I'm honest, i wont beat around the bush, and will give you just the facts. I'm PRO-CHOICE and an atheist. I stand very firm in my beliefs on both of these also. I've lived a great life and done things i shouldn't have, but it all lead me to where i am and i woudn't change any of it. I can't pick a career to save my life. I've worked in tattoo/piercing shops. I've worked at strip clubs and bars. I've worked at desk jobs. I was a cake decorator for 3 years. I want to do it all but i dont have the time. I'd rather stay at home with my son.
