Who I was and who I have become are two different things...
Name: Rebecca Lynn Oaks

Snail Mail Addy:
Rebecca L. Oaks
somewhere in the Midwest
Can you understand me? (The Origins of Beccaspeak)
Stuff About Me (You Don't Really Need to Know)
Credo
I can't live to please you
If I don't get to please me
Don't push me down
You'll see it's futile
I'll rise again
Like a true believer
Surfacing like a mermaid
Discovering a world I never knew...
Daddy was wrong before:
The world can't hurt you
If you don't let it
The world can't push you down
If you go ahead and push back
The mountain won't beat you
As long as you keep on climbing
Love will never defeat you
As long as you keep on surviving
There's more to life
Than the opinion of someone
Who never stops to listen to you
Or makes an attempt to understand
Forgive, forget...and move on...
Surfacing, surfacing
I find myself as free and fresh
As a warm summer breeze after a rainstorm
A little respect for you
Lots of respect for me
The whole world can go to pieces
As long as I'm free
To be who I am inside...

Sometimes these are not enough to make things work...
My interests are: acting, singing, writing, painting, drawing, reading, cooking, listening to music, entertaining my nieces and nephews, going on long walks, photography, stargazing, killing houseplants, dreaming, and looking for peace wherever I can find it...
Things that annoy me: liars, people who can't see beyond their own self-righteousness, insensitive pricks, people who try to force me to think the way that they do, people who can't forgive, people who won't respect my ideas, bigots, Raiders fans, politics, hypocrites (especially the religious variety), fiber, my own flatulence, expensive cable, PMS, morning sickness, and my ex-husband (even though we're still friends)
Things that I hate: I prefer things that annoy me...see above...
