Believe it or not living on the desert we didn't have electricity or indoor plumbing.

I love music, I can play the drums. I also play around with the guitar. I can play a few songs on both. I'm not really into like one type of music, I like it all. It kinda depends on what kind of mood I'm in. I love sports too, Basketball, Baseball, Football, and Nascar ( GO JIMMIE JOHNSON!!!) I like it all. My favorite is Hockey I love the Detroit Red Wings. So as most of you know by now Amynalan4 is my mom, and Mygoodn3 is my grandma. For those of you who didnt know, now you do!!..lol.
