My name is
Krista, and I'm
23 years old. My birthday
is in August, which makes me a
Leo~~and boy do I ever fall into that sign category! My Chinese
sign is also the
Tiger, which I would say also fits me fairly well. It's weird thinking about kids these days growing up being
born in 1990's and not the mid/late 80's. They missed all those fun cartoons! :(
I'm a full-time nerd working part-time at
Staples and getting my groove on via
AIO.
I live in the mostly rural area of Milford, Pennsylvania with my fiancé John.
Milford is, as some would call, "the town" of
the local area. Everything else is pretty much the styx and the most local "hang out" is the 24x7 Wal*mart. Classy, right? There's
little to nothing to do here and that really always bothered me. It's very pretty in a country sort of way, but also very solitudous.
I yearn for big city skylights and the rush and wave of the sea-shore!
I spend my days writing, reading manga and coding web design with
AIO. There's also my
personal studies of
Japanese, and my other unusual hobbies. Some of those include photography, desktop customization,
reading (I love Vampire novels!), drawing (mostly sketches--I suck at coloring...), and watching television/movies via internet
(thank god for Broadband!).
There's not much else to tell about me. I'm a simple person; I like to be kind and help others, and I try to have a positive outlook
on life. I'm pretty easy-going; it's hard to care about idiocy, and I try my very best to ignore it. I read a lot, so sometimes
that makes me seem like a know-it-all, but in actuality I'm just way eager to share my knowledge to help people.
I have no toleration for injustice and seeing people baring down on others who don't deserve it is
enraging to me. I guess this is
why most of my heroes are known for representing love, truth and justice: L. Lawliet, Sailor Moon, Anita Blake.

My name
Name Meanings
The first name of Krista leads you to assume considerable responsibility and to prefer to work independently, without direction or interference from others because you have very definite ideas of your own. Your mind is quick to comprehend and you can be
depended upon to do any job well. Because you tend to be somewhat of a perfectionist, you might insist on doing too many things yourself instead of delegating jobs to others who might do less satisfactory work. This name does make you quite direct and straight-to-the-
point. Your verbal expression does not reflect your inner thoughts and feelings, and you often wonder why people react to what you say. The influence of this name does not promote the friendship that you desire or the relaxation and naturalness you should enjoy with
people. It is a name that makes you far too practical and serious-minded, and makes it difficult for you to act with spontaneity. You could suffer physically through head tension, with eye, teeth, or sinus problems, headaches, or mentally through worry.
Meaning taken from kabalarians.com!
Your name of Kris gives you a very happy-go-lucky, spontaneous nature. You see the humorous side of many situations and can laugh at yourself as well as at others. This name gives you a musical, artistic nature and you would do well in any occupation in the
entertainment field. You have many friends because of your generous, happy nature, but if crossed you have a quick temper, although your annoyance does not last too long. You do enjoy an argument and will at times say things just to get others going and then you sit
back and enjoy the debate. You lack system and order and find it very difficult to budget and save money. This name creates a nature that can be the life of the party, but many times you can become involved in emotional situations against your better judgment. Your
compassionate nature causes you to be too generous and you often give more than you can afford to. You are too fond of sugars and starches, thus you could have a weakness in your liver, kidneys, or skin, creating pimples or eczema. While this name gives you a
wonderful personality, and attracts much love and friendship, it is far too emotional and scattering an influence and will not allow the material accumulation nor personal happiness you should have.
