Me:
My name is Lisa. I was born on June 30th, 1983 and I'm 22
years old as of May 17, 2006. I live in Jacksonville, North Carolina with my
husband, Ed, who is a Private First Class in the United States Marine Corps. We
were married on March 14, 2006 in Rahway.
I was born in New Jersey. My mother, sister and brother live
in West Orange. I have two nieces (my sister's) and a nephew (my brother's). I'm
the youngest of the three of us. In NJ, I have a black-and-tan miniature
dachshund named Itchie and a Mexican gelding named Shada, whom I board at Echo
Lake Stables in Newfoundland, NJ.
My three Internet sisters are
Ashley "Snowhawk"
Venable, Andrea "Banrai" Brooks,
and Nikki Jeski.
In my spare time, I hang with Ed, read, write, draw, watch TV and movies,
play video games, listen to music, and fiddle about on the Internet. I have a
degree in Web Design from Berkeley
College (West Paterson, NJ not California). I hope to start my own book
series in the future starring the
Unicorns of Alnilam.

The Name:
"Planet Alnilam". Sounds odd, doesn't it? Well, here's
the story:
My alien alter ego, Alien Lisa (AL), needed a planet to
originate from. Whenever I looked up at the sky, I'd look for the constellations
I knew. Only one came easy: Orion. I wanted something easy to find, so I picked
the middle star in Orion's belt. I looked up the name and found out it was
Alnilam (the star on the left is Alnitak and on the right is Mintaka, if you
wanted to know). I decided that she'd come from a planet orbiting that star and
shares its name, however, the planet itself would be hidden from those who don't
know it exist, such as scientists and astrologers using the natural magic of
those that live there.
The planet Alnilam is almost identical to Earth, except the
vegetation is multicolored and the water is silver and crystal clear, so clear
one can see to the bottom of the deep ocean. The sun -- the star Alnilam -- is
golden. The planet itself is divided up into main parts: small meadow (where
AL's house is located), the forest (where Woodhorn patrols and the Gates to
other worlds and Janis Thorn's home can be found), the large meadow (where most
of the unicorns reside), the jungle (where there is a specially created and
maintained environment -- run by Kamelion, a color-shifter -- for the creatures
that once roamed prehistoric Earth), the ocean (where Atlantis, a mernicorn,
lives), the mountains (where there is at least one dragon), and the volcanoes
(that Magma, Master of the Volcanoes, controls).

Currently, I am registered with
Active Web Hosting. I picked them
because my friend, Nikki, registered her
site with them and had no complaints. Nor do I. My mom bought PlanetAlnilam.com
for me on July 22nd, 2003.
