Hi, I’m Alicia! I’m from Missouri, a state in the USA. I’m 17 and in my last year of highschool.  I have red hair that’s a bit longer than chin length and green eyes. I’m very short; only five feet tall. (150 centimeters) Yes, I’m small. =P

I’ve lived in Missouri all my life and I haven’t got to travel any, except to a few states. I hope someday whenever I’m older I can travel the world. It would be amazing to see many beautiful places.

I have a hard time describing my personality because it seems like every person I talk to says something different about me. One person may call me outgoing but then the next calls me shy. I think it depends on who I’m speaking to. When different people come together it always creates a unique outcome! You can decide for yourself what you think my personality is like. =]

I live with my mother, stepfather, sister, and stepbrother. My sister is a year younger than me and an absolute genius.  My step-brother is six months younger than me. He’s a trouble maker and womanizer. I love my family and I’m glad it’s a very caring one.

When I’m older I wish to work in an orphanage in China. When I go to college I plan on getting a degree in Social Work and then I will go to China to work for a few years. I’m very interested in the Chinese culture for this reason and I have recently started studying the language.

I care a lot about the people of the world. I wish I could travel all over and help the poor, the cold, the hungry, and the lonely. Everyone deserves to be loved.

I will answer anyone who talks to me. I don’t care about your age or if you’re a boy or a girl. I would like to talk to everyone so don’t feel shy about messaging me. Also, I am willing to help people with their English, both written and oral.

I have a special interest in China, so I would especially like to be friends with people from China. Hopefully I can learn more about the culture.

I’ll talk to people in whatever method they prefer; email, IMing, snail mail, or on here. My personal favorite is snail mail though. It would be amazing to receive a letter that has traveled so for just to reach you , in my opinion.

So go ahead and message me! ;)

I’m fluent in English, as it is my native tongue.

I just started learning Chinese and at this point I can’t put a sentence together. :(

I love talk about politics and government. Debating politics is one of the things I love to do. I don’t think any government is bad as long as they’re working for the best interest of the people. It annoys me when people think they’re government is right and everyone else should be like them. (I also believe Americans are very guilty of that way of thinking.) There is no right or wrong, or at least there is no clear line.

Astrology is another one of the things I love. In Western Astrology my sign is Sagittarius. In the Chinese Zodiac my sign is the horse. (Also my blood type is O!) I don’t know how deeply I believe in astrology but its fun to see how well it matches up sometimes.

When I’m not with friends I enjoy reading and writing. I believe I am definitely more introversive because I rather curl up with a book and read it then go out (usually).

"The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.
The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference.
The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference.
And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference."

You could cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again I would understand"
