thatgirlygirl's Interests
General
I have many interests. Perhaps my biggest interest is in being a smart aleck:
But I'm also interested in serious stuff like...
**Teen suicide is the 3rd leading cause of death among young adults and adolescents 15 to 24 years of age in the U.S., following unintentional injuries and homicide.
**On average, a young person (age 15-24) dies by suicide every 2 hours and 12 minutes.
**There are an estimated 8-25 attempted suicides for each teen suicide death; more females than males report a history of attempted suicide, with a gender ratio of 3:1.
**Four out of five teens who attempt suicide have given clear warnings.

You Are 68% Girly
You're a pretty girly chick, and you're not ashamed to admit it (or wear pink).
But you're also practical. You can hang with the guys, as long as they're not too gross!
You're the furthest thing from a princess - and you probably stay far away from any princess types you know.
You have an easygoing approach to living. It doesn't take a lot to make you happy.
And when life requires it, you're ready to get your hand a little dirty.
There's no problem you're too prissy to tackle!

thatgirlygirl is made of cool whip and awesome sauce
thatgirlygirl is a writer who lives in the Midwest.
You can find her online at
tgseale.com.
She has completed two young adult novel manuscripts, and is currently working on a third.
On the COMPLETE opposite end of the kidlit spectrum, thatgirlygirl has sold poetry, short stories, and nonfiction articles to various print and online magazines including Highlights for Children, Guideposts for Kids, Hopscotch, Spider, and Humpty Dumpty's Magazine. In addition, she has completed more than two but fewer than eight hundred picture book manuscripts.
thatgirlygirl likes spicy tex-mex, fast roller coasters, and people with a wicked sense of humor. If thatgirlygirl were a color, she'd be hot pink with yellow polka dots. Yeah.
This is thatgirlygirl, hard at work on the novel which will make her rich and famous crazy. She's already halfway there (to crazy), as you would expect of someone who regularly refers to herself in a most excellent third person narrative.
What Be Your Nerd Type?
Your Result: Drama Nerd
You sure do love the spotlight and probably have a very out-going and loud personality. Or not. That's just a stereotype, of course. Participation in the theatre is something to be very proud of. Whether you have a great voice for musicals, or astounding skills for dramas/comedies; keep up the good work. We need more entertainment these days that isn't television and video games (not that these things are bad, necessarily.)
Are you a writer? Reader? Librarian? Teacher? Current friend? Self proclaimed rock star? Someone I used to know? Someone who once borrowed a book from me but neglected to return it? Relative who still claims me?
Well then... You, dahlink. I've been waiting for YOU.
