[/color]BASICS
what is your full name? nicknames? age? birthday?:
Randilyn Erin O'Connell
Randi or Lyn....Sometimes I hear Irish Chick which is annoying.
I'm Twenty years old.
My birthday falls on July 13th every year.
are you a brookwell high school student or a university student? oh, oops, are you a local or a teacher? if you are a teacher or a local, what is your job?:
I'm a University Student, I'm here to study Nursing.
how boring. let's get into the juice stuff, are you taken? married? in love? or are you single and free? and are you happy with your relationship status?:
I am currently Single and happy with it.
I don't do well with relationships so it's better this way.
where were you born? are you an american citizen or do you have citizenship in other countries as well? and what is your background, like your family background?:
I was born in Dublin Ireland and have dual citizenship because my mother is Irish and my father is American.
My background is simple, I spent the majority of my time in Ireland with my mother but summers were time to come to the states to live with my father for those months. I was never really one to get into trouble or fight with my parents. I was raised to be a strong woman with my own goals and dreams and to not let others take them from me or make me feel like I'm not important...which is a lesson I should have paid closer attention to because I've always put others before myself and I am a giver not a taker. My parents were loving toward me and friendly to each other, my birth wasn't planned and I'm the product of a wild night at a pub where they were both very drunk. I chose to come here for college because the program and because my mother's new husband is a bit...no not a bit very much a jerk. He has two kids of his own and they're horrible in the sense that they're always ruining my things and making me feel unwelcome. I figured getting away for awhile and stretching my wings out on my own would be a wise choice for me.
whats a typical day like for you? like, take us through your morning routine? do you even eat breakfast, you know it's the most important meal of the day, right?
My typical day is fairly simple?
Wake up and have a cup of coffee and maybe a piece of toast.
Get ready for the day like showering and dressing, makeup and hair.
Go to classes or work, depends on what day it is.
Come home and do homework or read a book.
Sometimes I order out for dinner other times I cook.
Go to sleep and repeat when I wake up.
I'm not really a party animal so I'm not always going out places but sometimes on the weekends I'll go to the soup kitchen to help out or maybe spend some time in a park or with friends.

[/color]POINT OF VIEW
what is your opinion on love?:
Love? Oh um...it's something that makes you feel alive and whole, but it's elusive and hard to find. Once you have it you either spend your life basking in the glow or get burned by the flames and hurt for years.
what is your opinion on family?:
Family is important, without them you have no one to support or love you and you can end up lost in your own life no matter how grounded and down to earth you are. They're at times not your favorite people on the planet but you always love them in some part of your heart.
what is your opinion on soul mates?:
They do exist, but not everyone's lucky enough to find them and live happily with that one person who's perfect for them.
what is your opinion on violence?:
It's...unnecessary and only leads to more trouble than it solves. Your fist isn't going to fix a problem, it's just a temporary relief.
what is your opinion on truth; does it even exist?:
Truth does exist and it's important to living a healthy life because lies will only stress you out and make your days filled with worry of someone discovering the lie. Truth is always the best answer.
LOVE LIFE
what was your last relationship?:
My last relationship? Um. Patrick Murphy. He was nice but it didn't work because he got bored of me.
who was the last person in your bed?:
Well the bed here that I use hasn't had anyone but me in it.
who was your first kiss?:
Cayleen O'Reilly. She was my best friend and we were both curious.
who was your first love?:
Cayleen O'Reilly. She was my best friend, and I just fell without realizing. She didn't return the feelings.
what's your biggest turn on? turn off?
Turn on? Um...
Turn Off would be not using protection or not seeming interested in more than just fucking me. I don't sleep around so that's not my idea of a god thing.
what exactly is your "type"? what do you look for in the opposite..or the same sex? are you heterosexual or homosexual?
I don't really have a "type" since everyone deserves the opportunity for love no matter what they look like or act like. For me it's more about making the connection with someone because if you don't connect it's pointless right?
I am Bisexual, I take interest in both girls and guys.

FAMILY
[/color]
how close are you to your family?:
Well I'm close to both my mother and father, but they're not really all that close to each other.
who are you closest to in your family?:
My Father. I only got to see him on the summers but he was always there to listen or support me while my mother was more interested in finding a man to make a "perfect family".
who can't you stand in your family? it's okay, we won't tell anyone:
My new step father and his children, I hate my step sister more than my step brother but both are horrible and so is their father.
what is your relationship like with your mother? father?:
With my mother it's more tradition, she was kicked out of her family for getting pregnant with me and keeping me when she'd slept with an American man who was only there on holiday. She's a little self-absorbed though so when I try to talk to her everything I say somehow becomes a lead-in for a talk about herself. I do love her though because she is my mother but I don't feel like I can talk to her. She's good to shop with though, she has a good sense of style and doesn't mind spending.
My father is the one I can talk about anything to and who supports me and helps me. He's the parent I'm closest too and that I want to make proud. The short amounts of time I got to spend with him growing up were hard because I would get used to having someone who cared and who could talk with me only to go back to my mother who was the total opposite in many ways. I love my father very much and I wish he'd find a nice woman to love.
how old were your parents when they met? how old was your mother when she had you?
My mother was seventeen and my father was nineteen. My mother had me when she was twenty.[/color]
