Instead of cramming this all into my profile above (which I crammed with more important info) I decided to just make one of the journals a profile journal.
Yes this is going to be very very long. Read what you want and come back to it if you'd like. I don't expect all of you to read the entire mass XD no way.

LIKES
Computers - building them, messing with programs, figuring out how to make them perform better, and so on. I'm pretty computer savvy and eventually will do business in computer repair, programming, and building computers for people that are basically computer illiterate on that stuff. I'm also very art-program savvy and have tried many different brands and versions of those brands. I can use just about anything and get good results from it I even know little tricks like how to make great outlines in Microsoft Word (from there you can open it in MS paint and make the image paint-friendly since paint is a very primitive program and works souly with one pixel at a time instead of photoshop that uses softer brushes consisted of many pixels instead of just one)

Drawing- Something I've just done since I was little. I can draw things like humans, robots, cars, whatever, but the only thing is, they get boring after a while. Robots and cars can be customized as much as animals, but again, after a while you're tired of robots and cars. Besides, you run out of ideas for graphics and paint jobs and other fancy stuff to 'trick out your ride'. So I stuck to animals primarily. Anthros aren't my normal focus. I stick to ferals for the most part. Anthros are nice because they're the humanoid versions that can have thins like hair clothing and accessories, but they do take more time to draw for me and require a lot more detail work. I could be considered the following: Digital Artist, Traditional Artist, Varied Artist, Anthro Artist, Animal Artist, Furry Artist.

Music- I listen to a lot of different things, but for the most part I like techno. Not just any kind of dance/techno, but things that have a good beat to them and aren't 100% repetitive. I also enjoy it when the artist sings along with the techno. For example my most favored artist is Basshunter. Whether it's in English, Swedish, or he just created a track without any words, his stuff just happens to be the right mix of everything that it attracts my attention and I enjoy listening to it.

Animals- Member of the ASPCA and look to adopt animals from places that are rescue organizations, humane societies, or animal shelters. Currently we have two shelter rescued dogs, and I've adopted a cat (The cat was adopted after my senior cat passed away and that kitty became my mother's baby and I couldn't take her with when I left home anyway, so it all worked out. She was the family pet, and then became pretty much just my mom's after I moved.)
Eventually after we settle down somewhere, my husband and I are planning on running our own rescue organization. (This is probably going to happen..... let's see... if less than 10 years from now, we're lucky XD so it's just a thought for much later on.)

Canada- This one is more of a point of interest rather than just a 'oh I like this place'. We'll eventually be moving into Quebec sometime in the future. What? Did you expect me to say I love everything about the US just because I was born/raised/live here? Sorry, not all of it's citizens enjoy the 'beauty' of it. The land itself is pretty, but the laws are getting more and more crazy. Besides, people in the US have one concern: "What can we do to screw over the other guy competing for the same job that way we get that job." You'll find that both on a lower working class scale like minimum wage jobs, and of course in the white collar society. Did anyone ever stop to think that maybe not all of us want that super competitive, kill the other guy lifestyle? Also, we seem to be in a rush about everything- as in EVERYTHING we want/need must happen at the snap of our fingers- it gets pretty crazy sometimes. Better yet, the number of friends I have in that general area compared to the number of friends in all of the areas I've lived in inside the US.... well let's put it at a scale of about 6 to 1. Where would you stay? In the middle of nowhere where you don't have any friends or hardly any at all OR go somewhere that has a bunch of your friends nearby so you can hang out with them a lot more often and have something to do on your free days? I choose the latter of the two ^_^ .......besides I'm often mistaken for a Canadian with my accent (Yoopers aren't Canadian....... we'd be better off if the land belonged to Canada and not Michigan, but still..... Even the Canadians that come down tell us we sound more Canadian than them o_o'- Can't do much about it XD you grow up there, you carry the accent.)

