Locations?

[TinyBrooke]

So I just returned from a trip to NYC with my drama group and the entire time, I was thinking, "What if one of the people from the EDS or EDSkids communities lives in New York, or is visiting at the same time?"
I'm from Tulsa, Oklahoma (no, I'm not a hick, and no, I do not live in a teepee or ride a horse to school, you can't imagine how many times I've been asked).
I've told you where I've from, now your turn:) :heart::spoon::heart::spoon::heart:

P.S.- I was hurting so bad this morning (today was the last day of our trip) that when we were at Ground Zero, I couldn't focus. I didn't feel any emotion. I know I should have, but it just wasn't there. It was just pain. I hate that I have no pain medication to prevent that or at least help when it does happen. BLEGH.

I'm from Suffolk, In England. It doesn't help that I have a Welsh last name, but I'm part Irish. Don't even ask about all that, I have a stupidly big family tree :(

[TinyBrooke]

Don't even get me started on huge families. My mom has over 60 cousins. I'm part Native American, part German, and half Californian (my mom doesn't know where her family comes from).
I've always wanted to go to England. I don't even know why, it's just always been a dream of mine. Maybe I'm destined to meet my soulmate there :huh:. Dunno.

[SophieeBabessxo]

It's Jones! That is soo weird!!
And I've always wanted to visit America! My family isn't that big though, fairly big :L

[TinyBrooke]

You should come sometime! I'd love to hang out with you!:smile:

[ReineDeLaSeine14]

I'm from Connecticut lol. I'm part Amish which for some reason doesn't surprise people.

[TinyBrooke]

Lol, nice Steph.
Yay, Connetticut!

[Katherine]

I'm from the Midlands in England, I'm part welsh, my dad's from London though - I know technically it just means I'm English bit I love London :)

[xxBrittany]

Steph- I am ex-Amish! :)

Also, I am 1/4 Native American & German decent! :)

[SophieeBabessxo]

I don't want to sound rude or mean or anything like that. but I've never heard of Amish?

[ReineDeLaSeine14]

The Amish are a gruop of Christians who mostly live in Pennsylvania but also live in other states. Because of their faith they don't participate in "worldly" things. Many don't use electricity, or cars, and dress in very plain clothing...basically they live like it's the 1800s. They don't have Social Security and don't participate in the military or the government. They believe in being separate from what they call "English" culture, which is our mainstream American culture

[SophieeBabessxo]

Oh right :) I've learnt something new today :D

[TinyBrooke]

Britt, I'm just wondering here, but how can you be ex-Amish? As in, you were once Amish and now you aren't? I have a confusion.
Aaaand it's weird that we're both Native American and German. And we have EDS. We could be related o.O

[xxBrittany]

Haha, Brooke, my dad's side of the family, where the Amish stems from was excommunicated from the group due to not wanting to follow their ways of life! So now, we are ex-amish!

And we probably are related somehow ahhaha!

[Arinai]

Wow this is from a long time ago. :P

I'm also from Tulsa, Oklahoma and Brooke and I actually go to the same school, which is awesome.

[xxBrittany]

I've always wanted to visit Tulsa! No specific reasoning, but I've heard it is quite neat!

[Johnna]

Wow I'm late on responding to this.

I was born and raised, and still living in Southeastern Michigan! I'm of Bulgarian, Hungarian, and either German or French decent (don't ask me why I don't know which it is, it's a long story).

I ended up marrying an Englishman, Stephen. He came here on his fifth visit to visit me and we ended up deciding we didn't want to say good bye again. I actually met Stephen the same place I met Timeless on. Stephen is from the West Midlands in England. =] We're currently both living in Southeastern Michigan. Stephen just got his Work Permit, and if all goes well, he'll also have his Greencard soon too. =]
