_____________________ all the world's a stage.

I was born on the thirty-first of January in nineteen-ninety-three to your basic normal family; normal parents, normal house, normal car. There was nothing special about anything in the new, strange world I had came into from my mother's womb.
I was completely oblivious to how normal the world I was in until I turned the age of nine years old. I constantly compared my life with television shows, the families in the newspaper about their wonderful, exciting life or how the wanted to adopt a child to make their life exciting.
My parents shook their heads at the thought of adopting a new member of the family (I already had an older brother, but he was only older by eleven months) when I asked them if we could be like the families in the paper. I wanted my life to be exciting, not normal or boring.
Since then, I have always tried something to make my life out of the ordinary, and some of them have worked. But, alas, my life is still, as you could say, normal.

When I was ten years old, I stumbled across a book that was hidden deep in the shadows of a library shelf. The cover that was covered in dust and cobwebs was a plain rustic gold color. It fascinated me, so I swept off the dirty particles on the cover by my bare hands and opened the book ever so slowly. In bold black black letters the word 'william shakespeare' was typed across the first page. I had never heard of william shakespeare when I was ten, so I was bewildered by the name imprinted on the book. I flipped a page and stared at the laid out chapters before me. It looked like an old story book full of different fairy tales. I slid my delicate finger under about a hundred pages then flipped the pages, curious to see what would happen next.
I took a quick glance at the page and blinked quickly twice as I read the first sentence of the story. I was utterly confused; the words didn't make any sense. Maybe, I had thought to myself, maybe I am just to little to read this book. But I still kept on reading the strange literature. I became deeply fascinated in the reading that I didn't hear my mother call me. She walked over to my side and gently touched my shoulder. I quickly shut the book like I had no business whatsoever in reading it, then I sighed of disappointment. She asked me what I was reading but I shrugged. She sighed and took the book out of my hands. I stood up quickly as she started putting it back on the shelf where I had found it. I whimpered while reaching my arms up to the book and pleaded for it back. She squeezed her eyebrows together while she looked at the book, her eyes getting wider all the while she stared at the name. My mother asked me if I wanted to borrow it and I nodded quickly.
I became attatched to the book (my mother had to buy it from the library so I could keep it); it fascinated me every time I looked at the words. After searching many words in the dictionary, I became familiar with shakespeare's writing and vocabulary. A few months later, I saw some teenagers reciting a midsummer night's dream. I was intrigued and the thoughts of preforming shakespeare's plays like shows on the television danced in my head. I smiled and asked my mom if I could somehow get involved with acting. She implied and I started trying out for commercials, plays, musicals, and t.v. shows. Pretty soon, acting became my life. And it still is.
My life is slowly changing from normal, to exciting.

wherefore art thou, romeo?

name. Haven Marie Winzesher

my parents wanted to think me as safe, and they thought the name haven had a pretty ring to it. marie is my mom's middle name; i have no knowledge to why marie is my middle name. winzesher is my father's last name. i believe it's polish.

age. seventeen years old

i was born January thirty-first in nineteen-ninety-three. i enjoy being seventeen; it's the perfect age for me. I am currently a junior, soon to be senior, in high school.

ethnicity. polish, german, french

i mostly have polish blood running through my veins, but i have some german and french in there, too. my nationality is american.

p.o.b. columbus, ohio

i was born in columbus, ohio. so was the rest of my family. we stayed in columbus for most of my life, but my sophomore year we made the move to clarksville, tennessee.

orientation. men

i'd prefer men over women any day. i just don't think girls with girls fit together very well. they're always just friends to me.

height. 5'5

i've never actually thought of my height before. i'm just thankful i'm not 6'. i'd say 5'5 is the perfect size for my gender and age.

weight. 127

i love food. i can't stand a whole day without it. i couldn't see how anyone could be anorexic. food is amazing, and i'm sticking with that perspective. but, i have to say, i love my fast metabolism!

build. slightly muscular, not super skinny

I don't think I have something abnormal. I have some muscles just because I have to walk my dog a lot, plus, I need stamina for acting.

posture. good

My posture is good, but not super. I'll sit and stand up straight as a pencil when I am paying attention to something, if I feel important or if I'm on stage. When I'm feeling lazy, though, I'll definitely slouch.

style. vintage, retro; sweatshirts, sweatpants.

I'm the type that you see in those retro skirts, dresses and ruffly shirts. I wear skinny jeans, too. They just can't be super bright colors, they have to be a dull color or jean material. If I'm not at school then I'm wearing jean shorts with a t-shirt or a sweatshirt.

hair. brunette. length is almost to the belly button in layers.

my hair is completely natural. i'm a brunette and i love it! i usually wear it down and it's usually straightened. but sometimes i let my natural wave style my hair or i'll just put it up in a messy hair do.

skin. tan in the summer, semi-pale in the winter.

future occupation. an actress.

status. single, sort of looking.

to be, or not to be.

overly sensitive. if you squish a spider, she will cry. if you tell this girl that she's dumb, ugly, bad at acting, or anything insulting, she will break down in tears right in front of you. you have to be careful what you say around her; she'll take what you say the wrong way sometimes.

bashful. she's completely shy and nervous when she first lays eyes on you. it's like the opposite of stage fright. on the stage, she's as calm as anything. off the stage, she's uncomfortable and timid.

thoughtful. when she thinks. haven thinks. she won't stop thinking for about five hours. it takes her about one and a half hours to fall asleep because her brain never shuts off.

sweet. she'll literally sacrifice her own life for anyone she knows. she listens to people who have troubles. she even feels depressed when she hears someone say there was a homeless dog looking for food. the downside from being sweet is because she never stops helping people, so she gets stressed out.

dramatic. she's an actress, what more could you expect? everything is an end of the world disaster.

dreamer. she day dreams all the time about her future, or even someone elses future. haven has add so this combination doesn't mix so well.

amused easily. if you give haven a dr. pepper can, she'll play with it. if you give her a single leaf of a tree, she'll make something out of it and she'll giggle. she'll even play with five year old children.

mature. she handles things as adults would do, but she does have some immaturity stuck in her head with her traits such as she is entertained quite easily.