Trees- I was born in Arizona, moved to the U.P. of Michigan, then moved out to Wyoming (not like actual want to move to this state cause I like it move- moved because I had a job to go to) annnnnnnd I miss trees. Ok, I don't really need the super mega thick forestry that I had back in the U.P, but still, being in the middle of a type of desert isn't thrilling to me. Sage brush, blood grass, grass that pretty much stays brown all year long (looks like it's dead), dead trees, and trees only near water and in parts of towns/cities, plus sand/red clay and huge ass rocks all over isn't really that pretty to me. The really big rocks and the mountains are cool, sage brush is just like the plague- it's EVERYWHERE. Then you get to see tumble weeds just rollin' rollin' rollin' .. yeah, edge of the desert = not cool. Days are scorching hot usually, nights are freezing cold because there is NOTHING to keep the heat around. Back home you'd have nights where it was so hot and humid you'd pretty much feel like you'll die in your sleep because you're so miserable. Air conditioning makes it cooler, but it doesn't always kill the humidity. Contrary to popular belief, life in the tundra landscape of the U.P. isn't what you'd expect. On average, our summers are very much like the ones found in Florida- extremely hot, extremely humid. It's not rare to see 120 degrees with 80% humidity. Winters are brutal and can be much much more worse in temperature and snowfall than Alaska. Throughout this past winter, I kept tabs with one of my friends in Alaska. She had much better and warmer weather than what we did. Where I was located really was just out of the snowbelt range so we weren't dumped on like our northern edges along the Grate Lakes (and some of our more eastern end of the peninsula would get nasty weather because of the lakes). There was no fall or spring. I haven't seen anything like fall or spring since I was 6. Usually we have a drought in the summer, and an overly cold winter with not too much snow. It sucked- but was pretty enough to be a tourist attraction and hunting land (That was basically the only thing that really keeps that area alive, but I hear from family the tourist rate dropped so things are getting worse.)

Personal space- I enjoy being around others, but when it comes to living, I want to be near enough to a town/city where I can get to the hospital or a store if I need to, but I also want to be far enough out that I have very few neighbors who are pretty far away from our space, or none at all. I would not want to be more than 30 minutes out of a city though (I don't mean like huge city with suburbs either). I just want either a 24-hour store like a Walmart around and a hospital/24-hour pharmacy also a vet clinic. Being extremely isolated doesn't make me happy at all. What happens when there's an emergency? I'd like to get somewhere ASAP in that situation. My husband would prefer to be literally way out in the middle of nowhere with nothing around for hours, but he'll just have to deal with the fact that that's really not too good of an idea and considering we have pets, being too far away from the vet could be fatal. I wouldn't want to have something bad happen just because we lived too far away. Accidents happen and I already know what it's like to live extremely far out from something like a hospital. Again, though, urban/metro life isn't for me. I tried that and well I just get bored there. Also, you're confined to living in smaller places with only a small plot of land and have neighbors only a couple of yardsticks away. It was nice while it lasted, but having the neighbors constantly bother you with "what are you doing =3" is annoying. They do come in handy, however, when you want your stuff being watched, but other than that- nosey neighbors aren't very thrilling to deal with on a daily basis. Even worse is when you have neighbors who act like everyone's out to get them or ones that go around and just cause trouble and mess up the peace in the neighborhood.

Peace and Quiet- I am able to sleep through anything at any time of the day, whether it's a hell of a lot of noise at a party, or someone has bright lights on all night, but things just go better when I have some peace and quiet before I bed down and when I bed down. I CAN sleep through that stuff, but if given the choice, I really don't want to =3 Naps are kind of not a good thing for me. If I take a nap during the day I'm usually up for an additional 5 hours longer than when I'd normally go to sleep. Hence why I usually never take one unless I'm sick. Sometimes my husband goes to take one and I just plan on laying there to cuddle, but again, laying down- a human's natural instinct is to go to sleep and it can't always be avoided >3 You don't always have complete control over every body function.

Challenges- Games usually have to be a challenge for me, same with movies, books, and schooling. If I can predict the outcome of a movie or the next chapter in the book and the outcome of the book- that's boring. Scramble it up some, make it interesting, keep me guessing. Books like FEAR by Jeff Abbot (a thriller mystery/murder story) are wonderful and I have the entire Jeff Abbot collection (of stories like that at least) and a few others by other writers, but the problem is I'm more high-tech, so getting me to actually go read it even if I do love it, is usually a pain in the ass to do lol. I'd rather mess with programming or something on the computer or look up new parts to upgrade the computer more than half the time. With school, repeating the same exact materials in courses over the years isn't a good thing for me. I had this problem with the one college I attended (was more of a local one- famous for parties, but I went because it was one of the ones closer to my mom's house). I took a lot of AP courses through high school and even took the AP exams- these are all freshman college level courses that you gave a person a year or two early. The problem with the college? It's curriculum was better fit to people who took very low-grade classes. I took several sophomore level classes and was able to actually sleep through them, hardly read the text books, and still pass with B's or better (with the occasional C or D on one or two things)- when you can do that, then something is wrong. This is actually one of the mulitple reasons why I dropped. I asked if they had anything harder, they said no, that was the only level they could boost me to. I told them that what they just made me hack up $10k for was shit I learned way back down the line even all the way back into 8th grade. Even worse was I graduated from one of thee poorest and lowest grade high schools ever (we were lucky to make Class D) out of the entire area let alone entire state and kids from like Class A high schools were bombing these classes even when they did all of their work and studied hard. It was ridiculous. A lot of my classmates that I graduated with dropped the second semester and either left all together like me, or transferred out to a better college. It was a University, but it was better suited as a low class Community College over all. Just an hour west was another college, a tech university. That tech school blew the one I attended right out of the water and then some. Too bad I didn't apply there instead (nooooo I had to go pick a different major instead of a tech school one...)

