Definition of FACT: something that actually exists; reality; truth: Your fears have no basis in fact.

I had literally no idea what FACTUAL article I was going to write, but I am going to somehow give you some facts one way or another. With minimum research carried I decided that I’d give you a FACTUAL synopsis of a part of my Little Loveless Life… (Notice I used an English term called: alliteration there?)

My life started in 1994, on March 12th. When my mother held me in her arms and showed me the world I would grow up in. She said to me one day, “This will all be mine.” – Because life is what you make it!

Who knew that years to come, I would face the pain of cuts and bruises, the pain of a broken heart and the pain of life itself? No one but God.

So here’s a little brief description of ME:

I am now seventeen, living in Northern Ireland with my Dad, Mum and Sister Debbie.

I have other Sisters who live over seas, Shaz, Abbi and Cherri.

Although I have not got a brother to protect me, I do have a male influence who is like the brother I never had, he is twenty-four and called Chris.

I am a Christian, a follower of Jesus, although I sometimes don’t act like it. I’ve been a Christian since I was eight years old, so I guess it themes in with “Day 8 of the challenge.” – Do you think the world is saying something here?

I’ve been writing since I was seven, because of my sister Cherri, who introduced me to Casualty Script Writing for the Casualty Forums On-line. My passion for writing is deep and emotional, I love Poetry because it gets me thinking and is a way to express emotions.

I think I am obsessed with TEA, but that is completely your decision.

I have a son, well a hamster/son who is called “Hamlet-Taylor Launter Cristin James Ashton Lucas Michael” – I became obsessed with adding names, but I think 8 names is enough!

So what have you learnt, other than DAY 8 fits in with:

The age I became a Christian

My Hamster has 8 names…

It took 8 months on a relationship decision…

I have 8 best friends.

Funny, how the number 8 is related.

TIP OF TODAY: If live gives you sour lemons, make tequila!

Oh a few more about me: I am currently in a relationship, which is going OK. It took me 8 Months to decide if a relationship is what I wanted.

My 8best friends are: Elizabeth, Joanna, Hannah, Megan, Colm, Chris, Sara and my twelve year old twin Jessica JR.
