after the 104th day

Finally, I caught up with uploading all the pictures.. not a small task. I'm happy that the site was released at the eve of Thanksgiving Day.

Now I can finally put some focus on the writings & the text of how I encountered everybody.

I do want to share some comments that came in via email over the Holiday weekend:

Hi, Renzo! It's Deb, from Trailer Park. I can't wait to check this out (after my Thanksgiving feast). Meanwhile, I'm inviting you to a party I'm having next Friday, so look for that evite. Hope you can make it!!

So to answer your questions, I decided to be apart of your project because I thought it was cool, and I like to help people.
My age may have had something to do with it, but I don't know why you picked me, maybe because I looked friendly, or because I was working at a concession stand and I'm supposed to be nice to people, lol.
I define young and old mostly on apperance, like gray hair and wrinkles. I have learned not to judge people based on thier maturity because I know small children that are more mature than 50 year old men, I judge maturity based on how people react to stressful situations, or the topics of conversation that they enjoy discussing.
I define insecurity as uncomfortable, feeling as if they are not safe, out of their comfort zone, for any reason.
I was in a pretty good mood when you asked me, probably getting a little tired, but in a good mood.
Occupies my mind, wow, well mostly school stuff, or Dairy Science Club things I need to get done, and or what I'm going to eat for my next meal. Other than that I try to get together with friends and hang out.
Play: something I don't do very often, umm read books, watch NCIS, ride horses, job shadow vets (my career goal), pretty much anything crafty, facebooking (lol).
For work I guess you could count my chores, when I'm home, and when I go to the vet clinics I work too. When I'm at college my work is my homework and studying for quizzes/exams.

A little more about me: I'm a sophomore at Iowa State University, majoring in animal science. I grew up between two homes, because my parents are divorced. My dad's is a farm, where I spent every other weekend, but it's the one I call home. My mom's is in town, Osceola. I grew up loving going to my dad's aka his parents' because I love animals, and I love working. There I could combine both of these, and hang out with my role model (my Grandpa). From there I decided that I wanted to be a vet because I love livestock and dogs, not so much cats though. I was pretty involved in almost everything in high school including band, FFA, 4-H, volleyball, and National Honor Society. All of these activities helped me learn to talk to people. I also babysat and did some housework for an older lady I met through one of our FFA fundraisers when I wasn't busy with other stuff.

So yeah, that's me, anythnig else you're welcome to ask!

What this tells me is that Lizzy really took the time out to answer the questions I posted.Thnak Would this be equivalent to answering some kind of a survey? Do I take time to answer surveys? Yes I do, especially when I know that there is a benefit.

Thanks Lizzy I appreciate it..

Cheers!
