Were you a planned baby?
No.

Were you the first?
No.

Were your parents married when you were born?
My biological ones, no. Vivian's still not married but I hear my father is. Neither were Mom and Joanie. They didn't meet till I was about four or so and only had a civil union in August of 2007.

When is your birthday?
1 December.

Part 2: My Family

How would you describe your family?
We're all a little nutty but love each other tremendously. Mom (Annie) is very strong and to the point, with enough love to bottle and sell. Joanie is quiet and conservative and Grandma (Vera) is fun and silly but with a good heart. Recently, my twin brother Adam and I started really bonding and he, his wife Cheryl and son Alex are all amazing.

Are your parents married, divorced or separated?
They had a civil union in 2007 but have been a couple for 20 years.

Do you have step parents?
No but Mom's really my aunt.

Part 3: The Friends

Do you have more than one best friend?
Yes.

Who are your best friends?
Spiros (he's also my bf), Roxy, Cheryl (though she's more like a sister now), Adam, Karmen and James. Mom and I both understand that she's my mother but she's also my best friend.

What do you like to do when you are together?
Well, spiros and I go way beyond friends so we do everything, from sex, to hanging out, to a full-blown relationship. Roxy We're there for each other no matter what. I've never met in person cause she's in another state but love her unconditionally. I've never met Karmen either, as she's in Romania, but our friendship is lighter. Adam, Cheryl and I are family but love to hang out and enjoy one another's company. I haven't met James yet but we're gonna meet soon and do some computer stuff. Mom and I share almost everything but she respects my privacy.

Which friend can you tell anything to?
Pretty much all of them but especially Mom and Spiros.

that's my philosophy but I don't always put it into practice.

Was there anything in your past that was traumatizing?
Well, being born to a heroin addict, dying then being revived, and then going through 21 days of withdrawal only to become blind two months after birth is pretty traumatising. Thankfully, none of these things affected my mind. I'd also say finding out who my biological mother hit me pretty badly and it took years to really learn to live with it.

Part 7: The Future

Learn Greek, find a mangas, move to Greece and become a citizen, do something for my country and die old and happy. For now though, work on my lessons, get a job and move upstairs.