Law/politics: My political science course in college had to be one of my best and personal favorites, plus it was the only one I didn't sleep through because our professor made the class not only fun, but well worth the money spent. Besides that, it was interesting to hear all of his experiences he's had as well. Having a professor that moved from South Africa (the British part of it) was pretty awesome. The accent made him a little hard to understand at times and because it was his first time teaching ever, he was very nervous- at least the students in his class were very nice. Psych...... well we had like 500 students in the lecture hall and a lot of us had the same opinion about the guy. Most of us stopped showing after he stressed how important it was for us to know and acknowledge that penguins were birds and that monkeys can learn sign language...... the sad part was, he was actually serious about that. Can we say "lol-fail" much? I think most of us learned that penguins were birds before first grade even... so about the age of 6 if not younger. Why he felt the need to stress the importance of a penguin being a bird to a bunch of people who were anywhere from 18-23, I have no idea, nor do I think I really want to know for that matter >_> Like I said, a bunch of us just stopped showing unless there was a test. Amazingly there were a few students that took a strikingly strong interest in the fact that a penguin was a bird- at first I thought they were doing it just to sort of poke fun at the professor, but eventually it became more clear that they too were very serious about the situation. Well... we can see just exactly what kind of attention span they had at least ^^;

Pyschology: The class I took in high school consisted of fun projects and a loony, crazy teacher that we all loved (I can't say the same for most of the other staff members of the school- often enough they'd come snoop around if the door was open and would peer through the glass when it wasn't, so he covered the glass and just kept the door shut at all times.) The topic itself isn't exactly a strong point for me, but there are some aspects that I like. It's definitely not my major though. My husband would be the psych lover, not me. I stuck to poli-sci more than psych.

Fursuits: Amazingly for how ADD I usually am when it comes to having the patience to actually do tedious work like this, I have the patience to sit there and create a fursuit. This also carries out to other types of sculpting, not just fursuits. The downfall to clay, however is my inability to make something tiny like a 3" tall sculpture. I can't draw small and I can't sculpt small, it just doesn't work (as a kid, writing was a problem and small was never an option- over the years the size dropped to a more normal one, but I still can't write in really tiny print like some can). These are just something fun I do to please myself and anyone else who cares to have one built by me. They're not out there to try and impress the world or anything, so when people get judgmental, it's really no big deal. I'm happy with my work (If I'm not, I go back and redo it), and if I did it for someone else and they're happy, well then I'm happy as well. All that matters is the person it was made for is happy. I don't make personal costumes for myself just to try and make the world happy, and on top of that, that's not the whole point of these things in the first place. They are created for personal enjoyment for the builders and the buyers, nothing more. Realistically I don't care about making butt loads of money off of them (If I did, why would I only have a tiny profit off every item and not care how many customers I get per year?) nor do I give two shits about being a world-renound builder. I build for myself and like I said, anyone who takes an interest in my work. Not everyone likes the same things, so if they're not interested in my stuff, then they are more than welcome to go somewhere else. I don't give a damn about competing with other builders and trying to hurry up and put them out of business. On that subject, why should anyone else? Why can't we all just build our own stuff and sell it? Does it really matter who is the number one builder in the world? No. To some, being number one is a way of life, and losing just isn't an option, thus they would like to crush every form of competition that's out there. Sorry, if you want a builder that does that sort of stuff, then please go seek them out, don't come to me and expect me to do the same thing as everyone else. My stuff is done my own way, just like their stuff is done their way. You want their style? Buy from them! Don't like the price? Oh well, find another builder who will build in their style for a cheaper price then. Like I said, I do my own stuff my way, not everyone else's way.

Conventions- These are a point of interest just because a lot of my friends go to them. What better way than to go to a convention to meet up with a large group of friends from all over the world? You only get a few days out of the year with them, so it's special. For the most part, these are people you don't see or can't see on a regular basis, so when things like Conventions or vacations come up, you try to find a way to get there to spend time with everyone. That's what a convention's all about- people who share a common interest come together for a few days out of the year to host a special event and have fun. It's that simple.

