About me:
MySpace Layouts
I edited my profile at MsPremade.com. check out these Myspace Layouts!

Most people call me Vivian, but I’ve known a nickname or two. One special person calls me “babe” and another special person (much shorter than the first, with striking resemblance) calls me “mama”. I play with a “little prince”, but I don’t live like a queen. I plan events for money and try not to plan anything in my free time. I eat chemical free and love Starbucks. I just moved to Portland, OR from central FL. I joined a book club and a yoga class. I have a bunny and three chickens. We sold the family car so we could bike or bus everywhere. My son is scared of water and that makes me ashamed. Sometimes I put make up on to prove to myself that I still look 24. At this stage in life, I approach the world still very much a student of it- I find humanity and creation quite lovely and captivating, even in it’s strangest forms it can still be so heartbreakingly beautiful. I write almost as much as I talk, which I don’t think works the same way. You can’t say, “I write too much”, because most people find a person that writes a lot to be a lofty, high-brow character. I am not. Just the opposite, in fact. But I still write a lot, so there it is.

I miss you...

:(

I want to talk to you so bad. I feel like doing that thing we do every few years where we pull an all-nighter and get to be sisters again, lol. It's like we've both changed so much that we have no idea who the other is anymore.

And that makes me sad :(

Anyway, I lovelovelove you.
