March 22, 200817 yr Name: Glynnis Pets: 2 budgies, 5 chickens Favorite Color: Blue Astrological Sign: Pisces Age: 21 Weakness: I'm a little shy :hap: I can't help but compare myself to others.

Strength: Enthusiasm and passion for the things that interest me - especially science. I love learning new information and skills, and am ever questing for knowledge. And I can handle a lot of stress. Favorite T.V. Show: Firefly, and Invader Zim Favorite Animal: I have to pick one? Live: Melbourne, Australia How long have been a BBC member: Longer than I thought! Almost two years. And I was lurking around for about a year before that. Anything else: I'm in my third year of studying veterinary science at university, and am on my way to becoming an avian vet. I love drawing, making plushies and playing my guitar (when I get the time that is!) I'm mad about birds - but I guess that goes without saying around here! Edited March 22, 200817 yr by Chrysocome

We now have a second semi-crane truck and a Western Star. Hubby is about to get out of driving and start doing "Escort/Pilot" vehicle work. Which means he will have more time to annoy me! As a family we love going camping & go away whenever the chance rises. I don't think there is too much more to tell. Now wake up!!!! and get back to it.
