A lil bit a this a lil bit a that :)

How do you handle conflicts?

Okay so here's the deal I try hard to avoid any sort of conflict but obviously confrontations occur and normally the way I handle something is..basically if I have a problem with you..you better believe I'm going to say something to you. I think its pointless to talk shit about someone because if you feel something toward that person what good is it to say it behind their back? yes i've done my far share of talking shit and bad mouthing people but they mostly already know how I feel about them and I really could give a rats ass if they knew what I was saying or didnt. If you have something to say, say it and dont back down like a little girl. If someone were to approach me I would most defintley hold my own and say something back. noo guts noo glory.

Do you feel that your approach is effective? Why or why not?

I absolutley 110% feel this is the best way to handle any conflict life throws at you...or at least is throwing my way. So don't hate on me and I wont hate on you.

What is the Biggest problem you face?
I would have to say the biggest problem that I face now at like this very second would have to be my car has had a flat tire since monday and I still haven't gotten it fixed yet a week later. I should probably get on top of that too. Luckily I have great friends to drive/drop off/pick up my drunk ass. okay that just a slight problem I suppose but the real problem behind the reason it hasnt gotten fixed yet is because I got in a huge arguement with my parents last week and haven't spoken to them since i think its been 2 weeks or so now becauseeee I now work for my step fathers engineering company and I got drunk on thursday nite and spent the nite at a boys house and didn't wake up on time, well duh and didnt come home till 4 the next day so they are pretty much making me take of this lil tiff myself. I am so hating them right now...prob not as much as they are hating on me though.

Describe your childhood and home.
Well I kinda totally explained my whole childhood in my last blog for round 2 and not much has changed since that so I'll shout it out there again for ya.Wellllll lets see... my parents have been divorced since I was not even 1 years old so I never really grew up with both parents...well in the same house together at least. my mother who is originally from Greece had full custody of my older sister and I and my father had visitations on Wednsdays and weekends. My Mom, my sister, and I lived with my grandparents and my aunt for about 10 years or so until my mother could afford to buy us our own house. My mom never went out on dates never had time for herself we were her number one priorities and she worked hard to support my sister and myself. She always had us involed in Greekschool ( I know I know it was hell!) and we had to go to church every sunday and attend Sunday school and we HAD to have perfect attendance or else! Also church was always a HUGE part of our lives because my uncle and my cousin were the preists of our church so we HAD to have our family look good by going all the time. Even though I "always had to go to the bathroom" but really went upstairs in the gym and hung out with my friends or sneaked outside and smoked ciggs (we thought we were so cool at 12)But my mom always meant well and I love her so much for sacrificing everything for us.
My father always had my sister and I involed in sports. Sometimes we would be on 4 teams in one season and had to juggle between practices and games. I have to admit I did love playing soccer softball and basketball but I was physically drained out. I always had to be the best one on the team and I always had to make it to every practice and every game. We always had to travel to different tournaments in different states. It was just a lot for a young girl to take in. As a result of all the running around my father had us doing my schoolwork was majorly affected by this. I had no time for my studies whatsoever so I was never really top notch in school. I was always the tomboy and always got picked first for the girls in gymclass.
Also my father was a gambler which was one of the major reasons why my parents got divorced. So I basically remember my childhood always being in Atlantic City with my sister having free comped rooms and free food. He used to leave us either in the room or in the pool while he was at the tables. And if we needed him we would have to page him over the loud speaker. We were to young to realize how major his problem was but it was huge. Sometimes he would emotionally abuse my sister and I by making us feel like we weren't good enough at anything we were doing. After a while you just get sick of having to deal with the abuse.

Describe a major issue or event that has affected your family.
I would have to say the most major problem my whole entire family had to sadly go through was about 10 years ago when we found out my little cousin George who was 6 at the time got diagnosed with a brain tumor. He was the cutiest little boy in the whole entire world he always somehow made someone smile and with our hopes,prayers, and support from his loving family he fought through it. He will never be able to do the things most people can do he is still a little slow and has a hard time understanding things but we are so thankful to still have him with us. xoxo.

Describe yourself as a competitor.
As a competitor I would HAVE to say I am very competitive. Not a long the lines as to where which friend looks better or who gets the most boys or whatever pretty much In any sport or arguement I ALWAYS have to win. Thats just how I was brought up and thats just how I do. So if you think you'll get the last word you got another thing comin to ya.
