About Me

I am learning who I am. I am discovering that the only thing that matters is that you are happy on the road you take. I am going to take an extended period of time attending school, traveling, and exploring life to find myself and write. This is going to be that adventure, and bits and pieces of my works in progress.

From One Random Act of Kindness to Another, with Love.

Hello all.. I'd like to draw your attention to a worthy cause:


Raising Donations and Awareness for the Lisa Santry Assistance Fund!
How many people have needed a helping hand in their lives?

How many of you have been blessed by that one act of random kindness by a stranger?

How many of you MY FRIENDS and FAMILY have dealt with a bad divorce, a bad relationship, ABUSE? Please consider helping whether it is $1, $5, $20 or whatever you can spare to the Lisasantry Assistancefund. I know we all give what we can to others in times of need.... ANY amount will help. Even if you can't donate please pass this forward so that maybe others can. Help us get the word out for this family. Thank you!

Please check this out @

All I'm asking is if you have a few spare minutes check out this site, pass it forward, or even donate. 










Thank you, from one random act of kindness to another.

35 days left

I have a little over a month left until I'm in Mexico! I'm very excited.  I have posted up at work a "Donate to The Feed Rachael in Mexico Fund" joke.  I have gotten my visa, I have gotten my shots (which by the way Typhoid freaking HURTS), I have booked my plane ticket, my hotel... I've done everything but get ahead on my homework. *panic* I am slowly starting to get to where I'm getting my groove with my classes/work rotation but it will drastically change once I'm abroad.  Right now 5 online classes with immense reading and research papers due in each one is an extremely daunting task - I am trying not to freak out when I realize I will need to do all of this while in a different country if I don't step it up.  My plan is to join a yoga class because I'm  a bit overwhelmed and I find that yoga relaxes and helps me center.  And then I will crank out an immense amount of research in the next two weeks to start my first drafts of all my papers. Otherwise things are good.  I am a busy busy bee with classes and work but I'm healthy, I'm happy, and I'm driving myself crazy (in a good way).  This is the extent of my newest updates. I'll post soon. <3

The Land of Entrapment


The Land of Entrapment

One hundred and seventy three miles south of Albuquerque, New Mexico there is a plateau that juts out of the mesa on the east side of the highway. In the middle of the plateau is a helicopter landing zone, unnoticeable from the highway as cars cruise by around 75 mph.  Deep inside the plateau is levels and levels of military base.  Top secret, undisclosed, denied, and hidden military testing occurs on this base.  This is where it will begin.

The official name of the program is Genome 37X.  The official study of the project is human genomes, contagions, and health studies.  The unofficial name of the program is the Zombie Farm.  The unofficial study is in the creation and mutation of human genomes by combing them with contagions to make the perfect military soldiers.  There is no outbreak or spread of a virus. It is not like the games or movies.  It is much quieter.  Completely unexpected and unnoticed.  In the Southwestern desert of New Mexico who notices when people start missing? Locals joke that it is the Land of Entrapment, and on that cool day in September it was.
