So, there's only one problem with me having a blog; I've had two before, and they ended up left in the dust. I didn't have very many readers and would always forget to write a new post. That and my life's just plain boring;)
I tried one about my homeschooling, and about baking, but neither succeeded. Maybe third time's the charm. I'm actually nervous about this, ha! There isn't much to be nervous about, though I'm terrified of being scrutinized and beaten down by a grammar nazi. I'm just gonna apologize in advance for any grammar mistakes, spelling errors, and old country idioms that don't make any sense.
Here goes nothing. I guess I'll start by introducing myself properly. My name is Eryka and I am a 17 year old homeschooler, future wanna-be wife, mother, and homemaker. I do want children, and I think (I may change my mind when the time comes ;}) that I want to have them all by home birth. I also want to homeschool my children; I am currently still homeschooling and I absolutely love it. I'm not the stereotypical "Jean-jumper wearing, unsocialized, sibling to 14" child, just a normal teenager with what I like to think are good moral values.
I am a Christian, and I'm not the best at it by any means, but I do try.
I am gluten-free (homeschooler alert!), but only because I am slightly allergic. I actually feel better when I don't eat wheat.
I am not very athletic, but I did karate for 3 years. I actually got my black belt and a world championship in sparring at my level.
I love baking cookies, reading, and babysitting.
Little secret is I'd like to be a model someday, but haven't had the guts to try out.
I sing a lot, not very well, but I attempt to.
I have an AMAZING boyfriend. He's really one in a billion. He treats me so well, sometimes I think I'm dreaming. He opens doors, buys dinner, cares for me when I'm sick, listens to me when I rant, holds me when I cry and puts up with me when I'm in that mood. Be jealous girls, I got one of the good ones.;)
I am in love with my pale mint green nail polish.
I speak partial German and some Polish.
I'm an extremely picky eater and am turning into a health nut.
Well, I think that's it... Except that I forgot I'm very clumsy. I can see God sitting there thinking, "Oh no, Eryka... That's not all." Aaaand then, I proceed to knock over and spill half a can of peanuts onto my laptop.
If anyone's out there reading, I'd like to learn more about you. Tell me more about yourself.
I really don't know how to quit writing. I'm just gonna leave. I'm off to find some beeswax and shea butter that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
