I am currently training for the biggest event in my life--enlistment in the United States Navy. I am joining to serve as a Medic and to see the world. Currently, even though I wish I were on an ambulance or fire truck, I'm starting a new job at a Nursing Home/Adult Foster Care Facility as a CNA. It's not permanent, and if I can pull a few strings, I'll be getting my old job back. I miss late night trips to St. John's, Hurley, Henry Ford, etc, sleepless nights because the city doesn't sleep and people need a ride to the Hospital, and the constant excitement my job entails. We'll see what happens. Can't wait to begin the next chapter of my life!

....where to start?

I have a great interest in people. I enjoy learning about different cultures and in general about what people think. I get many ideas from people in Xanga for it helps me in the area of creativity. (I love to write.)I respond back to everyone that comments on my sight.

I am an enigma wrapped in bacon. Mmmmm.....bacon. Okay, maybe I'm not all that mysterious and bacon doesn't remain uneaten for all that long around me. Other Papiya facts: 1) No matter what happens, no matter where I am or how little alcohol is involved, I will get injured. I will get hit by a car or lose a toenail or break my knee or lose the same toenail again. But I never blame the alcohol, only the Catholic holidays which inspire the drinking. 2) I am a smart ass. I have a t-shirt which says so and t-shirts never lie. I can't control my smart-ass-ness. The wiring between my brain and mouth is faulty so any sarcastic thought that pops into my head automatically pops out of my mouth. 3) I LOVE BACON. I would marry bacon 'cept I'm pretty sure that would only be legal in two states but even so, it would probably be illegal to cook and eat one's spouse. 4) I am incredibly cocky and insecure at the same time. I guess that makes me an oxymoron. Which is better than being an oxy.
