay) and she is my heart.
I go to college at Baker College, located in Auburn, Hills, Michigan for my paralegal degree.
I have a couple hobbie's. My number 1 hobbie, is playing  free poker weekly. I won the winter Championship for Lk Orion, Mich and a free seat into the Regional championships. I also like to paint, and write poetry when the mood hits me.I love going horse- back- riding, and taking long peaceful, quiet walks in the woods. I like going camping, and sitting by a bombfire,.In the spring/summer I spend my mornings sitting on my porch swing, with a hot cup of coffee just listening to nature at it's best.
I love animals and always seem to take them in, scared of their demise at a shelter. I have a uncanny ability to train animals to do unusual tasks, love and patience goes a long wayOpen/ shut doors, knock, can give a list on request.
I am a very hard worker,dependable to show up, and mind my own business.I can take dirrections well and I don't like gossip.I always strive for perfection, in anything new I'm trying to learn.I can take critisism well and learn from it.
Even though I am tiny, I can and will stick up for myself.I don't like anyone picking on the weak, handicapped,elderly.I will speak my mind, freely when it comes to this.I have a very big heart, but won't be taken advantage of either. Don't walk when someone I care about needs me, I run.I love listening to others stories of interest..I'm good at being a caring ear, when someone needs to vent, scream, cry, or just break down. When I look at a glass that is filled half way, I see it as half full, instead of half empty.I always try to see things on a positive level, even when it's hard to.
I believe that if you have negative people always in your life,downing your dreams, or telling you you will fail, or can't possible do that (get rid of them) they will crush your dreams, quicker than anything and make you second guess yourself. If there is a will, there is a way.Persistence and patience always pays off, just like in Poker playing.Always believe in yourself, even if no one else does.
