My name is Teri, and I'm 27 years old. Here are 10 things you may or may not want to know about me.

1. I have 2 daughters who has taken over my life. I love her to death. I can't imagine life without them.

2. Music is a HUGE part of my life! I have to have something playing at all times. I love going to concerts and finding new music. I believe life would suck tremendously if there were no music.

3. I write. A lot. I write mostly poetry, but I am also currently working on a novel. I usually use my writing as a way to vent my frustrations and inner feelings. Some things simply can't be said. They must be written.

4. I love to read. Seriously. I buy way too many books. It's like my little escape. I will read almost anything... with the exception of romance novels.

5. I am working toward owning my own bookstore eventually. Of course, with the birth of my daughter, my plans have been pushed back a few years. I have high hopes, though!

6. I have been considering taking up photography. I love to take pictures, and I would like to do so with more skill (and a better camera!). I'm just not really sure on how to start.

7. I love tattoos. I only have one, but I want several more. When I finally lose my baby weight, I will reward myself with one. Hopefully this summer!

8. I really enjoy watching movies. I have found some really great ones. My collection is fairly extensive. I really love black and white movies and musicals, but my favorite genre is horror. I watch a lot of anime, too. I started with Gundam Wing and just went with it.

9. I am bipolar. It makes life somewhat difficult sometimes, but it really helps my writing. Good help is hard to find!

10. I am trying to find my place outside of being a mom. I lost myself with my pregnancy. I had the mindset that I had to change. You know, be more "mom-like." I am finding, though, that I can be myself and be a good mom. It will take some time.
