hello australia, i'm valia jorgensen and i'm twenty-one. i'm here because i'm in love.

YOU'D NEVER SEE ME ..

pouring another cup of coffee. that place was hell but good things did come out of it. juda was always there regardless of whether i gave him any attention. i didn't understand the fascination but i didn't find him crazy. i believed it was adorable but i don't like to believe such things exist. i let him into my life and while i was terrified he was perfect. i fucked up and let him go and that's why i'm in australia where you will never see me pour another cup of coffee.

I'M TOTALLY ADDICTED TO ..

all the worse things in life. i was addicted to cocaine and while i wanted to quit i didn't think i was strong enough without it. i always felt weak when i wasn't taking my daily dose. i know it was all in my head but the only one to throughly push that idea through was juda. i felt that he was just out to ruin me but looking back i see he was only doing it because he cared.

I GET ANNOYED AS BEING STEREOTYPED AS A ..

a slut just because i'm a single young mother. apparently i must have been a slut if i got myself knocked up by age eighteen. i have a three year old daughter named raina and i wouldn't trade her for the world. i understand that my life could have been completely different if i would have avoided having sex and getting knocked up but i don't want that life. i love my child and i would do it all over again if necessary.

I FEEL MOST INSECURE ABOUT ..

my weaknesses such as my inability to stay away from drugs. i feel like i'm a weak person for that and i feel transparent as if everyone can see that. letting others see your weaknesses is not a weakness but a strength and it's scary letting people inside of you. falling in love is hard because you have to be strong and give complete trust to another. i guess i'm insecure about many things.

IF I COULD TRADE LIVES WITH ANY OTHER PERSON FOR A DAY IT WOULD BE ..

i can hardly handle my own life i highly doubt i'd be able to handle anyone elses but if we're just doing this for shits and giggles i'd happily trade lives with one of angelina jolie's kids for a day. i bet she's a bad ass mom.

THE LAST TIME I CRIED WAS ..

this morning, yes go ahead and judge me.

THE CRAZIEST THING I'VE EVER DONE FOR SOMEONE IS ..

moved to australia because i realized that i was in love.

I HAVE NEVER ..

sailed a boat.

I DON'T GET NEARLY ENOUGH CREDIT FOR ..

being well tempered. i know most people wouldn't guess but i can get pissed of rather easily but you don't see me taking a sailor's mouth about things. i try to keep my cool especially in front of raina because i know how impressionable children are at a young age.

THE MOST RIDICULOUS RUMOR I'VE HEARD ABOUT MYSELF IS ..

i stole my kid just to get attention and look like a "hot mom" because being a mom is well worth all the attention i get right?

IF I CAN'T SLEEP IT'S USUALLY BECAUSE ..

i'm thinking about everything or because raina is sick, crying, won't sleep.

IN FIVE YEARS I SEE MYSELF ..

with a steady job in a nice house with no worries.

parents ,,

clayton jorgensen is my father and i haven't spoken to him since he kicked me out at age eighteen. i know he cannot forgive me for getting knocked up and ruining his sweet little image of the daughter i should have been. i can't really respect him for his decision now that i am a parent myself. i would never desert my child in their time of need regardless of the situation. my father's a successful piece of shit that works in an office and hates his life all day. sometimes he likes to give himself the title of an engineer.

my mother, cecilia jorgensen, is a lot more understanding then my father and would often sneak visits to see raina and me. she still can't seem to tell my father that she sees me though and i think i've lost a lot of respect for her on that account. my mother's a school teacher at the local elementary school and is a kind hearted woman who can't seem to stand away from the shadow of her overbearing husband.

siblings ,,

none.

child ,,

raina elizabeth jorgensen is my wonderful daughter who i would not trade for the world. i love her like no other and that will never change. the bond between a mother and daughter is something surreal and i had never experienced it until now. she's three years old and she's my entire world. i love seeing her happy and hate seeing her cry. this little girl is the only constant in my life.
