I have been using Reeves Watercolors for my paintings for as long as I can remember. What I precisely remember though is that I chose Reeves Watercolors because it the name was familiar to me. I have used Oil Pastels with a brand of the same name—I don’t know if they have the same manufacturer though. So with that reason, I chose Reeves Watercolors from among the many brands of watercolor paints that I saw in the art supplies shop. And I think I made a wise choice by doing exactly that.
Do any of you paint? What medium did you use? I have yet to try other mediums apart from watercolor and oil paints for fear of just wasting money on a medium that I will not even like. For those of you who paint, what would you suggest for a good medium that I can try?

My life has been dominated by teeth anatomy. My parents were both dentists so yeah; teeth anatomy was a pretty strong influence while I was growing up. Now I am studying to become a dentist so teeth anatomy and basically everything about oral health dominates my life at the moment. Do I get sick and tired of hearing, seeing and learning about teeth all the time? Well, not really. I love the line of work that I will be soon be part of and I love that my parents influenced me on this.
Would I like the same career for my future kids? Probably not; my parents did not force me to become a dentist like them and I intend to do the same with my future kids. They can be whatever they want to be when they grow up. If ever they decide to be a dentist as well, that would be awesome though.

Lately I have been thinking of how to be a firefighter. I really do not know where this came from because I do not think any one of my family members worked as a firefighter in the past. I think everyone was just really into business… So I really do not know how my parents will take the news of me considering finding out how to be a firefighter.
I think the first issue my parents will point out is me being a girl. Or me being a PETITE girl. Yeah I am pretty tiny—I am actually just 5 feet and 3 inches tall and because of that my parents and my two huge older brothers are quite protective of me. I do not think it will come as a surprise to my brothers if I tell them I want to know how to be a firefighter though, because they’ve always thought I was way too rough for a girl.