Marriage- Remember how fun it was as a kid to always play house and think about the dream mate that you'd marry some day? Well life isn't quite as fun as playing house (actually playing house was a hell of a lot more fun than actually living that life for real, but we can't stay kids forever Xp and in reality, I wouldn't want to either), but spending your life with your soul mate is about as rewarding as dreaming about it and playing house as a kid (it's more rewarding as an adult actually). Some will bitch and whine and cry 'Why on earth did you marry at that age?!'- It's not about the age, it's about the time already spent with the person. When you've spent just about every day of your life with the person, had them over for sleep overs (yes, this was a hard task to get accepted, but my parents eventually gave up because I was with him for so long so there was no point in saying no anymore- kind of like 'no harm done because what HAVEN'T they done by now...') and about the only time you had away from them were nights for 5 years of your life- why not? You are obviously attracted to each other and there's some spark of love there that just won't die, so why not get married and live together? People ask 'Oh how is married life? =3' or 'How do you like it?' ....... My answer every time around was 'What changed from when I was dating him?' Ok now we're literally together 24-7 and live together and so on, but other than that I don't love him any less than I did before. Sometimes I wish he'd be nice enough to not finalize a decision without me, but we all make mistakes.....just sometimes he can make really really costly mistakes >_< All of that aside, 99.9% of the time I'm perfectly content and happy with him. Whatever problems came up were worked out (he's a tough cookie, but with a little work you can get him to open up) just like before. He's loyal, loving, caring, provides for us (this part doesn't entirely make me happy actually, I'd rather us both be working instead of just one of us, but that won't always happen so what can you do until it does again other than deal with it), and most important- that feeling that you get when you think you're head over heels for someone is still there every time I get a hug, cuddle or just see him after a while of not seeing him (example given: coming home from a hard long day of work). If you still have the same feelings for a person now, almost 6 years later from the time you were asked out, something somewhere went right. He can be a pain in my ass, but that's our job- to love and annoy each other at the same time XD

There's actually about 50 billion other things that I like/love, but those are the key highlights of them all.

DISLIKES
This doesn't require details, just a short simple, to the point list =3 Be happy for that.

Rude people, computers (they're fun, but they can also piss you off when they start malfunctioning- thus you hate them at the time), being annoyed, being put down all the time, getting undermined, back pain, pain in general, I really don't like needles that much but I'll deal with them, really really ultra low bass (this actually messes with my ear drums), extremely high pitched noises (again, messes with my ears and eventually makes them hurt like hell), spiders (long story- trust me, it's not pretty), certain types of jokes, certain types of pranks, and sometimes certain things that my husband finds overly funny and yet I see no humor in it at all, boring movies, boring books, school, parents (I love my parents, but not when they constantly call up 24-7 just to 'check on me' or like my mom, try to contact me every 5 minutes then freak out if I don't respond or don't have cell phone reception or just simply don't have the phone on me at the time- it gets just a little too crazy at times), broken stuff- what the hell good is it if it's busted?, having things hit the truck and start breaking parts of it (so far a mule deer ran out and we couldn't avoid hitting it, a bad snow storm ran through and the snow sucked us into the side of the road so the passenger's mirror got smashed some, we've done a 360 on the road because of ice and got hung up on a large culvert, he hit a dirt pile at work which killed the plastic "splash guard" underneath *Why the fuck would you people make that kind of shit out of plastic?*, another snow storm caused us to spin and hit a snow bank that kind of helped finish ripping the plastic off the front bumper, and a Uhaul trailer popped off the hitch and scratched/slightly dented the tailgate), I also very much dislike people who hop from gallery to gallery and tell people how to run things/do things- aka people who think that no matter what, anything that they create in their head HAS to be the reality and everyone else MUST follow it (my mom does that...it's pathetic), people who are just all around perverts and their mind goes nowhere else (we're all entitled to our wisecracks and such, but there's a limit to what's funny and what's just wrong), people who find it amusing to harass others (how this is funny, I fail to see, but to each their own I guess), annoying people in general (example: person contacts me about something, asks a question, gets an answer, great fine- they got what they wanted, and then later come back to ask the same thing over, and over, and over), I also HATE having to repeat to 50 million people the same damned thing over and over- if you were too stupid to get it the first time, why the hell should i have to keep repeating it HOPING you'll eventually get it? I shouldn't-, general internet retards that have no life and nothing better to do than cause trouble- aka trolls, and lastly on the highlights of what I really don't like is plant food (meaning veggies/fruits)- there are only a few different things that I'll eat, but I'm more prone to things like meat (if you mix in veggies with this, then I'll eat them no problem) and sweets, I also very much dislike not being able to physically gain much muscle mass and having my back constantly go out of place because one muscle shifted in my side or something and yanked it out of order- it's very unpleasant and costly, but there's nothing that can be done because that just happened to be the way that I was built- so I need to figure out what causes the muscles to pull everything out of place, and just don't do that action (Do you realize how hard that is, especially when it could be anything like just lifting a box or a large bag of dog food? Anything with some significant weight to it that I lift does this.)

Ok that wasn't very short, but still.

If you want to hear something else, ask a question and I'll answer it. I've done enough typing for now XD
