Growing up I had an older brother that always looked out after me. I had a big name to stand up to. The Padalecki's. Dad was an actor and mom runs her own clothing line. My brother is five years older than me. When my brother, Jared, graduated high school he ran off to Hollywood to see about securing a job like dad. Of course dad had connections and got him some small parts to start Jared's career. I was going into 8th grade when he graduated. I was leaning towards becoming a veterinarian, not wanting to follow my families footsteps.

Pass through the next five years, now being a senior in high school, Jared has a great acting career. He just got casted as a main role in "Supernatural". I applied to several colleges, deciding that I want to go into IT. My family isn't happy, but I'm not looking to do what makes them happy. I've also been silently battling depression. I started by wearing long sleeved shirts whenever I was around people, but soon became aware that no one was paying attention. I cut, but never deep enough to need stitches, just enough to feel the pain I need to get the numbness to go away.

I graduated today with my Associates. Jared's contract got approved for five seasons so far, they've completed two. He wants me to come up to Vancouver to meet some of his cast mates and set up his website for his Always Keep Fighting campaign. I promised to go up next week.
