Wow. It's time to welcome Miss Madison onto the interweb and hopefully, into your hearts. I go by MadisonInRainbows because I'm from one of the most hippie-est places on earth, Saltspring Island. Most people who've been there will understand that the place I come from is the biggest thing defining my personality. Saltspring only has a population of about 10,000 and is a small island off the coast of BC - between Vancouver and Vancouver Island. Growing up here is, well, it's a very interesting experience. Sometimes you love it, and sometimes you hate it.

Anyways. I guess for the most part, I'm an average 16 year old girl. I only have two siblings (brothers), but my mom has 8 brothers and sisters, and my dad has 4 so we have a really big family. Having a big family has also defined a lot of who I am. Like any person from Saltspring Island, I'm best described as quirky. Everyone here is pretty weird, but I like it.

Yeah, I'm kind of full of myself. I've been called cynical many times, but I'm not a bitch. I have a good sense of humor. I love photography, all forms of art, animals and soccer. I'm learning to play the bass guitar. I sometimes make really lame jokes, especially nerdy ones - I love computers - but I tend to make people laugh anyways. I aspire to be either a Secondary School english teacher, a veterinarian or a fashion designer. I know that these are all pretty far apart, but I think I can achieve any of them. Basically, you've got to admit that I'm pretty lovable.

Hanging out with my friends, being sarcastic, being cynical, laughing, complaining about things, learning about people, listening to music, playing soccer, thinking, reading, drawing, painting, Photoshop, sunglasses, fashion, buttons, stickers, videogames, pokemon, airguitar, life
