I’m Madeline C Lipscomb.  I don’t particularly like my name.  I was born on November 20^th, 1998, born and bred in Clayton, North Carolina. 

I am an avid dreamer and I constantly feel like I’m being held captive here.  All I desire is adventure and something new.  I wanted to travel the world and see new cultures and people.  However, I based everything I thought the world would be on stories and figured the great big world to be something magical and more than here.  I had made expectations for the world that I knew the world would never be able to live up to. 

My sensible, practical brain is always tormenting my creative mind.  I want to do all these things and go to all these places, but my brain is telling me that I should settle like so many other people.  I need an actual job to support myself.  End of story.  And then I thought of my long forgotten childhood dream of working for Disney, a place I knew was magical and adventurous.  Plus, it’s an actual job. 

So my new old dream is to be a Disney Imagineer.  However, I do still want to see the world, I just won’t have as big of expectations for it.  I also never want children or to be tied down.  I want to be free to create new things and write stories.  I believe life wasn’t meant to be lived in one place and I want to be able to move and do things without lifelong commitments like children. 

My ultimate goal is to be free and create new things.
